Simple Question - Assigning IR Codes

Post by k_flerlage »

Hello,



I have created remotes in the Remote Control Library and have "learned" some IR codes into the system. Now I want to create a button in the theme to execute an IR code. For Example, I want to create a button that says "Play" and when pressed with execute the play command on the VCR.



I went to Devices and went to Add Property (help files seems to say that this is where to go to assign IR codes.) But when I get in there, there is not mention of IR. I'm lost.



Thanks,

Kevin,



You will need to first create an IR Device definition and assign it the Properties you want for the Device. Then create the Device and assign the IR Properties.



The whole process is a bit hard to describe in a post. The online help goes into more detail on this. Select Help/Plugin Help... from the main menu. Then select the IR Receiver Device. Hopefully this should get you most of the way there.
