I just got my TSU 7000, and am trying to set it up. It was my understanding that you could change the whole device to use RF (to the RF Extender) by setting the value on the "System" properties screen in ProntoProEditNG. (As opposed to setting each device to RF individually.) The help systems says you can, and I thought I saw it there earlier -- but the RF tab seems to have disappeared! The System Properties screen only has "General" and "Hard Buttons" tabs.

Is there something that needs to be done (or undone) to re-enable the RF tab? I'm so confused..... :-(

RF or IR are selected on a device by device basis.

Ok, Not to argue -- and it appears you are right -- but that's not what the help file says...

"In the System Properties, you can decide to operate all your devices with RF codes. In the Device Properties, you can decide for each device separately to operate it with RF codes.
In the RF tab of the Properties window, you can switch between IR codes and RF codes. When you switch to RF codes, you have to set the RF frequency and the ID of your RF Extender."

Perhaps they originally intended this, but decided it would cause too many headaches.

if you link all your buttons back to an IR page (where all your codes are kept) all you have to do is select just that IR page to run RF and then the buttons that are linked to those pages will run in RF. if you want to send both then you have to separate your codes into 2 different devices 1: device for RF buttons and 2: device for IR codes.

i hope this makes sense, but it does work

And of course, when you are planning on using RF, then you should keep your IR code pages in individual locations, such as with the Device itself. This way you can elect, per Device, which Devices you want to work by RF and which Devices you want to control by IR. Peter Dewildt taught me this...
