Adding a new Device to the IR Setup Menu.

Perhaps you buy a new remote control appliance, or maybe you want to program signals for other TVs in your house. You will have to add the new devices to your IR SET UP MENU.

For this example, let's say you want to add a TV in your bedroom.

To Add a Device to the IR SETUP MENU

1. Go to the Toolbox and open the IR SETUP MENU.

2. Activate Add a Device.

3. Spell the device name (e.g., TV BDRM) and activate OK.

Note: You can use up to 15 characters for a device or function name.

Spell the name of the first function you are going to teach to your device (e.g., POWER), then activate OK.

4. Teach the signal to your device.

Continue to add functions and teach signals or exit the IR SET UP MENU.

Once you have added the new device and its functions and taught your communication aid the new signals for the functions, you must decide how you want to store these signals so that you can use them. Do you want to create a TV BDRM page like your other remote control pages?

Do you want it to be part of your REMOTES activity? Or do you want to store the functions under different icon sequences on your communication overlay?

For an example let's say you want to store the TV BDRM functions on a TV BDRM page and that you want the page to be part of your REMOTES activity. You also want to be able to go to any other remote page from your TV BDRM page.

An easy way to accomplish this is to use the CREATE PAGE key in the Toolbox and copy one of the existing TV remote pages to work from.
