Hi Arishy,

I just checked the operation and it does indeed work on my system with CTRL+ALT+G.

Please verify that your USB IR Toy is working correctly (via command line). The reason we set Arduino as the default, is because of the potential to inadvertently'confuse' other sytems by sending certain strings in error. So for now we plan to stick with the Default of Arduino. Similarly, VID/PID identifications is not sufficient because of the prevalence of clones etc.

Also, make sure you have selected the corect COM port for the IR Toy & check the firmware is not corrupted.

PS
If you are using an unregisted version, thencommunication with source devices is not enabled.

If you are using a registered version, then make sure you have the latest 'dev' update, which can be requested by email....support @ .....

OK, so I cannot change the default source in AnalysIR. How about SAVING a setup so I can download it when I start a session.
This way my USB IR Toy is always selected.

If this is OK please give me the proper steps to that.

Under normal operation, the last device used should be remembered (when you exit the application gracefully)...so try it out with the latest update that I have just emailed to you.

I just verified this is OK. If it is not working for you make sure your IR Toy's firmware is OK.
