Hi,
I have just created a button with a overlay graphic icon for tv channels e.g. TV3, TV4 etc. My challenge is that I cant figure out how to send more than one IR code e.g. channel 21 consisting of IR for 2 and 1.
BRDGS,
Jacob

I think that you have at least three options:

1. Configure an ir device command for each channel using the All Numeric option (refer to ir device help file)
2. Create a task for each channel sending the individual commands and then use a button to trigger the task instead of changing a property.
3. Create a script to read the channel number from a property (set from the button) and parse the value into individual ir commands. This way you can use the same script for every channel button you create.

Hope it helps,

Victor
