TEACHING RC68 TRIGGER COMMANDS TO A UNIVERSAL REMOTE
The Macro Sequences created in the previous section must be triggered by RC68 Commands when issued
from a Universal Remote, another keypad or an IR Receiver connected to the SPLCD’s IR IN Bus (
Figure 3
–
Item 19)
. This requires the use of a
RC68X Handheld Programmer
(sold separately)
or Universal Dragon
Software (Xantech programmable devices only).
NOTE:
The programming in the following sections requires use of Xantech RC68 Commands to trigger Macro
Sequences from the SPLCD. Non-Xantech branded remotes, keypads and other controllers will need to be
programmed with RC68 Commands that are generated by either a RC68+ or RC68X. The older RC68 will work,
but it does not provide the complete code set available for creating triggered macros. For simplicity, these
codes will be generically referred to as RC68 commands in the following sections.
1.
On the rear of the
RC68 Hand-Held Programmer
, set the
Code Group Dials
to
C9
. (No Overlay needed)
2.
Set the
Universal Learning Remote
to be used to
learn mode
per the manufacturer’s instructions.
3.
Select the
button
on the
Universal Remote
that is to issue the
RC68 Trigger Command
and locate the
properly numbered
RC68 Button
on the
RC68 Hand Held Programmer
(i.e. Button 80).
4.
Teach the
RC68 Command
to the
Universal Remote
per the remote’s instructions.
5.
Repeat
Steps 2-4
for all
RC68 Trigger Commands
to be used.
PROGRAMMING THE URC-2B/P FOR USE WITH SPLCD RC68 TRIGGERED SEQUENCES
Programming a Xantech Model URC-2B/P (Black or Platinum) Universal Remote to trigger the programmed
RC68 sequences can be done in two different ways: either identically to the procedure above (teaching directly
with the RC68 Hand Held Programmer) or by using Universal Dragon Software. To program the URC-2 for
operation with the SPLCD using Universal Dragon, please do the following:
1.
Either
open
an existing or create a
new URC-2B/P Project
.
2.
With the
URC-2 Base Unit
open, click the
RC68 Tab
in the
Palette
Editor
.
3.
Click the
Options Tab
on the
RC68 Command Palette
.
4.
Under
Xantech Model
select
SPLCD
from the pull-down. If
SPLCD
is
not found in the pull-down, select
MAC1
as shown in
Figure 43
.
5.
Change the
Code Group
to
C9
.
6.
Click the
RC68 Remote Tab.
7.
Click the
button
on the
virtual URC-2
to be used to trigger the
Macro
Sequence
created on the
SPLCD
. (i.e. CD Button as shown in
Figure
44.
)
8.
Click the
RC68 Trigger Command Button
in the
RC68 Command
Palette
that corresponds to the
Macro Sequence
programmed on the
SPLCD.
(i.e. button 80)
9.
Confirm the proper
RC68 Command
is shown in the
Macro Command
List
.
10.
Repeat
Steps 7-9
for all
RC68 Triggered Sequences
programmed on the
SPLCD
that are to be triggered from the
URC2.
