USB-UIRT Forum

I probably have something wrong...trying my first state count.

I want to use the Power Button to toggle between loading and unloading my MyHD 120 card. Here is what I have done:

• I created a MultiGroup
• I added a command for Open
• I set the State settings to Count=2, Beginng State = 1 (Expecting first press of IR to load the program...and it does)
• I created a command for the Open command of O.S. Execute and browsed to the file to open
• I added a command for Close
• I set the state settings to Count = 2, Beginning State = 2 (Expecting next click of button to close program, and reset the State to 1)
• I created keystroke command of Ctrl-X (Check mark in Ctrl, x in Sentence), and clicked on Alternative proc (I don't know why I need to do that, but basic instructions had that done, and it works on individual command)
• I set the Target to the MyHD window
• For the group, I learned an event of the IR key

It opens the program, but does not close it. I did test the commands with individual commands, and they both work.

I am presuming I have something wrong with the State, but after reading the help instructions on state on the web site, it looks to me like I'm doing it right.

Any thoughts?

Well, I figured it out.

First, even though the Ctrl-X worked when I had a single command, I had to use the Capture Command (my first attempt...I did it!) to capture teh close of the program.

Then, I had to do the state count to 3 instead of 2; first command Begin on 1, second command begin on 2.

Don't know why the problem with Ctrl-X, but at least I'm going.
