About the iPronto  
Wirelessly connected to the Internet, the iPronto is a must-have for your home entertainment experience. With its  
dashboard you can easily access all iPronto’s applications. The dashboard offers access to three basic applications:  
the Remote Control, the Electronic Program Guide and the Browser, however, you will be able to add new applications  
to the dashboard in the future.  
With iPronto’s universal Remote Control you can operate almost all your devices, as long as they understand  
IR (infrared) signals. And because of its intuitive interface, iPronto is easy to use for everybody.  
But iPronto is not only a Remote Control: it also has an Electronic Program Guide. Without any effort you always  
have an up-to-date and customizable Program Guide for your favorite channels. What makes this Electronic Program  
Guide so unique is its direct interaction with the iPronto’s Remote Control. No more wading through pages of program  
guides. Get the information you want fast and start watching your programs immediately by tapping one single button.  
You are watching TV and would like to see sports shows? Using the EPG, you only need one button press to surf  
through the channels that are broadcasting sports at this particular moment.  
The iPronto is also provided with easy Internet browsing functionality. With the browser application it is now  
possible to connect to the Internet while you sit back and relax in front of your TV.

Installing the Wireless LAN Adapter  
In a wireless network, the Wireless Access Point (WAP) is the last point that is connected to your network with wires.  
To communicate with your iPronto, the WAP sends out RF (radio frequency) signals, which spread in all directions. The  
iPronto’s Wireless LAN Adapter (also called PCMCIA card) receives these RF signals and sends RF signals back to the  
WAP.  
The first thing you do when you take your iPronto out of the box, is installing this Wireless LAN Adapter. In the  
following illustrations you see how the installation works:

Open the Wireless LAN Adapter cover by pushing in the grips and sliding off the cover in the direction  
indicated below (figure 1).  
Insert the Wireless LAN Adapter in the socket, as indicated below (figure 2).

Installing and Recharging the Battery  
Recharging  
The iPronto is provided with a power adapter to recharge the battery.  
It is best to fully recharge the battery. It takes 2 to 3 hours to recharge the battery. Recharging automatically stops  
when the battery is full.  
If you recharge when the battery is completely empty, you might lose some of your settings.  
In normal use, recharge every 2 days. When you use the iPronto very frequently, recharge every day.  
You can use the iPronto while it is being recharged. While the battery is being recharged, the Status Display shows a  
full battery indication.  
Plug in the power adapter as shown in the illustration:  
The first time you put the battery in the iPronto, the iPronto will  
start up automatically and guide you to the System Settings.  
This may take 1 to 2 minutes. Continue with the next chapter,  
Getting the iPronto Up and Running, to adjust the settings.

Using the iPronto  
Once you have adjusted the general settings and network settings, you can start using the iPronto. In this chapter you  
read how to operate the touch screen, what the hard buttons are for and how you can use the iPronto’s applications  
and functions.  
The Touch Screen  
You can operate the iPronto touch screen in two ways. One way is to use the plastic-tipped stylus, specially designed  
for use on a touch screen. The stylus is very useful if you want to tap a small area on the touch screen, because it is  
very precise.  
Warning Never use an actual pen, pencil or other sharp object. These objects can damage the touch screen.  
You can also operate the touch screen with your finger. This is less precise than using the stylus. However, you may  
find it more comfortable to use your finger on the touch screen.  
The Status Display  
Below the touch screen, the iPronto has a small screen. This second  
screen is always on, even when the iPronto has been switched off.  
It displays the time and battery status.  
RF icon  
clock  
IR icon  
The status display also displays an RF icon and an IR icon.  
Whenever the iPronto is communicating over your home network,  
the RF icon is on. The IR icon gives you feedback when you are  
using the iPronto’s Remote Control: every time you tap a button on  
the touch screen or press a hard button that sends an IR code to  
your device, the IR icon flashes.

