RE: X-10 Rf IR remote.

["Jon Whiten" <jon@xxxxxxx>]

If it is the one that works with a powermid extender than I have one.

I have the digibox upstairs and rely totally on it for Sky and the VCR.  I
had to teach it loads of buttons from the sky remote but soon ran out of
memory.  So yes it works, but with limitations.  The only real problem I
have is that is very soon stopped sending out any IR.  Seeing as I mainly
use it with the RF function I have lived with it but would like to try with
the new TV/DVD and Surround system.

Incidentally I got mine from Lets Automate last year.

Regards,

Jon

OKay, I'm having a "too good to be true" moment here:

The 10148 remote on letsautomate.com, seems like a dream come true, at
least
until the WAF rating is high enough on the system to convince her to spring
for a Pronto.......

Some questions:

Does this guy, really, switch both X-10, via a TM12, >and< Seven IR
devices
on it's own?

Has anyone tried using it to control a sky digibox?

Does it learn codes by example, rather than by keying in numbers? I have a
rather obscure IR controlled video switcher which has four buttons (one for
each source) and that's it!

I might just order one anyways, given that it's £30 rather than £300!!!

Ian.
