Tuning Script for USB-UIRT

[sflamm]

Created Powershell USB-UIRT Tuning script (attached)

Handles TUNING via:

1. sageX
2. uutx
3. uutransmit

Can be invoked standalone or called automatically via OpenDCT.

Standalone invocation:

Unzip and open Command prompt in unzip folder.

1. tune.bat

tune tunerNumber channelNumber

where tunerNumber:

Zone: 0 = All, 1 = Right, 2 = Left, 3 = Internal

2. tune.ps

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -File tune.ps1 -TunerNumber tunerNumber -ChannelNumber channelNumber -Log

NOTE: -Log flag is optional

Customize the script "tune.ps":

1. modify default tuning method

Param([string]$TunerNumber, [string]$ChannelNumber, [switch]$Log=$false, [int]$DeviceNumber=1, [string]$TuningMethod="sagex")

Currently set to "sagex". Options: sagex, uutx, uutransmit

NOTE: SageX requires the installation of the SageX API package

2. If you have more than one USB-UIRT device change the default DeviceNumber as appropriate

or specify via command line flag: -DeviceNumber deviceNumber

3. Customize the general properties

$SageTVIRCodeFiles = "C:\Program Files (x86)\SageTV\Common\RemoteCodes\USB-UIRT Transceiver"
$IRCodeFile = "PaceRNG150"
$IRRepeatFactor = "1"
$IRDelayMS = 0
$AddEnterKey = $true
$EnterKey = "ok"

a. Adjust IRCodeFile to match your file name
b. Sample IRFiles are in the folder IRFiles (copy to SageTV)
c. set EnterKey to $false to not input enter key.
d. Enterkey can be any key in IRfile

OpenDCT Installation steps:

1. unzip to your ProgramData\OpenDCT folder

2. Add Tuning entries to opendct.properties: (remember to stop OpenDCT service before modifying properties file)

sagetv.device.79219557.tuning_executable=C\:\\Windows\\SysWOW64\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -F C\:\\ProgramData\\OpenDCT\\config\\tune.ps1 -TunerNumber 1 -ChannelNumber %c% -Log

Modify TunerNumber as appropriate for each tuner in opendct.properties:

Zone: 0 = All, 1 = Right, 2 = Left, 3 = Internal
