Importing IR HEX File Codes

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

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".

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).
