It was set to IR as shown in the manual, and after the Crestron database IR files did not work, we captured the menu IR command with the Crestron USB IR learner from the remote. Testing it from Toolbox with the USB learner directly worked. However, when the captured IR code file was added to a SIMPL program the command would not work. The wired emitter was a visible light emitter so we could see it was transmitting and it was moved around the DTV receiver to find the receiving eye. The controller is a DMPS3-4K-350. At this point we may try a Crestron Certified driver for IP control or get DirecTV to bring out a different model receiver.?
