Please Please help, I have recently bought the Pronto PRO 980 and some light controllers SK305/05. I understand that although the controllers are RF the Pronto can still control them.

I have seen other threads on this subject.

Could someone with the knowledge please let me know the codes and where to enter them!

THANKS

Well, not exactly. There are no universal remotes on the market capable of learning and controlling RF devices.

Pronto RF is intended for the sole purpose of communicating with the extender, which in turn retransmits the signal in IR format. There has been VERY limited success in controlling RF devices directly in Europe/England, which I assume is the case with you. In order for this to happen, frequency and many other factors have to match up (you have to get real lucky). The ONLY thing I remember working is European X-10 devices.

There are some utilities in the files section that will generate code sequences of the same protocol. This may allow you to get additional working commands. It would also be a good idea to post the IR codes you have that work. One of the code experts could then make some suggestions.

Can you post that working code you have?
I have some code for a Philips light switch. If they match I can send you my codes.
