I'm not sure why it would take you "hours" to load and download the info - what do you mean by that? I program several RLC4s and an RLC3 and yes, there is a learning curve, but if you sit down for an hour or so with the manual it isn't really all that bad.
The files I use to program the controllers contain anywhere from 10-30 macros, plus all the timers, IDs, command prefix, and the other stuff I put in it, and it only takes three or four minutes to transfer it to the controller. Personally, I think the RLC controllers are extremely versatile and fairly easy to program once you get the hang of it. If you want, I can provide you with more assistance and some examples of macro files that I have written.

It has worked great but is a big pain in the !@@ to program. We recently traded some things foir a Link RLC-4 controller but here we go again, it is just different enough that you need to stop and read the manual (very time consuming)! What controllers do others use? Is there a controller that has windows based software to program it? The Club has Windows software but it takes hours to load and download the info! What do you use and how easy is it to program? Bill for AARO Yahoo! Groups Links Yahoo!
