Using the Iomega TV Remote Control

The Iomega TV remote control includes standard navigation controls on one side for browsing and playing media files and selecting options in Boxee. The other side has a full QWERTY keyboard for entering text, search terms, or web URLs.

To use the QWERTY keyboard, turn the remote control over and press the Unlock key on the lower left of the keyboard. This unlocks the keyboard and locks the navigation keys. After using the keyboard, press any key on the navigation side to unlock the navigation/player controls.

NOTE: Always point the remote control towards the receiver on the front of the Iomega TV.

By default, the keyboard enters lowercase letters. To enter a single capital letter, press and release the CAPS key, then press the desired letter. To enter multiple capital letters, you need to press and release the CAPS key before each letter you want capitalized.

To enter an extended character, press and release the ALT or ALTGr keys, then press a letter key to select the color-matched extended character on the key. As with capital letters, you need to press the appropriate Alt key each time you want to enter an extended character.
