Re: Still More suggestions for CDJ - AMP ON/OFF

John,

You might want to play around with the IR commands defined for your amp to see if seperate power_on / power_off commands exist. As with most remotes, the one for my Sony amp only has a single power button which toggles the power. However, the amp actually does have seperate on and off commands that it will recognize. You can determine this by either looking through some other predefined device files for the manufacturer's equipment or by creating additional "test" entries in the amps device file for IR codes not currently defined. Send each of the test codes until you either find the codes that turn it on and off discretely or run out of codes, in which case the amp doesn't have the capabilities. Once you find the proper codes, then all you need to do is to place them in CDJs startup and shutdown sequences in place of the toggle power command.
