PROGRAMMING RC68+ TRIGGERED SEQUENCES
Programming the RC68+ Triggered Sequencers is similar to programming macros under GTL buttons.
1. Click on the RC68 TAB in the SmartPad LCD Systems window.
2. Open all the IR and RS232 palettes and IR Library commands for the devices to be controlled in the
sequence.
3. Select the RC68+ Sequence Trigger Command to be programmed. (i.e. click on the button 80 or any of
the other 54 buttons shown below under the RC68 TAB so it is highlighted in blue.)
4. In the appropriate palette of CMD list of the IR Library, click on the command to be associated with the
selected RC68 Trigger command. The code name (function/brand/component) of that command will
appear in the Macro Command List window.
5. Repeat for all commands to be associated to this trigger command. A maximum of 40 commands or
may be placed under each RC68+ Trigger. This includes Delay commands).
6. Repeat steps 3 thru 5 for any of the desired 55 RC68 Triggers.
Note:
It is recommended to write down the RC68 Trigger command button and a brief description of it’s
macro function (i.e. Button 80 = Turn on Recv and CD, Select CD and hit play). Use TABLE 1 in Appendix
A to record the descriptions of these commands.
TEACHING RC68+ TRIGGER COMMANDS TO A UNIVERSAL REMOTE
The Macro’s created above must be triggered by RC68+ commands as issued from a Universal Remote or
another Keypad or IR Receiver connected to the CSPLCD’s IR IN bus (
Figure 3 – 20)
. This requires the use of
the RC68+ Handheld Programmer (sold separately) or Dragon Drop-IR Software (Xantech programmable
devices only).
1. On the rear of the RC68+ Hand-Held Programmer, set the Code Group Dials to ‘C9’. (No Overlay
needed)
2. Set up the desired Universal Remote to learn commands according to the Manufacturers instructions.
3. Select a desired button on the Universal Remote to issue the RC68+ Trigger Command and locate the
properly numbered RC68+ button on the RC68+ Hand Held Programmer (i.e. Button 80).
4. Transfer the command from the RC68+ Hand Held Programmer to the Universal Remote according to
the Universal Remotes instructions.
5. Repeat steps 2 thru 4 for all of the desired RC68+ Trigger Commands programmed.
PROGRAMMING THE URC-2B/P FOR USE WITH CSPLCD RC68+ TRIGGERED SEQUENCES
Programming Xantech Model URC-2B/P (Black or Platinum) Universal Remote to trigger the programmed
RC68+ sequences can be done in two different methods: either identical to the procedure above (teaching
directly with the RC68+ Hand Held Programmer) or by using Dragon Drop-IR Software.
To program the URC-2 for operation with the CSPLCD using Dragon Drop-IR software, please do the following:
Note:
Drag450 Version 2.0 or higher will be required.
1. Open Drag450 Programming Software by double clicking on the Icon on
the desktop.
2. Either open an existing URC-2B/P project or create a new project.
3. Once the URC-2B/P Base unit is open, click on Palettes and select
RC68+ Command Palette from the Drop Down Menu (or simply press
the F5 button)
4. Click on the OPTIONS TAB on the RC68+ Command Palette.
5. Under Xantech Model select CSPLCD.
a. If CSPLCD is not found in the Drop Down list, select MAC1 as
shown in
Figure 27a
on the right.
b. Change the Code Group under the Options Tab to
C9
.
6. Verify the Code Group setting is set to
C9
7. Click on the Palettes TAB
8. Click on the desired button on the virtual URC-2 you wish to trigger the
macro created on the CSPLCD (i.e. CD Button as shown in
Figure 27b
below).
