I have a Pronto 940 remote. I am trying to programme it to use with Homeseer and it’s media player to use this as a pc based soundserver. I have set up the buttons on Pronto for the various playlists…e.g Joni Mitchell, Party, Dance, etc.

Homeseer is programmed to play each individual playlist on the touch of one button on Pronto e.g Pressing Joni Mitchell button sends out house code M, then unit code 5, then X10 on to initiate the Joni Mitchell play list.

I have downloaded an all house code CCF from here and that works fine through my all house code IR to X10 receiver.

I cannot get the programmed music selection buttons to issue the 3 necessary X10 commands…nothing happens at all when I press these buttons.

I know I am missing something very simple here but it’s driving me nuts !!


My question is this

How do I program the Pronto so that each music selection button press issues 3 separate X10 commands ie. House code M, unit code 5, then X10 on command. I assume this is what I need to do.

Any help anyone ?

Any chance of me e-mailing my ccf to someone and getting some help programming the music selection buttons to work ?

Many thanks

Graham

Graham,

You should've posted this in the Pronto forum, but here goes.

You need to create a panel (preferably hidden) that contains the buttons with X10 codes in them.

When you make your Joni Mitchell button, alias these buttons to the correct codes. Don't forget to include delays between each code because X10 is slow.

Hope this helps.
