I just got a Pronto TSU3000. I have it contolling all of my devices except for my VCR. I have a Mitsubishi HS-U48. Has anyone experienced similar problems or know of any reason why this combination will not work?

There's no particular reason it shouldn't work. How did you program it? Did you import an existing CCF from the Pronto files?

No, I used the learn function to teach the Pronto the Mit codes. This worked for all other devices.

You may have to try it a few times if you haven't already. The learning function is not all that reliable. Also, you could try an HS-U52 CCF that's available in the Files section.

Turns out that the remote WILL control the Mit VCR, but it has to be with about 6" of the device. The original Mit remote will work from over 20' away. The batteries in the Pronto are brand new.

Any other suggestions??

This VCR is very strange. It will not work with a Xantech repeater at all. I have tried an IR Blaster as well as a mini-emitter right over the IR Receiver. It must be using a unique frequency.

Do anyone else have a Mit HS-U48???

Your last message about using a Xantech emitter throws me a little. Does your original remote still work ok from a distance?

I programmed a TS2000 about 2 years ago that I struggled with using a Mit. HR..XX The Pronto would acknowledge it had learned ok, but it would never work .. After about 3 tries like this I was about to give up....
Then I turned off the lights, you read it correctly!
Tried learning again and this time it worked (works) great. This has been the only manufacturer I have had to resort to turning the lights off with to learn codes. I have programmed about 30 pronto's since then. Also I have run into a problem in a board room that is using fluorescent fixtures and using a Pronto remote. We also used the Pronto to control these dimmable fluorescent fixtures and as long as they were not at 100% my remote worked fine... Ramp it to 100% and the only way I had control was to stand between the lights and 2 feet in front of ir sensor.

Good luck try it and let me know.
