Sorry for the goofy title, I wasn't sure how to word it.
Here is what I am asking. I just got my TSU7000 and I am have a blast programming it (yes, I actually like programming it :) ).
My TV has 7 inputs, and instead of toggling through all 7 inputs, I want to create direct buttons that will take you directly to the input you choose (My PC is connected to input 7, having an input labeled "PC Input" would be nice).
There are no individual buttons on the remote to get to each input, only a TV/Video button.
How can I do this? I know my Harmony 520 did this, but the input commands were already a part of the Harmony database.
Thanks in advance for the help.

An IR Code that puts a device into a particular state regardless of the current state is known as a Discrete Code. Examples - Power On regardless of whether power is currently on or off, Input 3 regardless of current input.

Often the supplied remote does not have these codes. However, the manufacturer has put them into the TV or whatever, and you just need to find the codes. Often, the discrete code simply doesn't exist.

If your Harmony has the codes, use your Pronto to learn them from the Harmony remote.

Otherwise, someone else may have already found the codes, and put a PCF with the codes into the Files Section here.

Slick,

Start here for discrete codes that are already known.

Sorry for being a noob :)
The TV is a Sony KDL-V32XBR1. I luckily still have my Harmony 520, so I got the codes off of it.
Thanks for the help, I never would have thought about using the 520 to program the TSU7000 :)

Thanks again, hopefully I have this thing program today, woohoo.

considering those codes probably came from here :)

the harmony web site used to have a way to enter Pronto codes, most discrete there got entered that way
