Anyone been using the built in channel macros for the Sony SAT-T60? Mine have been pretty flaky. Is there some massaging involved here? Sometimes 1 or 2 digits sent only.

Thanks.

Sometimes you'll need to add a delay between digits -- especially between identical digits -- or try increasing/decreasing the number of repeats.

Yep. Tried it. I set groups of channels up and delayed some no delay on others. Have altered the number of repeats on some, tried recapturing the code for others. Still goofy.

alot of the trouble is the first bit on sony pieces. try putting a false command first (not a delay) followed by the actual command sequence. the output of the t2 is so fast that sometimes you have to trick it with sony stuff, especially their sat rec.

Gary,

That sounds like a good ploy, I'm always in favor of tricking the devices.

I'm not ruling out that there may be something goofy going on with the Sony boxes, but it seems that my problem came from the IR learning in the RTI.

I got it to work pretty reliably this weekend buy recapturing the codes and trimming all of the repeats to six. Funny that the codes that I had from downloaded files would not as well when the same technique was applied...

I'm not going to worry about it any more...it works!

Thanks!

Interesting - I have most repeats at zero or one, with maybe a couple of twos.

Cheers,
