I am working on a remote that I would like to use press and hold (ie, press does one operation, press and hold, for a certain amount of time - does another operation). Can this be done, and if so, how? I must have missed this somewhere.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Button Test feature. Must be in a macro.

yes this can be done, it is in the Macro Editor window under the remote, not the processor. You would select "Button Test":

Also, the button must be in Standalone Mode.

Thank you guys very much!

being in standalone mode, you can still trigger a system macro off an rp6....correct?

Thanks

Yes, thats how I do all my macros so I can make use of the page flips for please wait screen.

If you're using Button Test for a single command, you'll need to create a System Macro for that command, otherwise it is IR emitted from the remote, not the processor.

This got me a couple times when I first started programming RTI. I used Button Test for the Menu button on a T2+ controlling a cable DVR with a RP6: press for Info, press/hold for Menu. It's a great feature.