The iPronto’s Power button (located on the left side of the iPronto) is used to switch the iPronto on when it is powered  
off. In the System Settings you can decide on other options for powering on the iPronto. See Adjusting the Power On  
Settings on page 19.  
You can also use the Power button to switch the iPronto off at any time.  
The Remote Control buttons  
The iPronto has five buttons on the front panel. They always operate the iPronto’s Remote Control (RC): When you are  
working with the iPronto’s Electronic Program Guide or browser, these buttons will still have RC functions. By default,  
the RC buttons have the following functions:  
You can change these default functions with  
the iPronto’s “learning” tool. This means that  
the iPronto will learn an IR (infrared) code  
from the existing RC of your device, for  
instance your TV. See Learning IR Codes on

can differ in different layouts.  
For more information on System Settings, go to Getting the iPronto Up and Running on page 14.  
Note  
You cannot modify the Application Settings of layout 8 (the iPronto Portal).

The Keyboard  
The iPronto is provided with an on-screen keyboard. You need this keyboard to enter text in text boxes, for example to  
enter a URL in the browser.  
When you tap a text box, the on-screen keyboard automatically appears. A greyed out text box indicates that you  
cannot enter text in it and that there is no on-screen keyboard available.  
The on-screen keyboard has its own text box, which displays the same text as the application’s text box. Depending on  
the text box that you tap, the keyboard’s text box consists of either 1 (for example when you enter a URL) or 3 lines (for  
example when you fill in a form on the Internet). When a one-line text box appears, you can only enter one line of text.  
When a three-line text box appears, you can enter multiple lines of text. If your text consists of more than three lines, a  
scroll bar appears.

The Remote Control  
In this chapter you can find general information about the iPronto Remote Control application. You can find detailed  
The iPronto Remote Control (RC) is a universal RC. This means that it can be used for virtually any audio and video  
device, such as a TV, VCR, DVD, CD and so on. As long as your device understands IR codes, the iPronto RC can control  
it. This way, the iPronto RC replaces the individual RCs that accompany your devices.  
You access the iPronto RC via the touchstrip: Layout 1 is a RC. See Layouts and Touchstrip on page 30 for more  
information.

How Does the iPronto RC Work?  
The core element of the iPronto RC is its “configuration file”. This iPronto Configuration File or iCF determines what the  
interface on the iPronto RC looks like and how the iPronto RC behaves.  
The iCF stores several predefined devices. These devices represent your existing remote controls. Each device consists  
of one or more pages with buttons on them.  
By tapping the iPronto icon you can go back to the Home page (the Device Overview). You can access the devices  
from the Device tab or from the Device Overview. When you tap a device in the Device tab or in the Device Overview,  
you immediately jump to the first page of that device.

The Remote Control  
Learning IR Codes  
The iPronto RC sends out infrared (IR) signals to your devices, which will execute an action, for example “TV On” or  
“VCR Start Recording”.  
For every action the iPronto sends out a specific IR signal, called an “IR code”.  
The iPronto RC contains a huge database that contains numerous IR codes for all  
kinds of devices.  
The iPronto RC is set up by default to operate Philips and Philips  
compatible devices. If you have other brands, the iPronto has to  
“learn” the specific IR codes for your device from the existing RC that  
accompanies the device. This means that you press the button on the

The iPronto RC will learn the IR code from the existing remote  
control. You can learn all soft buttons and hard buttons on the  
iPronto.

electronic equivalent of a printed television program guide. But the iPronto’s EPG is not a regular EPG: It is unique  
because of its direct interaction with the iPronto’s Remote Control. While browsing through the Electronic Program  
Guide, you can immediately switch your TV to the channel.

In the filter settings you can select the genre, date and time to obtain information about programs in the future.  
You can choose a day and the time of the day (morning, afternoon, evening and night) from dropdown lists or you  
can set the exact time with the + and buttons.  
If you tap the  
button, the EPG data will automatically display the programs currently playing of the  
genre(s) you have selected.  
In the program overview the list of programs that meet your selection criteria, which you defined in the upper  
part of the screen, appears.  
The detailed information for the selected program is displayed in the left part of the screen: subject, actors, start  
and end time, and so on.  
For example, tap the Movies button and select Wednesday Evening, 8:00 PM in the filter settings. A list of movies that  
are playing at that time on Wednesday will appear in the program overview. When you select one of the movies in the  
list, a detailed description will appear in the left part of the EPG.  
The EPG has two power features:  
The Watch Feature  
When you select a program in the program overview, you can immediately surf to this program with the  
button.  
This Watch button only appears when you select a program that is currently playing on TV.  
The SmartSurfer  
When you are displaying a list of programs that are currently playing in the program overview, the  
buttons  
appear. With these SmartSurf buttons you can easily surf through the programs in the list. For example: if you want to  
watch sports but not drama or home shopping, then tap “sports” and flip through only what you want to see: football,  
soccer, baseball, tennis, car racing. With the SmartSurf buttons your TV will simply surf through the sports shows that  
are on TV and it will skip channels that do not broadcast sports shows, even during commercial breaks.

