Creating and Learning an IR Protocol

IR protocols can be learned by the UDM-0404 by using the device’s remote control to program its
commands into the UDM-0404. This is performed via options in the Protocols page.

The UDM-0404 can learn between 8 and 25 IR commands, depending on the command length and
protocol used.

IR Learning with a Device’s Remote Control

1.

In the Protocol page, open the IR protocol drop-down menu, and select New (FIG. 90).

This action invokes two additional fields: Name and Initialise (FIG. 91):

2.

Name the IR protocol appropriately, and click on Initialise.

3.

Select the action which is to be performed from the Action drop down menu (e.g. vol up - FIG. 92).

4.

Click on Step 1 (FIG. 93).

The device’s own remote control can still be used locally at the device to control the
device.
