PC-Link Software

The Windows® 95/98 PC-LINK software provided with the RR-1090 remote can be used to work with complete configuration files for the RR-1090 remote. These configuration files contain a complete set of options, command sets, macros, and custom labels to fully customize a RR-1090 remote. The configu- ration files can be saved to or opened from the hard disk. They can also be uploaded from or downloaded to the RR-1090 using the supplied serial cable. This provides a convenient way to transfer the desired programming to a number of RR-1090 remotes.

In addition, many of the configuration options for the RR-1090 can be modified in the PC-LINK soft- ware, a procedure that may be more convenient than using the RR-1090’s own setup menus.

Installing PC-LINK Software

To install and run the PC-LINK software on a Win- dows® 95/98 computer:

1.Insert DISK 1 in your disk drive.

2.Run the program SETUP.EXE, either by double- clicking the filename in Windows® Explorer or by clicking RUN from the START button menu and typing A:SETUP.EXE.

3.Follow the steps in the setup program, accept- ing the default directory for the installation of the program (C:\PROGRAMS\HT2000) or speci- fying a new location using the BROWSE button.

4.You will be prompted to insert DISK 2 during the installation. When the files are installed, you will be prompted to restart your computer to com- plete the installation.

5.Run the PC-LINK software either by double-clicking the filename HT2000.EXE in Windows® Explorer or by clicking RUN from the START button menu and typing C:\PROGRAMS\HT2000.EXE.

Loading and Saving Configuration Files

To use the PC-LINK software, you open a configura- tion file which appears in the main PC-Link screen as shown in the illustration at the front of the manual. These configuration files can be stored on your com- puter disk with the file extension “*.HTR”.

2.Use the dialog box to find the DEFAULT.HTR configuration file (or the file of your choice).
