Help getting started

Postby MurrayW » Sun May 18, 2003 7:43 pm

I just got around to installing my 56mHz USB UIRT and want to start out simple. What I'm looking to do at first is use it and my HTPC as a learning universal remote (I'll do more later). I want to be able to press the power button on my RCA DTC100 remote to turn on the DTC100 stb, my Mitsubishi monitor and my Onkyo receiver.

I've installed the latest driver, firmware and girder plug ins and have an IR emitter that is stuck to the IR window of my receiver and connected to the UIRT.

I "learned" my power button IR code from my Onkyo remote. What do I need to do next to transmit this code through the IR emitter when I press the power button again. It doesn't appear as if it is transmitting the signal through the emitter (the emitter light does not flash -- but the UIRT lights up when it senses the remote control signal).

I'm sure that I am missing something that is very basic and if someone could help me out with a few step-by-step instructions I would really appreciate it.

thanks,

Murray
