Question: Has anyone effectively programmed this to a car remote start without rewiring?
Document: I absolutely love it. I currently use it for my A/C and TV in one room. i programmed the tv to cycle through favorite channels and just use the fav channel as a single action when I'm not sure what i want to watch. in a seperate room i have it programmed to work with my WDTV live.I noticed its hard to point at something without it activating a command by accident. so instead What ive done is put commands that wont do much harm such as the arrows on the remote to the swing animations, then i purposely trigger them while pointing at the device i want so as not to accidentally trigger something else.
As a prop this thing is just plain fan-TAST-ic!. The quality of the build and functionality of the sound effects are awesome. I read through the directions for programming the remote and it seems pretty straight forward. Haven't programmed it yet but I intend to. But even if the remote doesn't work like I expect I would still give this 5 stars just for being a solid quality prop and it will probably be a collectors item later on. It looks great sitting on my bookshelf by my TV. The only thing I want to see if that the effects continue to work with age.
Once you've mastered the gestures (it took me about 2 minutes), you can push the bottom button again and go into the control mode where it works as a universal remote. It will make sounds each time you preform a gesture and does the function you want it to. Press the button a third time and it goes into a silent control mode - remote control without the sounds. Press the button a fourth time and in enters the FX mode where it just makes sounds and does not control anything. Great for Cosplay adventures.To program the device you do two short presses and one long press of the bottom button.
It is heavy and feels like a real tool, rather than a toy. I would even say it is heirloom quality. In addition to being well constructed, it really does work. Well, it doesn't open locks and start cars and such, but as a universal remote, it rocks! Like all universal remotes, it maps it's controls to that of the original remote from whatever device you want to control. On this one you use gestures, instead of buttons. The set up is pretty straight forward. For those who what to know, here is a quick outline on how to use it.First, you put in a AAA battery.
It's a sonic screwdriver. That's also a remote. There's awesome points just for that. I didn't find it difficult to learn to use the gesture commands, although if you're watching TV you might want to put it in silent mode and turn it off when you're not using it (or else it'll start spitting morse code at you, which is awesome unless you're trying to watch something). The batteries are easy to change as long as you have the right size screwdriver to open it with (irony, right). Very durable, although if you're planning to carry the sonic in your pocket, be aware that the top green emitter may come loose- this can be fixed by surrounding the base of the green part with a thick layer of superglue, which does not affect the functionality of the remote at all.
This is very cool. The metal construction and heft make it seem so real. I programmed it to turn the television on and off.
This item is incredible and easy to set up for any Whovian! I recommend it for anyone who wants to have that Dr. Who involved feel while watching TV.
Steep learning curve, but well made, good materials, cool sounds and just all around awesome. Hours of fun for anyone. Worth the cost.
dose exactly as it says, controls electronics with an easily programmable Sonic Screwdriver. Would recommend to anyone wanting a Doctor Who themed way to control devices.
For example, if you program it to change the channel when you wave it up, it will change the channel just by picking it up. Then when you go to put it down, the motion of putting it down will active whatever function you programmed for the down motion. Quite maddening. But, like I said, worth every penny if you are a Doctor Who fan and you want a quality (i.e. not made of cheap plastic) sonic screwdriver!
Answer: If your remote start is IR and not RF, it's certainly possible.
