Programming Sequences
All switches on the 590-10 can be programmed to send a single IR command or IR sequences of up to 40
commands.
1. Click the switch to be programmed.
2. Open all palettes to be used in the sequence.
3. In the palettes, click on the commands in the order of the sequence to be sent.
4. The code names (function/brand/component) for that switch will appear in the order selected in the command
list.
5. To remove a code from the command list, right click on the code, it will disappear, showing that it has been
erased.
Editing Sequences
1. The Command List can be edited by dragging and dropping any command on the list to any position on the
list. Left click and drag the command to be moved. As you drag upward and you want the command between
two existing commands, drop it on the lower one. As you drag downward, drop it on the upper one.
2. You can delete any command on the list by Right Clicking on the command.
Timed Delays
1. Timed delays can be placed in a sequence. Click the left < and right > arrows under “DELAY” in the
Command List window for the number of seconds you want (i.e. 2 = 2 seconds).
2. Double Click within the “Delay” outline. This will place the delay at the end of the Command List and the delay
time appears on the list (e.g., Delay 2 Sec).
3. Left Click and Drag the “Delay 2 Sec” line and drop it between any two commands you have placed on the
Command List.
4.
From the File menu, select Base Unit Transfer. The project should be transferred to the 590-10. If project
does not transfer, check connections,
Figure 1
, and Com Port connection in ‘Preferences’. Try Base Unit
Transfer again. Project should transfer.
TESTING COMMANDS AND SEQUENCES
From Dragon Drop-IR
1. With the PC connected to a PCIR, a connecting block and components as shown in
Figure 1
, select the
“TEST” button in the virtual 590-10 window. It will be highlighted in red.
2. In the virtual 590-10 window, click the button for the IR command to be used to trigger the IR sequence in the
590-10.
3. The IR command or sequence shown in the Command List for that button will be sent out the PCIR IR output
to the components to be controlled.
4. Make any changes to the sequence as needed.
From The 590-10
1. With the 590-10 connected to an emitter or connecting block (as needed given the number of components to
be controlled), and with all switches properly connected to the appropriate terminals, close the switches, one
at a time, to trigger the 590-10.
2. The 590-10 should output the proper IR commands to the components.
3. Make changes to the sequences as needed in Dragon and transfer the project again.
4. Repeat steps 1-3 until all controls are proper.
