Universal Remote controller
for any *fast* Amiga
(e.g. 3000, 2500, etc.)
By
Jamie Mueller
If you have build the circuitry up properly, the program UniversalRemote
should allow you to record and play back Infa-Red remote control signals to
let you control VCR's, TV's, Stereo's, etc.
Please Note: These programs A) will only work on Amiga's fast enough to
digitize the remote being used (my Amiga 500 is useless with this), and B)
the files created will only work on the machine that digitized them, or an
*EXACT* duplicate machine (e.g. files should be interchangeable between two
25MHz 3000's with the same CPU settings--a timing thing).
The program universalremote will let you create/record/playback/save the
codes for remote controls. Use this one to build your 'library' of
controls.
The program urrexx is an AREXX interface to the control. Running urrexx
once 'installs' it, running urrexx a second time 'uninstalls' it. To access
urrexx in AREXX use 'address UR.REXX' and the two commands: load & play.
Give load a file name (such as 'load JVC_VCR' etc.), and give play the
name of the function to send to the VCR/TV/etc. (such as 'play power').
Case is not important with urrexx, but remember to name the functions
uniquely with universalremote. You can test urrexx by putting it all in
one line:
2> rx 'address ur.rexx load vcr' and
2> rx 'address ur.rexx play power' etc.
If you have any questions I can be reached on GEnie as J.L.MUELLER.
