I need some Help..

["Ian Lowe" <ian@xxxxxxx>]

I tried (and failed miserably) at building a UIRT (
http://people.a2000.nl/rwvgesse/FixFrame.htm?Uirt.htm
) few months back.

Now, with Quentin's post about the Lego Transciever, I had a look into
Girder, which looks like one awesome little bit of kit. I then found that
the Lego kit would need a custom driver DLL written in C, which ends the
story for me..  The thing is, these guys have taken the UIRT, and turned it
into something pretty smart. (

for details)

As well as being able to record any *raw* IR stream and play it back at
will, it also has the capability to store up to four IR codes in PIC, and
react to these even if the PC is off. It's able to power the PC on when it
receives a specific IR Code..

The problem, and where I need help, is that I simply cannot find out what
is
wrong with my build. It's driving me nuts, I have checked, double checked,
triple checked, "Jenni" checked all the connections, and still
nothing!

The HA potential for this guys is (IMO) pretty amazing. It would be the
*core* of my HA setup, if I could just get it going...

Any Guru's interested?

Ian.
