Hello! I just got my URC 6131 from Rob, (Thanks again!) and built my JP1 cable at lunch and downloaded and tested my work.

I was able to download my configuration (Yeah!It worked!) but noticed that there are 2 extra items on the GENERAL device buttons.
I have a DEV 7 and DEV 8.

Are these real? can I use these?

They are real, but there is no device button for them. You'll have to use some other button to switch the active device. These phantom devices give us hope that there is an 8-device learning version of the 6131 in the pipeline.

To use these phantom device buttons, you need to program macros that have either dev7 or dev8 in the steps.

I usually program two macros for you, which I assign to shifted device buttons, but you could re-assign these to the THUMBS buttons (for example) if you like.

Yep, there they are under macro! Excellent!

Thanks once again!
