Hello,

I just got my TSU7000 yesterday and I am useing PPENG ver 1.0.10. When I setup a button for my TIVO to go to a specific channel here is what happens:

IRCODE
IRCODE <--- Once this is entered the first IRCODE changes to Digit 0 as well.

Is there anyway to fix this issue?

Thanks,

Martin

Both Peter DeWildt and I believe this to be a bug. Basically, you can have only one IRCode (from XML) from the same Database Codeset per button. However, multiple SpecificIRCode (from XML) entries are allowed.

As a workaround, links to individual buttons should work just as well.

Another workaround is to do the following.

Pull up the Settings tab under Device Properties. Change the Device Codeset to something other than the one you plan to use for the device.

Then, edit each button selecting the proper codeset when for the correct code. If you have done this properly, the IRCode icon will be blue and have an 'S' indicating it is a SpecificIRCode (From the XML file). You can have multiple SpecificIRCodes in an ActionList but all other IRCodes can only reference a single code, no matter how many times the code is specified in the ActionList.

Experiment with switching the Device Properties Codeset back to what it needs to be.

I found this issue early on in Beta Testing and as previously stated Peter and I both think this most likely is a bug.

Thank you for your quick response. I tried and search and couldn't find any information on this. I will give that a try.

Martin,

You won't find anything on this subject. I pretty much follow the forum on a daily basis. I believe that you are the first one to point out this issue.

The workaround posted above is the only way to get around this issue aside from providing links to secondary keypad buttons.

Most people would set up their PCFs to have a page with all the IR Codes on individual buttons. Then in their User Interface pages, use links to these buttons. If you do that then you don't see the problem. Doing it this way makes it easier if you change equipment at a later time. There is only one place to specify the new codes.
