How to Test Your IF Remote

To test if the light is defective in your infrared remote look through a digital camera with the remote pointed toward the camera lens. Push a button and you should see the light blink. If you are older please do not push the fast forward button . Alas the rewind button doesn't work either.

That will work and will not hurt your eye.

That gives me a great idea. Turn on a digital camera, open the refrigerator door, put the camera in, wait a few minutes and take the camera out. If you see any critters in there feasting, you need to do something about it. Oh! And you can check to see if the light really goes out!!!

On checking the IF Remote, thats looking at the digital screen and not the view finder.

Wayne, of course the refrigerator light will be on, as you need to open the door to take the picture, unless you are taking a movie, as a time delay picture will probably set the flash and you won't know if the light is from the flash, or refrigerator light.
