Pronto: The Home Theater Control Panel

Pronto is a Home Theater Control Panel that allows maximum flexibility and customization for even the most sophisticated home entertainment system. It can control almost any device that works with infrared (IR) remote control signals. Its intuitive interface makes it a perfect remote control for every user.

Pronto is easy to configure. It contains a huge universal database where IR codes are stored to control different brands for all kinds of video, audio devices and even home automation equipment. By default Pronto is set up to control Philips and Marantz devices. For other brands you simply choose the brands of your devices when you use Pronto for the first time.

Pronto offers you some extra powerful features:

■ You can create and edit macros, allowing you to send a series of commands

with one single touch.

■ You can set timers for certain actions to be carried out at predefined times,

e.g. switching on your lights or recording your favorite daily TV-show with your VCR.

■ You can choose to have Pronto working with radio frequency (RF) signals to

operate devices from a distance or from an adjacent room. To do this, you need an optional RF Extender that converts Pronto RF signals into IR signals.

User Guide

With ProntoEdit software you can create your own screens and define a personal look. ProntoEdit’s Online Help system (accessible via the ‘Help’ icon in ProntoEdit) will guide you through the process. See ‘ProntoEdit’ on page 53 for more information. You can find ProntoEdit on the included CD-ROM and on the Philips website www Downloads section of the website you can also find the latest upgrades for your Pronto software.

The Device

Pronto has several hard buttons. Most are freely programmable, some have a predefined function:

■ The buttons on the left side of the Pronto screen have predefined functions:

Page up, Page down and Backlight.

■ The 4 firm keys below the touch screen are freely programmable. You can

reprogram the function of these buttons and change the label on the touch screen.

■ The cursor and the OK and Home buttons on the right side of the cursor are

programmed to operate devices (e.g. navigating through the on screen menu of your TV). With the Toggle button you can change the working of the cursor. The free programmable button is meant for future purposes.

■ The buttons on the right side of the screen are used to control the volume and

channel: Channel up, Channel down, Mute, Volume up and Volume down. Although these buttons each have a predefined function, you can

program them yourself. If you learn one of these buttons or assign a macro to it, its predefined function will be permanently lost.

What’s New for Pronto?

This new Pronto offers several new features compared to the previous model of Pronto. The most important ones are:

■ Transparency

Pronto supports transparency in buttons and other objects. This makes it easier to create complex user interfaces. You can now place buttons with a transparent background on top of a background image and let transparent buttons overlap.

■ 16 gray scales

The number of gray scales has increased from 4 to 16. Therefore the buttons look much more natural.

Page 9

Taking a First Look

■ USB

Pronto has a USB port to make downloading and uploading easier.

■ 4 MB of Memory

Pronto has 4 Megabyte of memory. This enables you to download larger configuration files to Pronto.

■ Integrated Macros

Macros are now better integrated in the configuration file. Each button can be a macro, this means each button can contain more than one action.

■ More advanced Timers

Your Pronto is able to set timers for certain actions to be carried out at any time you choose. Timers are not an entirely new feature of Pronto, but they are easier to use and better integrated with the configuration file. You can activate and deactivate the timers you created and you can also set them to repeat daily or weekly. For instance, you can have the lights switched on every day at sunset. You can also create a timer to set your VCR to record your favorite TV-show on Wednesday and Saturday.

■ RF

By default, Pronto operates your devices with IR signals. However, you can choose to have Pronto working with radio frequency (RF) signals to operate devices from a distance or from an adjacent room. An RF Extender (not included) is therefore required.

■ Page Overview

The Page Overview offers you a list of all the pages for one device. Every device comes with a Page Overview, making it easier and faster to browse through the device pages.

■ Cursor Navigation

By default the cursor is programmed to operate devices. The functions assigned to the cursor button depend on the device active on Pronto. Pronto also offers you the possibility to use the cursor for navigating through devices and pages on the screen. The Left and Right cursor buttons allow you to scroll through the devices, with the Up and Down cursor buttons you scroll through the different pages.

■ Animation Mode

Pronto provides navigation feedback through graphical animations of mode transitions and page transitions. You can enable and disable the animations of your Pronto in the Settings Pages.

■ Multi Language Support

Pronto now supports besides English also Spanish, French, German and Dutch.

Defining the Brand for a Device

Pronto contains a huge list of brands and their corresponding IR codes in its database. Pronto uses these IR codes to control devices. Because there are several brands using specific IR codes, you have to define the brands and the corresponding code sets for each device. You can either have Pronto autosearch the brand or select it yourself. If a device’s brand contains more than one IR code set, you also have to select it.

On the Device Overview you find buttons for the most common video and audio devices. Pronto is set by default to operate Philips and Marantz devices. For all devices other than Philips or Marantz, you first have to define the brand before you can operate them with Pronto.

The Learn Tool allows you to learn a button or a device action. A device action is an action that is executed automatically when you select a device. E.g. when you select TV, your Pronto can learn to switch on the TV at the same time. You can also use the Learn Tool to relearn commands that do not work properly.