Troubleshooting  
In this chapter you can find some useful instructions to solve problems that you may encounter while using your  
iPronto. You can find more elaborate and frequently updated information in the Frequently Asked Questions section at  
The soft buttons on my touch screen do not respond properly  
It might happen that the buttons on your touch screen do not respond properly, for example when you have to tap to the  
left of the button instead of on the button. In this case, you should recalibrate the touch screen. Calibrating enables the  
iPronto to place the icons on the touch screen in line with their functions. See Calibrating the Touch Screen on page 16.  
My iPronto switches off automatically  
The iPronto has a power off time out function to save power. You can change the power off time out in the System  
Settings. See Adjusting the Power off Time Out on page 18.  
Devices do not respond to the commands I send  
Make sure to point the iPronto’s sending eye towards the A/V or home control device.  
Make sure there is no obstruction between the iPronto and the A/V or home control device.  
Check the battery status in the status display.  
Check if your device understands Philips IR codes. You can find this information in your device’s manual. If your  
device does not understand Philips IR codes, you can:  
Learn the IR code from the existing remote control. See Learning IR Codes on page 38.  
Define a new brand with iProntoEdit. See Using iProntoEdit on page 41 or consult iProntoEdit Help in the Help  
menu of iProntoEdit on your PC for more information.  
Make sure the RF settings are set correctly. You can check the RF settings in iProntoEdit.  
If you operate the A/V or home control device without the NetX, the RF settings should be set to IR enabled.  
If you operate the A/V or home control device with the NetX, the RF settings should be set to RF enabled.

Troubleshooting  
I have activated the EPG application on my iPronto, but it still does not work  
When you subscribe on line for the iPronto EPG, you obtain an activation key. You should enter this activation key in  
the EPG settings within a limited period of time after subscribing on line. See Activating on page 54.  
If you do not activate within this period of time, you will have to get a new activation key from the EPG online  
subscription pages.  
When your EPG does not work, something might be wrong with your time, date or timezone settings. See Setting  
up Your iPronto on page 16.  
The Watch Feature and the SmartSurfer of my EPG application do not work  
The Watch Feature and SmartSurf buttons only appear on your screen when “Now” information is displayed.  
Because the Watch Feature and SmartSurfer automatically surf between channels on your TV, you have to “tell”  
them how to surf channels. There are several ways to surf, for example with a 10+ button, an Enter button, and so  
on. In the EPG settings, you determine the way that your TV changes channels.  
See The SmartSurfer on page 48.  
The Watch Feature and SmartSurf buttons will only function if the Watch Device selection mechanism on your  
iPronto RC functions properly. Test whether the Watch Device selection mechanism functions correctly in the Watch  
Device of the iCF of the RC. If necessary, “learn” the IR code for the button (10+, Enter, ...) or use iProntoEdit to  
attach the correct IR code from the universal database.  
See Learning IR Codes on page 38 and Using iProntoEdit on page 41.

The iPronto browser does not display web pages the same way as the browser on my PC  
Most web pages are optimized for viewing with a Netscape or Internet Explorer browser. That is why pages may look  
different on the iPronto browser.  
The iPronto browser has some limitations compared to a regular browser.  
The iPronto browser supports images of the .gif, .jpg and .png types.  
The iPronto browser does not support popup windows.  
Plugins are not supported. This means that you cannot download graphics, audio and video files.  
You cannot make a list of favorites or bookmarks.  
Cookies are only stored if there is enough memory available.  
The iPronto browser uses a different type of JavaScript than a regular browser. Therefore, some pages may be  
displayed differently or may not be displayed.
