Normally you would assign a keymove to a phantom button to invoke this protocol, but if you're uncomfortable using phantoms, pick a shifted button that you don't need.
When you're programming the keymove, select the HEX radio button (ie, don't use EFC) then enter the hex code for the delay you need. Hex $10 would give you a 1 second pause, $20 would give you 2 seconds, etc.

Unless you have some sort of key move defined for the TV button, the pause in that macro doesn't make any sense. TV simply selects the TV device mode on the remote; it doesn't send any other commands. The Pause would have no effect on anything. Am I missing something, or is there a reason you think you need that Pause?
Here is a series of commands decoded from an Official Pronto ccf file posted at the Pronto website. These are for TV/0154 (the main built in setup code in the 8910 and most other OFA remotes). Where is says command not available, that means you can't get it by assigning Advanced codes aka EFC's. It will take the creation of a device upgrade for the upper 64 commands of RC5 device 3.
The point is try these commands first and see what you can get to work. Then you can go to macros and after that to the advanced features of an extender. As you can tell there is a pattern to the input commands. All discrete power commands are the same IF the unit responds to it.
DEVICE(0000BF28) "Pixel Plus"
panel "Discrete Power"
EFC=082 RC5:0:061 Discrete OFF
EFC=018 RC5:0:063 Discrete ON
EFC=044 RC5:0:012 Power Toggle
AV1 is a Macro for the following four commands in sequence:
1. EFC=Not Available RC5:3:072
2. EFC=037 RC5:3:004
3. EFC=223 RC5:0:081
4. EFC=031 RC5:0:087
EFC=069 RC5:3:005 Side AV input
EFC=210 RC5:0:057 AV2

Can't wait to get home to try all the ideas everyone gave me.
The reason I want a pause in my macro is because it seems that after TV is pushed, it takes my 8910 a moment to digest that command, and by pushing Power right afterwards doesn't work, but if I wait a couple of seconds it does.
Now that I have the pause protocol, how do I enter it into IR.exe?
When I paste the following code into the add protocol area IR.exe asks for a protocol ID - what do I put? Here is what I am putting in:
0 = 01 FB (S3C80)
00 00 01 E4 03 C2 C6 C0 00 00 0A FE 1A FC 2A FA
AF
End
Also, the protocol txt file also says I need the following 'code' upgrade - does that mean I add it as a device? Here is what it says:
To use the protocol you also have to install a device upgrade like this one:
Upgrade code 0 = 1C 50 (TV/1104)
FB 00 01
End
If it does have to be added as a device, should it be added as a particular device?
I guess what I'm asking for is a walkthrough for adding a protocol in IR.exe if possible.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated. I searched the forum before posting this question. Thanks!!
