Hey All

Now I have tried the Foxtel Decoder file I found here but it doesn't work. I have Foxtel IQ and I found a km file which is txt how do I go about making this a bin file for sling.

Anyone that has got the remote working with Foxtel IQ I would really appreciate the help as I am going around in circles.

(1) Read the sticky post at the top of this forum.
(2) Read the beginner's ReadMe (linked in my sig below), but focus only on how to use RemoteMaster (RM) - you don't need Keymap Master (KM) nor IR.
(3) Download and install RM from the File>Tools>Main area.
(4) Open the file you're interested in in RM.
(5) Select the appropriate Slinbox remote (JL or PU) on the General page of RM, and make your function to button assignments as you desire.
(6) Use the Export to BIN function of RM and your BIN file will be created.

Hey Capin

Thanks for getting back and the pointers. The problem I am actually having is I am finding a lot of older KM files that our .txt files but when I try to open them with RM I get a few errors.

Will try KM on the PC at work with Excel tomorrow see how I go.

Please provide links to the specific KM files that are failing in RM.
KM can not generated binary files.
