Well, the sequence I was thinking of at the time was:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[SETUP**] 994 [device1] [key1] [device2] [key2]

- > copies the function of [KEY1] from one device (device1 - source
device) to [KEY2] of another device (device2- target device). Hit
"MAGIC" before KEY2 in the sequence if you wish to put the
function to a shifted key.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


But I tested it and alas, it will not copy EFC keys, like its
single-device-copy alternative - it will only move original keys
between devices. I guess I was thinking of another sequence to
do the EFC copy. Probably this one:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[SETUP**] 994 [device1] [SETUP] ### [device2] [key1]

--> assigns [device1] EFC code ### to [device2] [key1]
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's function is to allow you to transfer an EFC-coded key from one
device into the key layout of another device, but you have to manually
enter the advanced code.

You mean you're putting your wife, your kids and your babysitter
*before* your Cinema 7?? [Talk about your screwed up priorities.....]
Anyhooo, I tried it out for you using an EFC code for the shifted
fucntion. The answer is that the shifted EFC function does not copy.
It appears to work only under the same laws that govern a non-shifted
key copy.
