2.1 Adding a New Component to the IR Library (Fig. 12)

New component IR files are easily added by clicking on the Add New button. This brings up a new window titled Add New Component. In this window you must first enter the manufacturer name and model. The Type drop-down menu contains a large list of components. Each is a template of common functions for that type of equipment. Clicking on the type that matches the component will add the type name in that field. If desired, you can add a type name that is not in the drop-down menu.

Clicking on OK will automatically add the selected component and associated functions to the IR Library.

Using the IR Learning Station Interface (Fig. 13)

To record new IR codes, you will need the IR Learning Station Interface. The IR Learning Station Interface is a powerful tool for setting up new IR Libraries for use with the Configurator Software, and is part of the IR Learning Station Package. Capturing function codes and adding them to the component IR Library is an easy process.

The Interface box is connected to your computer using one of the RS232 connection cables provided with the IR Learning Station package. Note that in many cases, personal notebook computers do not have a Db9 serial cable. In this case an RS232 to USB dongle cable will be necessary.

The back panel of the Interface box has two IR outputs for testing purposes. You can use the included IR emitter and attach it to the IR window on the face of the source component, or to the built-in IR blaster, which, when aimed at the source equipment, will fire the IR command.

2.2 Recording IR codes (Fig. 14)

When a new component is added to the IR Library, it is necessary to record the IR codes associated with each function. To do this, connect the Learning Station Interface as described above. Double-click on the desired component from the IR Library page. This will open the IR Library Editor. This window lists the complete set of functions for that type of device.

To initiate the IR recording process, you can either double- click on a function to be recorded or highlight the function and click on the Record button. This will open the IR Library Record window. The window will indicate that the Configurator is “Waiting for IR Communications.” To record a new code, simply point the component's remote control at the IR receiver on the NuVo IR Learning Station Interface. The first time you enter a code, the Configurator determines if it is a “toggling function,” which means that the remote actually sends two commands back-to-back. This requires that the function button be pressed four times in succession.
