Send IR from Remote

I remember reading somewhere where you can send IR directly from the remote.  I have the device added and know the HEX codes.  How do I add this in myDesigner6?  I'm assuming it is a Client Command...but what is the syntax?

Thanks!

Thanks, seems easy enought, but...I have two remotes...adding a Generic device with one IP means it only works on one device. I can go through hoops with IF logic, but I was hoping something would be a bit easier.

Every IR emitter you wish to use gets its own Generic IR Device setup.  If you have 2 smart remotes, you need two Generic IR Devices.

Use the IR Database to retrieve the codes for each type of device you wish to control.

To control a specific device in a specific room, you need a driver setup for that device.  For example, use the BluRayIR driver to control the BluRay player in the Family Room.  When you configure this driver, you assign the IR Device (what emitter to use) and the IR Model (what code set to use).

Are you trying to use two remotes in the same room to control the same device?
 

Both remotes are in the same room, they both do exactly the same thing. I simply want the button to work on either device. Because this controlled device rarely needs its setting changed, I can simply set the emitter id to a variable and change it via a button on the screen. It's not elegant, but it's functional.

If I go crazy, I will write a macro that looks at the remote issuing the command and changes the variable.

One thing that you could try is to create two instances of the controlled device, one managed by each remote.  Then put the right device on the right remote screen.

Another solution would be to purchase a Global Cache IP2IR, and use it to manage the device.  Then either remote would work.  You also get the benefit of not needing to point the remote at the device to get it to work.
