Importing IR HEX File Codes

Alternatively, IR Libraries can be created by importing IR HEX file codes.

1.

In the Edit Options window of the AMX Library Files dialog, click Import Hex File to access the Hex
data import and conversion options (FIG. 53).

2.

Enter the name of the function that you want to import, in the Enter Function text field.

AMX does not provide HEX codes, and therefore, cannot give any assurance that
data provided by others is accurate or functional. There are a number of web sites
that make IR HEX codes freely available. One such site is Remote Central, where
you can search for your specific device and look for downloads with "text files with
HEX codes".
