In the example above we begin by first sending a command to switch the Video Distribution to the
correct input (Satellite)
The next thing we do is switch the input on the TV to satellite. This will commentate a TV that is
already in the On position.
Then we power on the components in the selected room (example: TV) incase they are not already
on. Toggling can be an issue, to work around this, use discreet IR commands to set up two separate
buttons for on and off. Not all TVs have discreet IR commands, but many do. If the TV is already
turned on sending a discreet command won’t affect the status of the power button. If the TV were in
the off position this command would turn it on. If you are using RS232 most all TVs have discreet on
and off commands. You will find these under the Remote Tab.
In the event that your TV was not originally on, we want to resend the command to change the input
of your TV. If it was off it would not have received the first command we sent. Before this command
is sent set a timer that corresponds with the amount of time your TV takes to fully power on. This
typically is about 6-9 seconds. Note; some devices will turn on when you send the first input
commands. Check to see if your device turns on with the input command.
Save the Mood when you are finished, using the button at the bottom of the screen.
