Hi,

I'm using the Atlas 1056 2.11 extender and I want to be able to select a device at the end of my macro but it does not work.

Here is my macro:

X_TV;Phantom3;X_AUD;Phantom10;Phantom1;X_DVD

The macro works but stays on TV instead of selecting the DVD at the end.
I guess it's the way the extender works but I was wondering if it's possible to do it.

By the way, this macro is a DSM.

X_DVD is the temporary device selection key that affects all key sets.
You need to use the other _DVD keys as needed for the key sets you want to be in effect. Or you can use the DVD key itself, depending on how you've defined the macro for that key.

Ok, I have finally found the DVD key.Sorry about that.
It's fine now.


Well, it seems like it only work for the M keysets and switch back to TV if I press other keys...

How can I select the DVD and all it's keysets?

The DVD key do not appear in the IR available key list.

The extender has an "implied" X_Cancel inserted at the end of every macro, so any X_xxx command won't survive the macro definition

You need to install the proper series of device selection commands (I.e. M_DVD, etc) into your macros to make this stick

At the risk of piling on, I'll suggest looking at the ReadMe.txt file distributed with the extender, and re-reading the sections titled Device Selection and Temporary Device Selection.
