Creating and Editing Timers

With the Timer Tool you can define actions to be carried out at predefined times. For instance, you can switch on the lights or program your VCR to record your favorite daily TV-show.

Note When a timer is executed, you will hear a beep and a Timer message appears on screen.

If Pronto NG is performing another task (sending out IR codes, testing a macro, ...) when a timer is due to be executed, Pronto NG first continues performing the current task.
