Thank you very much! Editing the IR Toy file solved my problem!
In terms of my WinLIRC problem I also found a solution. Instead of running WinLIRC in background and starting Transmit.exe to transmit, I created a batch file which starts WinLIRC and than Transmit.exe. After transmission is completed WinLIRC is closed. Because the processes are run from the same console environment, there are no problems with inter process communication. The batch file locks like this:
I decided to add an timeout just to be sure the main program is fully loaded and the com port is opened before I start the transmit attempt. The second timeout is just to be sure the transmission is completed before I kill the process. Maybe both timeouts are not necessary...
I purchased the USB Infrared Toy v2 to turn on and off my beamer. My Computer (Win 7 x64) should be able to send the corresponding IR commands via batch files run by time scheduler.
The USB device itself seems to work well. I updated the firmware to v22, the self test works and I am able to record and send data produced with my Philips remote control with irtoy.exe.
Unfortunately, the data patterns of my Optoma remote control are not correctly recorded or send. My beamer is not recognizing the replayed data. I think it has something to do with the carrier frequency.
I tried it with the more powerful winlirc software which was successful. With winlirc and the program Transmit.exe I am able to send commands via command prompt. Unfortunately, this is only possible, when I start the command prompt and click one time with the mouse at the WinLIRC Window. If not, the Transmit.exe program is not able to access the hardware.
Is there any straightforward way to replay the data pattern via command prompt?
Attached is the record from the off button with irtoy and winlirc
