Interdigit Delay ........................................................ Enter the amount of time to wait between digits when
tuning, applicable only when using IR control.
Receiver Type .......................................................... Select the type of receiver control that you will be
using. Select IR if you are opting to have the module
connect to any IR driver. If you are using IR be sure
to adjust the Pulse and Interdigit timing for proper
channel tuning via IR. If your receiver is equipped
with a Low Speed Data port you will need to select one
of the two serial options. “Old” generally refers to
Sony SAT-A1 receivers and up. “New” reflects the
protocol change for the Advanced Program Guide or
AGP for short. This adds two bytes to the command
and supports newer RCA receivers. If you are having
trouble controlling your receiver via its Low Speed Data
then switch from on format to the other and test the
module again.
