Abstract

An exemplary infrared control system includes an infrared control unit and a computer. The infrared control unit is capable of transmitting an infrared signal. The computer includes an infrared response unit, and the infrared response unit includes an infrared receiving circuit and a control circuit electrically connected to the infrared receiving circuit. The infrared receiving circuit is capable of receiving the infrared signal from the infrared control unit. Accordingly the control circuit is capable of processing the infrared signal from the infrared receiving circuit to generate a corresponding command signal to control the computer to power on/off or reset.