Adding Devices

The Add Tool allows you to add a new device or copy an existing device. When you add a new device, a device template stored on your Pronto is used to create the device pages, buttons and functions. By default Philips IR codes are used when you add a new device. For your brand of device, you then have to program the new device using the Brand Tool (page 22) or the Learn Tool (page 24). Copying an existing device saves time. The personal settings you defined for that device will also be copied.

For instance, if you want to add a second VCR player, you do not have to define the brand, learn or create macros again. You can just copy them from the existing VCR player already programmed on your Pronto.

When you find that your Pronto does not send out the commands in accordance with what is indicated on the touch screen, it is advised to recalibrate the touch screen. Calibration is necessary when you notice that tapping a button activates one of the adjacent buttons or when you have to tap next to a button to activate it. Calibration enables Pronto to place the icons on the touch screen in line with their predefined functions.

Attention Never use an actual pen, pencil or other sharp object on the touch screen. Use a

pointy object like a plastic-tipped pen or a stylus intended for use with touch screens.

General Problems

Pronto shuts off automatically

This is a timeout feature of Pronto to save power. You can change the time Pronto stays active in the Settings Tool. See ‘Setting the Timeout of the LCD Screen’ on page 34 for more information.

The touch screen buttons on the Pronto do not respond properly

If the touch screen buttons on the Pronto do not respond properly, calibrate the touch screen. See ‘Calibrating the Touch Screen’ on page 35 for more information.

Devices do not respond to commands from Pronto

■ Make sure the Pronto’s sending eye is pointed towards the device you are

operating.

■ Check if the Low Battery icon has appeared on screen. If so, recharge the

batteries.

■ Check if your device understands Philips-Marantz RC codes. Normally you can

find this in the documentation of your device.

■ Make sure you have defined the correct brands for your devices. (p. 20)

■ Make sure you have defined the correct code set for your devices. (p. 21)

■ Check if the button you are trying to use is assigned properly via Brand Tool or

via Learn Tool. (p. 23)

■ Check if your device is in RF mode. Switch your device back to IR mode. (p. 52)

■ If you have set up your Pronto to operate devices with RF signals:

■ Check in the RF IR Tool if the devices you want to operate are set up

properly. (p. 51)

■ Check if the Extender ID and the Channel on your Pronto match the ID and

the Channel on the RF Extender.

■ Make sure the RF Extender is placed near the devices you want to use

with RF signals.

■ Make sure that the RF Extender’s sending eye is pointed towards the

device.

■ Change the Channel if you notice interferences from other RF channels.

■ If you want to use RF signals for devices on different locations, you need more

than one RF Extender. See the User Guide of the RF Extender for more information.

Troubleshooting

Customizing Problems

Buttons are not sending the correct commands

■ Make sure you have defined the correct brands for your devices. (p. 20)

■ Make sure you have defined the correct code set for your devices. (p. 21)

■ Make sure you calibrate your screen correctly. (p. 35)

■ Check whether the button of the device is learned properly. (p. 23)

■ Check whether the macro recorded properly. (p. 38)

Macros do not work

■ Make sure Pronto’s sending eye is pointed towards the device the entire time

the macro is being executed.

■ The sending eye is located at the top of Pronto.

■ Insert delays to allow devices to start up properly.

■ Check for inactive buttons in your macro.

■ Check if you did not reprogram the buttons. Macros do not store commands,

they store buttons. If you reprogram a button, the macro executes the new command assigned to the button.

Pronto will not learn commands

■ Make sure your Pronto and the remote control are positioned correctly.

■ When the sending eye of your existing remote control is not pointed

towards the learning eye of the Pronto, Pronto might not receive the signals properly. Align the remote controls as correctly as possible.

■ When the distance between your existing remote control and the Pronto

is too short or too long, Pronto might not receive the signals properly. Try out several distances between 4 and 8 inches (10 and 20 centimeters) to learn the commands.

■ Avoid programming Pronto under bright fluorescent light or in sunlight:

it might affect the infrared signals.

■ Make sure the batteries in the Pronto are not low.

■ Press and hold the key on the other remote control for more than one second.

User Guide

Glossary

Action An action is a command that will be executed by Pronto. An action can

be an IR code, a link, a delay or a beep. You can assign one or more actions to a button or a hard button. It is the same as a macro.

Action list An action list is a list of actions assigned to a button or a hard button.

An action list can contain up to 250 actions.

Animation mode Pronto provides navigation feedback through graphical animations.

These animations can be found in the Animation mode. You can enable and disable the animations of your Pronto in the Settings Pages.

Branding Pronto contains a list of brands and their according IR codes in its

database. Pronto uses IR codes to control devices. Because there are several brands using specific IR codes, you have to define the brand and code set for each device.

Button alias See Link.

Button backlight The Button backlight is a special light source that is placed behind the

hard buttons on your Pronto, enhancing the visibility of these buttons.

