Hi
I have been carrying out some more testing with the GUI Client. I'm using a new install of IRTRansTray and IRTrans GUI Client on an XP SP3 PC that has not had the IRTrans software installed on it before. I've downloaded the latest copy of the IRTrans software from the IRTrans website.
If I take a remote control and put the GUI Client into learn mode the USB IRTrans can read the new remote code fine and I see the remote code displayed on the GUI Client's screen. If, within the GUI Client, I then try and send an IR signal the red light on the IRTrans flashes but the remote controlled device does not respond. I can't see any output from a camera pointing at the IRTrans transmit LEDs either. I noticed on the GUI Client that there is an option to choose which LED to send IR output too. This was set to 1 and when I set it to "All" the IRTrans works proprely! My IR controllable device operates correctly and I can see all 4 IR transmit LEDs flash in a camera when I send a IR command with the LED Select option in the GUI client set to "All" or "Internal" but not if set to "Default". If I try and send IR commands from IRTRansTray it still doesn't work though. Is there a setting I can change in IRTRansTray to make IRTRansTray use the internal IR LEDs too, like in the GUI Client? I have options in Configure IRTrans for "Internal LEDs active" and "External LEDs active" but these options are greyed out and not ticked. I have tried pressing the "Reset To Default" button in Configure IRTrans but this doesn't recify the problem. In fact whatever I set in Configure IRTrans and click on set if I open Configure IRTrans again all the options are always unticked. When I open Configure IRTrans the IRTrans flashes red a few times but it never flashes when I set an option. I have an IRTrans v3.5, and I'm using v 1.4.0.3 of the software downloaded recenlty form the IRTans website, is the software fully compatible with my older IRTrans?
Thanks
