Hi Dean,

Just want to clraify what you mean by 8 channel of IR as I don't have any
NEO's in the house and want to be sure I remember correctly.

Each channel of IR is actually representing a key on the keypad i.e. If i
program Key 1 to be a Dimmer Up with Group address Kitchen then the IR code
associated to Key press 1 will increase Kitchen lights.

For each of the 8 "key presses" I can have a different action??
i.e. scenes etc

Where do I get the IR codes from? I am using a Logitch Harmony in the
Lounge.

If I can get this to work with a HArmony remote I would be interested in
one of the NEO's, can you let me know off list how much

Regards

Paul
