Please could some help to program the keys properly.
Thanks Alot
Mark.

Try increasing the delay in the alias function to 0.3 seconds between digits.

ie, replicate the speed that you can manually press the buttons.

Warren,

Question, for say Sky1,

Are you trying to get the pronto to learn 106 by pressing 1 then 0 then 6?

If so, then this will not work.

Create a blank page in your Sky device, and create a button for each key on the Sky remote (no need for icons, just name each button) and learn a single key to each of these buttons.

Then simple on your main panels, creat a button, add your logo, and then alias the channel number from the first panel which has all the Sky IR codes.

If the channel is 112, then insert a delay of 0.1s between the 1's. You do not need to add a delay between different numbers, only if two numbers are repeated.

If you have anymore problems, drop me a line. Also hunt for my .ccf (search for Guy Tanner) as this will also give you a good idea on what should be done.

Cheers,

Guy

Guy, depending on the device you are controlling, you may need a delay even between different digits. Scott suggested increasing the delay as the original that he downloaded may not have had enough (or even no) delay.

Peter,

While using just the 0.1s delay between repeat numbers, I've not had a problem with either the Panasonic, Pace, Sony or Grundig Sky Digiboxes.

I may just be lucky ;).

Seriously, it's always a case of suck it and see. For my On-Digital Nokia box, I have had to use delays in the region of 3-4 seconds becuase the thing is SO slow.

Where as the Sony DAB radio has no need for any delays.

I also find holding the press for the duration of the macro helps in place of longer delays.
