NTL
Hi all, I'm new to the group.
Never posted to a
group before, so if I do anything wrong - please let
me
know..
Don't
know if anyone is still interested in the Pace/NTL DITV1000
remote
control
saga, but the Irda on the Fuji Pen Pads is great for controlling
it.
Works
a treat (got all the remote control functions running and didn't get
a
missed selection during testing upto about 2m). Just a shame the IR is
on
the bottom edge of the tablet, rather than the top! Also, the
size/weight of
the Fuji doesnt really make it very useful as an IR
device...
Should get my HA pc fitted with an Irda port this week.If
this works, the
NTL box will get relegated to the loft with it. Will
start
with just channel
changing thru an X10 keyfob, then upgrade to Pronto
(is
this the best
controller?) with the ha doing the conversions, or
something
like that
anyway.
If anyone's interested I can post a text file
of
the function strings, you
can try them by 'paste to host' function in
Hyperteminal.
But need to expose the Fuji IR port as COM2 in CMOS, and
use
115200,8,n,1
settings.
