Download
as many other people’s config files as
possible
http://www.remotecentral.com/
http://www.prontoedit.com/
See
which
style suites you best
This
way
you’ll save a lot of time and energy not having to change everything
half way
through
Make
one
config file for yourself that is clinical but has all your remote control
codes
in, use this as a safety reference
Remember
you can open multiply Prontoedits and Copy and paste between
them
Always
include some where in each device setting the model # and manufacturer
When
you
are beginning save each new config to a different
name
Get
the
mechanics right first then make it
pretty
Keep
all
your Icons in one place
Try to
name all learnt codes, its amazing how easily you forget what you did 4
months
earlier
Try
always
to alias back to a master set of codes for each device, that was if you
change
a piece of kit you only have to change the master codes not rewrite the
schedule
Use
the
macros for one or two often used panels, that way it is easy to flip
between
two screens
Use
the
home screen for what it is , your general starting
point
Keep
an
eye on battery level when you are uploading a
lot
Always
save your work
If you
do
hit a problem upload from Pronto and save under new
name.
When
programming
use the emulator to check , you’ll save loads of
time
Have
fun
but remember other people might NEED to use it J

Pronto
Ahh yes ... probably the most important tip!
They are a little fragile but well worth it.
