Yes, use blue pair (both wires) for negative. Then send
zones 1 -6 out on the other wires. Inside the emitter
wires, there is one silver, and one gold wire. Make sure
to keep the colors right. Tie all the silvers together
to the blue pair. Use the golds with the corresponding
color for that device. A 350 would be easier, because
you could use the cat 5 for the antennae instead.
Thanks for the info. I finally managed to get it working without extending the emitters. I was looking up the mailing address of URC so I could send a mail bomb (kidding) when I decided to try taking off the antenna and that did the trick. It is working about %99.8 of the time.
It is strange because I would find a location where the status light wouldn't flicker on ID0 so I would switch it back to the correct ID and it wouldn't work. This is why I didn't think removing the antenna would help. RF is a strange beast. Also. I have an RCA DVR40 TiVo that only works when the emitter is directly on the eye. Most people said they had problems with the IR washing out if it was to close.
Anyways.. Thanks for the help.
Now I can finally get to perfecting my program. :)
