There is no "all power off" code - nor can there ever be since manufacturers not only use different IR codes, but different IR formats (carrier frequency, encoding system, use of checksums, etc). What you will have to do is create a macro with all the discrete power off codes that you can find.

With Sky, there is (IIRC) a workaround of using the Sky button as a discrete power-on and Sky+Power for a discrete power-off. These may work the same way on a Sky Plus system.

I have the prontopro. I had a working all power on/off on my sima sur-20 and wanted one on the pronto pro as well.What I ended up doing was tricky but worked. I set the prontopro down on a table and then set down the remotes for my TV, Satalite receiver, and amplifier. I then selected learn for the TV ON button, and in sequence pressed the power button for each of the three remotes that I wanted to have activated by a single button. This took several tries before I got it working but when I was done I was able to power on all devices or power down all devices with a single button.

So you learned all three ir codes into one?

First I don't see how that is possible. If it works, then in time it will not work.

Second, why? Any button on the pronto, all models, can have more than one action. This is called a macro, which can be anywhere on the remote. Doesn't have to be on the macto side.
