The original reply from Ken, suggesting problems may be encountered if COS was set when asterisk starts, or if it stays set for too long seems to have been at least part of the problem.<br><br>I restarted Asterisk rather than just reloading config, and things starting behaving more as expected - with verbosity set to 7 I'm now seeing RPT_RXKEYED = 1 every now and again.<br>

<br>That's a good plan.<br><br>So I take an unmodified fob, that does have volume buttons on, and plug it into a PC. 'volume down' button does indeed trigger the windows volume bar. But this fob and button don't do anything on Asterisk.<br>
<br>My modified fob - taking pin 48 to gnd also triggers the volume down on Windows, so that suggests it's not hardware?<br><br>Jim M0HPJ<div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 12 February 2012 11:45, Jim Whiteside <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jaydublu2002@gmail.com" target="_blank">jaydublu2002@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
