I'm trying to mod this script to send the IR command to all LEDs.

I've been using it with "external" which has worked for all but one of my devices which for some reason only will work by sending from
iRed using "All LEDs"

The syntax for all is like here:

Code: Select all

perform action (Code "next" of Device "Sony/Tuner") using module "Office" using led "all"

I assume that you have already tried out this syntax?

I am trying to use iRed2 to control my mitsubishi TV using RS-232 with the GC-100-12. I was not having any luck with iRed2 so I downloaded iTest and it works good, however I'm sending this style of command \xDF\x80p\xF8\x02\x00\x006. How do I send this type of command with iRed?

Thanks
Ed

Hi Ted,

I was not aware that non ASCII-Codes are also used in RS232, so currently there is no way to enter these beasts into the respective field. I'll put this onto the wishlist.

it's possible to send some codes to the external LEDs, and some to the internal
LEDs?

I don't understand. You are already using "external" and "internal" in your AppleScripts. Of course, you have to specify this for every code you want to transmit.
You can also target specific LEDs like here:

Code: Select all

   perform action (Code "next" of Device "Sony/Tuner") using module "Office" using led 2


Cheers, Robert

At one point forum user "Perry The Cynic" mentioned that he was working on a plugin for the Global Cache devices, but I don't know the status.

IR devices like the GC/IRtrans are high on our list of priorities for plugins - so I expect that after 5.0 ships and we start prioritizing next steps we'll evaluate what is currently available from 3rd parties and see if there are some holes we need to fill. Nothing to announce yet but just to let you know what the priority is.

The discussion of using Python to control the Global Cache devices was split off to a new thread.
