Well, I have been trying for over a week to get the RP-6 working with my T3. However, I have been able to get my T3 and T2+ to work with the RP-1 with no problems. The only thing I can think of is that either my RP-6 is dead, or I need to run it with the antenna. Given that I am within 20 feet of range, I can't believe it to be true, but I thought I would ask anyways.
Thanks,

Thanks, and have a great day!

Well, you don't have to use the antenna (RM-433) but if you don't then you have to run it IR using a dinky link or the like. The Dinky link option (while I've never used it) seems like it would work pretty good. Remote just fires one code at the IR receiver, and the RP6 does the rest (macros).

In short...Yes. If you want a RP6 to work without IR..RF you will need the RM433 antenna
Or as Andy Stated, use an IR receiver for control, but thats not RF

There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far. |

Guess that is why I have been struggling with the unit all week :)
Wish they would of told me that when I ordered as I am still new to RTI products.
Anyways, will get that ordered right away.
Thanks for everyone's help.
