Yep, yep and yep.<br><br>One emitter worked just swimmingly...<br><br>then I enabled the other emiter with a set_transmitter (3 iirc) statement at the top of a copy of the channel change script. Then it would change channels on both units. I tried all sorts of means of electrical tape and card board and putting them on separate sides of the same wall to try to isolate and remove the possibility of IR interference... and the problem continued.<br>
<br>I would love to get that solution working, as my newer Asus board was in limited supply when it came to serial ports (hence my need to add the PCIe card just to get a second serial port). But I spent a good two or three weeks trying all sorts of different ways of configuring software and hardware and the dang IguanaIR still kept tripping both DTA's.<br>

</div>IguanaIR should work great with your Comcast DTAs<br>
<br>
You're saying that you were able to get the first emitter to change<br>
channels correctly?<br>
You're saying that requests to the second emitter would change channels on<br>
box DTAs to the same channel at the same time?<br>
<br>
Did you isolate the emitters to make sure the emitter signals aren't<br>
scattering?<br>
does your channel change script for the second emitter contain something<br>
like<br>
irsend set_transmitters 2<br>
so that you are not sending the command through all emitters?<br>
