zazel1 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 Little help please:1)I have SR-250 programmed for color buttons to be used for PS3 actions (circle/triangle etc..). I would like the colors to be active as those commands only when PS3 is active.I want to use the color buttons for other actions when watching cable. Is this possible? I assume some if/then and vaiables need to be set up?2) I have a triple tap function in my theater to "all off" and raise lights etc. Can I get this macro command to work with the room off button on the SR-450?Thanks up front.

ILoveC4 Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 You can do both those things. Just use a conditional statement on the colored button press.When Red Button is pressed :IF source = PS3, do xxxIF source = DVR, do yyyetc...For the triple tap event just say when Room Off command is issued, do xxx.Check out www.c4diy.com.

zazel1 Posted October 24, 2010 Author Share Posted October 24, 2010 Thanks for prompt response.I tried the format with the conditional set:When command 'Yellow Button' is receivedIf the current Audio input on Theater->Receiver Output is = INPUT CBL/SAT Execute scene 'Dim Lights'I also tried usingIf the current Video input on Theater->Receiver Output is = INPUT CBL/SAT Execute scene 'Dim Lights'Neither will work. What am I overlooking/doing wrong?Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srhamy Posted October 24, 2010 Share Posted October 24, 2010 You're triggering off some weird points.Programming TabSelect the Room (Top Left)Choose "Commands"Choose "Yellow Button"Select same Room in Actions (Top Right)Go to Conditionals (Bottom Right)Select "Video Device Selected"Choose your device from the dropdownEnter your command (indented)Add a Stop (Indented)repeat for any other devices besides what you want as default (don't forget the stop with each)Add The default command (if not one of the other ifs are triggered) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esmadja Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Which color button did you assign to each of the Trianagle, Square, Cross, Circle?I am trying to come up with something useful and each to remember.Thanks for you suggestions.Little help please:1)I have SR-250 programmed for color buttons to be used for PS3 actions (circle/triangle etc..).

Cyknight Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 While up to personal preference, I have the color of the original icon mapped to corresponding color on remote. The only one off in this is the square - pink on controller, goes to yellow on remote.That said I almost never use these as I've by now "learned" which buttons on the remote do the actions that correspond to the icons (Cancel, Info, Enter and Guide for Circle, Triangle, Cross and Square).

esmadja Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Thanks for your response. I think I will go with that. The colors on the ps3 remote while pretty washed out compared to the Xbox remote do match for three of four buttons so I will use your suggestion.While up to personal preference, I have the color of the original icon mapped to corresponding color on remote.
