Testing IR Functions
It is recommended that all IR functions are tested before being written into program scripts:
1. In the AMX IR Libraries dialog, select the function to test from the Function drop-down menu (FIG. 57).
2. Connect an IR Transmitter to the ControlPad’s IR Port, and place the IR Emitter directly in front of the
device’s IR receiver.
3. Click the TEST button, and verify that the device responded appropriately.
If the device does not respond correctly, click the Edit Data button (in the Edit Options window) to access the
IR Data for the selected function, to view and edit (FIG. 58):
The main reason that a device will not respond is that the transmit frequency needs adjustment.
Try increasing or decreasing the frequency to the next value by clicking on the Fine Tune arrow
buttons. Also, try adjusting the Pulses/Bit value. Click on TEST to re-test the function (FIG. 59).