Calibration Calibrating the touch screen enables Pronto to exactly match the icons

on the touch screen with their predefined functions.

Code set A code set is a list of IR codes. Audio and video devices of different

brands use different code sets. A device can only receive and execute functions from the correct code set.

Cursor navigation There are two ways of navigating through Pronto: using the touch screen

or using the cursor for navigation. When you select cursor navigation, the cursor can only be used for navigating through devices and pages on Pronto touch screen, not for controlling audio/video equipment.

Delay A delay is a pause between two actions. A delay gives the device

enough time to execute the first action before it receives an impulse to execute a second action.

Device Every device in the configuration file appears on the Device Overview

Page of Pronto and in the tree view in ProntoEdit. A device represents the equipment you want to control with Pronto, for instance a TV, VCR, CD player, Amplifier, Satellite receiver or any device operated by an IR remote. The device contains a number of pages with buttons.

Device action A device action is an action that is executed automatically when you

select a device. E.g. when you select TV, you can learn your Pronto to switch on the TV at the same time.

Device Overview You use the Device Overview on Pronto to access the different devices.

The Device Overview contains buttons for each device in the configuration. By pressing these buttons you navigate to the first page of the selected device.

Device settings The device settings are the type of device, the brand, the IR code set

and the functions. In order to control a device with your Pronto, you first have to set the device settings.

Device template You can create a template from a device in ProntoEdit Advanced Mode.

When you add a new device on Pronto, this template will be used.

Firm key Pronto has 4 firm keys located below the touch screen. The label of a

firm key is displayed at the bottom of the touch screen. You can configure the functions of the firm keys, just like most hard buttons and the buttons on the touch screen. The strength of the firm keys is that you can also configure their label, so they can always indicate the function assigned to them.

Hard button A hard button is a button that can be pressed and generates an event.

Hard buttons can be found on Pronto. Their layout and visual aspects cannot be changed. You can configure the functions of the hard buttons, just like the firm keys and the buttons on the touch screen.

IR Short for infrared.

IR code Pronto sends out infrared (IR) signals to operate devices. IR codes for all

kinds of video and audio device brands are stored in Pronto’s universal database. By selecting IR codes and assigning them to buttons and hard buttons, you can program your Pronto to operate your equipment. When IR codes are not present in the database, you can always learn them from the conventional remote control of your equipment.

Label A label is the text you want to put on a soft button or a firm key.

LCD Short for liquid crystal display.

LCD backlight LCD backlight is a special light source that is placed behind the LCD

screen, enhancing the visibility of the screen.

Link A link, also called a button alias, is a shortcut from the action list of one

button to the action list of another button. Instead of adding the same actions to several buttons or hard buttons, you can create a link and reuse the action list. When your Pronto is executing an action list and comes across a link, the action list referred to by that link is executed.

Macro A macro is a sequence of actions executed when pressing a single

button on Pronto. Every button or hard button can act as a macro and perform a list of commands. It is the same as an action list.

Mode animation When you switch from using the Pronto to the Tools Menu, the Pronto

icon shifts at the top area of the touch screen. This is called a ‘mode animation’.

Page A page of a device is the area of 320 by 240 pixels on Pronto's touch

screen containing buttons or other objects.

Page animation When you switch from one page to another, the first page slides out of

the screen and the second page slides in the screen. This is called a ‘page animation’.

Pronto Pronto is a universal remote control with a touch screen. You can

customize and fully configure Pronto to your personal needs: the devices you want to operate, the functions you want to perform and the layout on Pronto.

Page 67

Glossary

ProntoEdit ProntoEdit is the visual editor for creating and configuring Pronto

Configuration Files.

RF Short for Radio Frequency.

RF code You can choose to operate your devices with RF signals instead of IR

signals. To use RF signals, you need an RF Extender. The advantage of RF is that it spreads in all directions and that it pervades walls. In other words, you can operate your devices from an adjacent room.

RF Extender An RF Extender is a converter box that receives RF signals and turns

them into IR signals to operate devices. When your Pronto sends out RF codes, the RF Extender receives them and sends out IR codes to your devices.

Settings Tool The Settings Tool allow you to consult and adjust several settings, for

instance consulting the battery level, setting the date and time, calibrating the touch screen, ...

Simulator Pronto simulator is a separate application in ProntoEdit package, which

simulates every aspect of your Pronto. You use Pronto simulator to test your PCF without the need to download it to your Pronto. When you make changes in Pronto simulator, they will not be saved in the configuration file.

Soft button A soft button is a button that can be found on the touch screen. The

layout and the visual aspects of a soft button can be changed. You can also configure the functions of the soft buttons.

Timer A timer allows you to define actions to be carried out at predefined

times. For instance, you can set an alarm or program your VCR to record your favorite daily TV-show.

Touch screen The touch screen of your Pronto is the centered area that contains soft

buttons you can use to operate the remote control.

USB USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a ‘plug and play’ interface between a

computer and add-on devices (such as audio players, joysticks, keyboards, telephones, scanners, and printers).
