Great that it works Now you can play with the lua files. The User Interface of NADIR is to my opinion nicer than the interface of the ARCAM files. Use the Volume.lua of the ARCAM and enter the codes of the ARCAM in the NADIRApplet.lua. -- Egnos

Just posted this on the Duet board: "Sorry for the trouble but I was just messing around with my Controller to see if a plugin that I had recently installed works and inadvertently hit the volume down button and, to my amazement, my Cambridge Audio 840A responded! I installed the ARCAMI_V2 file

You are making progress nice! First edit the NADIRapplet. lua. (or you can use the codes from the ArcamIE_V2.zip located in the ArcamIRApplet.lua and use them in the NADIRapplet.lua which probably has better codes for your amp). Leave the Volume.lua alone until you have the NADIRapplet.lua work

I'm guessing I can alter the code in the .lua file in Windows Notepad and then use SCP to transfer the altered .lua file(s) to the Controller? Which. lua would I begin to alter first? I think I've hit a roadblock once again cuz when I opened an .lua file file in Notepad I really had no, and st

Hi Newy You need install WinSCP which is a secure copy application. Google WinSCP to find the latest version to download You also need to enable remote login on the Controller (which will give you a password 1234). On WinSCP enter:- 'Host name': yourController's ip address 'login name': root

I'm using a modified volume.lua file to control my Meridian amp. It's a great development but there are a few drawbacks that I've found. The most serious one is if you use headphones plugged into your Controller -you get a lot of interference (from the ir emissions?) when adjusting the volume.

To control your amp with your Duet Controller you can use the enclosed zip file. This example only works for a NAD amplifier (C352). But if you know the IR codes of your own amplifier you can easily change the applets for your amplifier. In the previous verson of the applet it was not possible to
