Programming Properties
Introduction to Properties
Properties windows are used to quickly modify all kinds of RC5000 looks and behaviors.These
windows can be accessed by double clicking, right clicking (and choosing Properties from the
Context menu) or by pressing the Insert key on your keyboard after
SELECTING the item or
widget you’d like to modify.You can access:
System Properties (global changes to your entire RC5000) under Home in tree view.
Device Properties (local changes to a particular device) under the Device in tree view.
Macro Properties
(local changes to a particular macro group) under the Group in tree view.
Frame Properties (labels, art and colors of the Frame) in Panel View.
Button Properties (IR codes, Macros, labels, art, colors, etc.) in Panel View.
Active, Inactive, Selected and Unselected
Understanding the exact meaning of these terms is critical to successful properties program-
ming.
ACTIVE The button has an entry in its Action list.The button is programmed to do
something when pressed.You can make a button active by programming a delay
in its action list.
INACTIVE The button has no entries in its Action list.
SELECTED After the button is pressed while it is executing the Action list, it is selected.
UNSELECTED
Before the button is pressed, it is unselected.
The Action List
On your RC5000 there is a clear distinction between macros and “regular buttons.” In RC5000
Setup, such a distinction does not exist. Every button and every direct-access or left/right key
can either perform a single action, like transmit an IR code, or be a macro and perform a whole
list of actions.The action list is the place to learn Infrared codes AND to program macros.
Note All macros can be used on your RC5000, but only macro buttons in a macro group
panel can be edited on your RC5000.
