This feature can be used with a component like a Projector, that need “2 seconds” of
continous IR output to turn on or off. You would uncheck the “Repeat while button is pressed” box and set the
“Projector On button” to repeat.Typically, most IR commands are about 7-15 repeats in one second.You’ll have to
experiment to find how many repeats equal how many seconds with each new component you try this with.
When the button is pressed, this macro step will output a string of 20 repeats and reliably turn on/off the projector.
Essentially, you are creating sustained burst (as if you were Pressing & Holding the Projector On button) when you
this advanced IR code manipulation feature.

Connect the MX-6000 to y
our computer, via the USB cable and click on the “Test” button to test the new IR code.
Experimentation will teach you what works best for different problem components. Make shure you add problem
compnents like projectors to your “Device Library”, so you only have to go through this process one time.
