Out of interest is there an editor for TSU6000 and TSU7000 that will run on windows 7 ?
I was thinking on getting one but only have Mac 10.10 or windows 7 and can see no point if i cannot edit

32 Bit Windows 7 should pose no issues for the TSU7000 editor (ProntoProEdit NG). However, 64 bit is a different story as the 7000 uses a custom driver.

Please note that the editor for the TSU6000 is ProntoEdit 4.2.x (Also addressed by the Classic Pronto Forum - this is the NG Forum) and I am not sure if anyone is running this on Win7 32bit. However, I don't believe that there is anything on Win7-32 that should prevent it from working.

With regard to purchasing a remote. Both the 6000 and 7000 have been out of production (discontinued) for a long time. If you are leaning towards one of these, pick the 7000/7500 as you will not be disappointed.

Thank you i am getting two (cheap) one is the
TSU6000
the other
RU980

both from the same person and both not used in years and he as no idea of what editors were used. I am told the TSU6000 is in better condition and is the better of the two so was looking to edit both if possible. I tried the 4.2 but that looks like the old black and white version. As for forum i am new so sorry i am in the wrong one.

Just been told the RU980 may not be working ?
but the only way to check is to connect

Download, install, and try getting it running.

Only tried the (7000) 980 so far and it as two dead hard keys but apart from that up and running have got my own pages setup and happy. Years ago i bought a 940 and thought it was great but work took me away for 30 years so it was sold. Putting the editor back on and using bootcamp running windows 7 i had no problems and once in the editor it all came back to me. Will try the 6000 later this week when i have time i hope running two edit programs will not interfere with each other. Do keep thinking of saving and investing in a Philips Pronto TSU9600 but they do look a bit big to handle but the larger screen can handle a lot of control.

You can install both editors side by side and they do not interfere.

Thank you Lyndel i have installed the pro 4 editor but cannot play with the 6000 yet as it as a different lead and the person who as passed them onto me will look for it and pass it on when found. The 6000 is in better shape but the screen on the 7000 is way ahead of the game. The 7000 is all now setup with a background jpg and everything had to relearn one button last night but the was my xbox the remote sends multi signals so you have to be patient and sharp to capture it. Using this last night makes you wonder why they ever stopped making them as they are so easy to use and setup.
Still thinking on a nice 9600 as a xmas treat and that being more modern the editor should be Ok on windows 7.

See the Classic Pronto FAQ for a pinout on the 6000 cable.

This cable is the same as a Toshiba Digital Camera Cable from back in the mid 2000's.
