SoftwareRemote: How to create?

Post by Osler »

Can someone please enlighten me on how to do this. I have created a theme for a Dell Axim X31 using Meedio Blue and saved it (simple with one panel and 3 buttons). I then created a new software remote, named it, and referenced the theme I created. Is there another step? Nothing is showing up in my "client" folder other than the sample remote.

You have to manually copy the correct SWRemote EXE from within the 'Clients' directory on the server over to the Axim. When you run it for the first time, just enter the name of the SWRemote configured on the server (exact case) and the IP address of the server when it starts and you should be done.

Yes, I did disable the example and enabled the new one.

I only have one file showing up in each Client subfolder - SWRemote - which corresponds to the example remote provided in the intial download. No other files are located in the client folders save the example SWRemote.

Got it. Forgot to put the name of the SWRemote in the connection dialog box. Thanks all.
