Hook up a ir emitter to the blaster port and stick the
emitter end onto a MS210 (IR sensor) then connect the
ir sensor leads to the XP8 with the ground, positive and
data wires. I assume these wires would go into the same
molex connector on the XP8 as the RM433.
Then could I convert the Macros on the XP8 to IR trigger
codes, and dump the appropriate ir trigger code hex into
a RTI remote sending standalone ir codes out then learn
them to the UPS?
This may in fact work and I may have missed something.
I need to go back and look over things more carefully
and do some proper testing. I just need more hours in
a day.
It does work. We do it with an RP6 though. We use the Panamax M1500UPS with a Niles MF1 that flashes a MS200, (Now MS210). The MS200 is connected to the RP6 via ground, power and signal. Build a projector power down macro. Then I generate an IR trigger code associated with the system macro. Place the trigger code on a remote and have the Panamax capture the code.
