The blaster (also called an IR bug, sometimes called an IR bud) will light up red when it is transmitting, this is a feature of the MCE IR bugs so that you can see when it's doing something.


The IR Bugs have a small adhesive patch on the back for attaching them to the device you want to control, you need to make sure that this area is in direct contact with the device.  They only work over a very short distance, unlike a remote control.


If the bug is flashing red then it's transmitting.  If your device doesn't respond then something has gone wrong.  You can try re-learning the IR command, or trying a different blaster speed setting.


good luck,
