You can just leave the cable box on all of the time (draws
the same amount of power whether on or off), so the MRF-350
should really work fine there.
I have great success with Scientific Atlanta boxes discrete power by doing the following:
- Press Settings Twice
- Scroll down to Power
- Select "Power and Numeric"
(This will allow you to power on the cable box if its off by pressing any number
on the keypad)
- Set your on Macro to be 0,0,OK
- Set your off Macro to be 0,0,delay,ok,power
Works PERFECT. Make sure you use zeros as channels because if the box is on it will ignore the invalid 00 channel and not mess up the program your watching.
So I guess ALL of your equipment is easily controlled.
