SP Controls PixiePlus - Manual (Page 16)

V. Program PixiePlus cont’d
Example: You wish to configure the PixiePlus to send a power command to a pro-
jector and a separate power command to an amplifier with single press of the Pix-
iePlus POWER ON button.
To do so, program the PixiePlus POWER ON button with two commands, Power On
from the projector remote, and Power On from the amplifier remote. Then configure
the PixiePlus POWER ON button to Macro mode.
12. To Erase All Buttons: Set the device to Learning Mode. Press and hold any
two buttons to erase the PixiePlus. The whole keypad will blink, first slowly, then
quickly. Then all buttons will go dark and the PixiePlus will beep four times, indicat-
ing that it has been erased. Once a device has been erased there is no way to un-
erase it.
13. To Exit Learning Mode: Gently remove the paper clip to exit Learning Mode.
Be sure not to hold any buttons while removing the paper clip, or the unit will be set
to cloning mode.
14. Final Test of Learned Codes: Verify that the IR emitter bud has been placed
directly over the IR detector on the device the PixiePlus controls. Press the Pix-
iePlus button that you wish to test. A red LED labeled “IR Activity” will blink when
the code is being sent, but the emitter bud does not illuminate.
15. Troubleshooting: If you cannot control the device, be sure that the emitter bud
is positioned correctly. If some buttons work but others do not, try re-programming
the buttons that do not work. Make sure that you press the button on the remote for
at least one second during learning.
Fluorescent lights can interfere with IR signals. Check if the projector is close to a
fluorescent light source. If so, try turning off the lights. If this restores control, cover
the IR emitter bud and display device IR receiver window with an IR-opaque shield,
such as gaffer's tape.
See Section X. Troubleshooting beginning on page 21 for more tips.
VI. Configuring Special Features
1. Configuring the Inactivity Shutdown Timer
The Inactivity Shutdown Timer will automatically shut the display device down if it is
not used for a configurable length of time.
Example: The PixiePlus Inactivity Shutdown Timer is set to three hours. If no button
is pressed on the PixiePlus for three hours, the PixiePlus will begin to beep and
flash in warning 120 seconds before three hours has elapsed. If no button is
pressed, at three hours the PixiePlus will send all codes programmed to the
POWER OFF button.
