IR triggers working?

[Cosworth]

As a new owner of a USBUIRT I've been trying to use Xlobby's IR trigger features, but can't seem to get it working. I learn some codes and assign some of them as triggers for events/commands but nothing ever happens i.e. nothing gets triggered.

Does anyone have this working?

Trigger works fine, in setup go to edit ir plugin,
chose device xlobby,
make new comand "show overlayX"
Set id, when it turns green press your remote , a number will show.
now learn ir, (press same button as in set id)
goto event manager chose a event you like to tigger (show overlayX)
in triggers chose ir
alias:(xlobby)
command: show overlayX
Press add
Now when you press your remotebutton overlayX will show (or what ever event you hav set to trigger)
Hope this make sense...

Thanks!

So it only works with the Xlobby device??

I gues it works on any device, i have only used it with the xlobby device...

Yup! works fine with other devices - thanks.
The logic why you hve to learn an ID is beyond me though and toggle codes are a major nuisance with this ID system as it doesn't allow for 'dirty' codes (simulating both toggle states with one 'dirty' IR code - a frequently used trick in the pronto community).

I wanted to use a 3-in-1 remote for the misses as it is simple, well known and the 3rd device was free. Unfortunately it uses toggle codes, so no deal.

Ah well - back to the drawing table
