OPERATING YOUR SPITFIRE
Your SpitFIRE should be connected to a PC COM
port using a modem cable or a NULL modem
cable with a NULL modem adapter. If you use
the software included with the SpitFIRE software
you must select a COM port before it will
communicate.
To insure that the SpitFIRE is communicating to
the PC, click one of the source buttons (CBL, TV,
VCR or AUX). You should see the green LED
indicator on the SpitFIRE and on the PC remote
flash once. If it does not flash, try a different
COM port and check your cable.
Programming Overview
Before operating an entertainment product, the
SpitFIRE must first be set up to send the correct
codes. To program the SpitFIRE through the PC
for a specific TV, VCR, Cable box, satellite, or
DVD code from the included infrared remote
control "library," the procedure is:
SEND CODE
RESPONSE
SOURCE (TV, VCR, CBL, AUX)
1 FLASH
PROG
2 FLASHES
3 DIGIT DEVICE CODE
1 FLASH FOR EACH DIGIT
PROG
3 FLASHES
If you don't see 3 flashes when the final PROG
key is pressed, the SpitFIRE has not accepted
your 3 digit ISI code. A table of ISI device codes
is provided at the back of this manual.
For example to set up the SpitFIRE to control a
Sony TV (ISI# 038):
