USB-UIRT Forum

Using the HS plugin, should I be able to have HomeSeer recognize/react to IR received through the USBUIRT? Any special setup?

Pat

that's the way i'm using it right now. i'm fairly new to all the ir stuff but so far i've been able to use IR or anything else as a trigger to an event.

Nightwalker,
Thanks for your responses, I'm sure there is hope for me yet. I have tried the IR match trigger in Homeseer, aiming a remote at the usbuirt and I get no response. It seems like your saying the same thing, just wanted to be sure it was the same procedure.

I'm not sure how you're setup but what i did was to use an old remote from a TV i don't have anymore. I learned a couple of the buttons from that into HS, those are what i use as a trigger. You need to make sure those IR buttons are setup as a device in HS. I setup an event using one of those buttons as the trigger in that event. i learned that same command to a learning remote so now when i press the command on that remote, HS sees it, matches it to an event and runs that event which turns on my audio/video equipment. so far it's been very high in the WAF area. she can finally operate the audio/video equipment without me being there.

I hope this has been helpful, there are a lot out there that know so much more than me, most to be honest, but i did get this to work.
Good luck with yours.
