EDITING IR COMMANDS IN THE USER IR LIBRARY
The commands in the USER IR library will almost always
work without editing. However, to get some commands
to work you may need to rename a particular function or
change its IR carrier frequency, the number of times it is
repeated or its sustain characteristic. You can do this in
the IR Library Manager window.
To edit an IR command for a particular remote:
1. Click on that remote in the left-hand window of the
IR LIBRARY MANAGER screen.
2. Click on the EDIT tab. The remote’s functions will
appear in the main part of the screen (see
Figure 51 ).
You can change the remote function’s name (not its IR code), its IR frequency, the number of times it is repeated each time a
button is pressed and whether it is to be repeated while the button is held-down (commands in macros are not repeated). Click
on the parameter you want to change to highlight it and type-in the new value (for REPEAT, check or un-check the box).
NOTE: Typically there should be no reason to change any of these parameters. A component may not
respond to an IR code if you alter any of these parameters to incorrect values.
ADDING IR CODES TO THE USER IR LIBRARY WITH THE OPTILINQ®IR LEARNER
On occasion, there may be a particular component or command that is not in the USER IR library. You can add IR
commands to the USER IR Library by learning the command using the Sonance OptiLinQ®IR Learner (part #92071,
available separately).
1. Open Sonance Control Manager and open the LIBRARY menu. Select IR LIBRARY MANAGER. The IR LIBRARY MANAGER window
(
Figure 49 , opposite) will open.
2. Open the USER.CMLcommand library. If the USER.CMLlibrary does not appear in the window you will have to navigate to it:
a) Open the FILE menu and select OPEN. A browser window will appear.
b) Navigate to the SONANCE CONTROL MANAGER program folder. (The default location for the IR
library folder is: C: > Program Files > Sonance > Sonance Control Manager > Command
Libraries.) Double-click the folder to open it.
c) Double-click the COMMAND LIBRARIES folder. The MASTER.CMLand USER.CMLlibraries will
appear in the window. Select USER.CMLand click OPEN. The USER.CMLlibrary will now
appear in the IR LIBRARY MANAGER window.
3. If you’re adding codes to a remote that’s already in the USER.CMLlibrary, select it in the left-
hand window. If the remote isn’t in the USER.CMLlibrary, create a new remote:
a) Open the REMOTE menu and select NEW. The CREATE NEW REMOTE screen (
Figure 52 ) will appear.
b) Use the drop-down boxes to enter the remote’s manufacturer, type and model. If the
manufacturer, type or model you need don’t appear in the drop-down menus you can type them in.
