The Magig Hat trick with learning remotes...

Let's Automate.com shows a good sense of humor in their product description of the Kameleon URC8206 learning IR remote:

"Note that the setup instructions provided are slightly confusing when telling you how to enter setup. The instructions say to press the Magic Hat until the rabbit comes out. This is not actually possible as you have your finger pressed on the button, so can't see the rabbit come out. You need to press the Magic Hat for a few seconds, and when the remote enters setup, the number buttons on the remote will change their designation to devices. At this point you can remove your finger from the Magic Hat, and you will see that the rabbit has come out."

    Ah, thats actually a serious statement. There were issues like that with the manual. It amazed me at first when I also saw it on their site. :D

    Press with the tip of your fingernail, and you can see the rabbit appear.

    Magic Hats and Rabbits - must have been on LSD or something when they designed that remote!

    Mind you OneForAll remotes always say things like "press TV and it will flash" when you can't actually see the TV button as you are pressing it!
