Hello everyone!
I have a question that I can't seem to resolve... Basically, I want to power OFF/ON my Media center PC under my TV (put it to sleep/wake it up) using my NEVOS70. The problem is there no discrete ON/OFF codes for Media Center remotes only toggle. So, everytime I run a set of commands or go to a different NEVO page it triggers power command which tuns PC on and off. I decided to go with NC50 extender and Nevo voltage sensor. The voltage sensor has 3.5mm male jack which needs to be plugged in into a 3.5mm jack on the device (in this case PC) but the problem is none of the audio/mic jacks output enough voltage (5V-24V) for NC50 to trigger sensing. I found this adapter [Link: dealextreme.com] that plugs in into USB port and outputs 5V to 3.5mm male hack which can be plugged in into a voltage sensor. Do you guys think it will do the job? Anyone tried it?
Thanks in advance!

Looks like it should do the trick.

Korey, your reply is much appreciated! If it will do the trick, that would be a perfect solution for HTPC users.
