GETTING SOURCE COMMANDS FROM THE INTERNET
Xantech.com
There are some IR commands that can be difficult to learn in Dragon. Xantech edits and posts some of these
commands at xantech.com under Products/IR Code Libraries. (See website for listings and download
instructions.) A direct link to xantech.com can be found in the “Links” option in the Dragon menu bar.
Remote Central.com
There is a second option for on line IR codes. remotecentral.com provides an almost unlimited resource of IR
commands. The code files at Remote Central are not directly compatible with Dragon Drop-IR and therefore need
to be converted for use with Xantech software.
1. Click “LINKS” in DRAG460.
2. Click on Remote Central Website. Your browser will open and take you to Remote Central.com.
3. Click Files in Remote Central.
4. Click Philips Pronto & Marantz RC5000.
5. Scroll and click on desired brand under "Component Configurations" (CCF files).
6. Click on component type (CD players, VCR's, etc.).
7. From the list find a Model Number the same as your model or one similar to it. (Even model numbers
considerably different than yours will usually have commands that work).
8. Click on DOWNLOAD (this may take a few seconds), then select Save it to disk, then OK.
9. In the Windows ‘Save As…’ pop-up, Open the ccf folder within the Drag460 folder (if not already open). Click
Save.
10. In DRAG460, click Import CCF from the File menu.
11. Find the ccf folder in which you saved the file and click on file name.
NOTE
: At this point, prior to opening it, you may wish to change the file name (e.g., RCA-DSS, etc.) for
easier recognition later. You may wish to do this in step 13 as well.
12. Click Open. This unzips the file and DRAG460 automatically places it in a folder within the ccf folder.
13. Click on file name, then on Open. At this point, the CCF file is converted to DRAG460 format.
