RE: IR to Serial on a PC



Yes,  but....

Homevision's idea of "standard codes" are NOT RC5/6.

They're something proprietary that an early major Homevision customer wanted :-(

Personally, I've not come close to hitting the 255 limit mind :-)

Regards,

Mark

Isn't that only with learned codes? I thought that it can deal with any
number of 'standard' codes ???

This is what FIRM does. Also watch out for the IR limit in HomeVision,
it can only store 255 codes, so if you different equipment and codes in
every room you could soon run out.
