hi,

maybe this tool will help (you may find it somewhere outside
Germany):

[Link: reichelt.de]

you can convert a RF signal from your device (if it does
not use IR) into an IF signal, which you learn then with
the Pronto. Afterwards you switch the learned equipment
to RF over and you can use the appropriate equipment without
the "pyramids".

This worked for me for an exotic device - the experts
should correct me if i understood the question in a wrong
way.

hope this helps

cheers
