<p>
The asccociation process of the iMON 2.4G DT/LT remote.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
Due to the design (could probably have been
better), an application needs to have an open
connection to the lirc-daemon*, to allow the
association process to start.
</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
To associate the remote you need 2 terminals.
</p>
<dl>
<dt>1 To:</dt>
<dd>Find the "sys" entry and
start the association process</dd>
<dt>2 To:</dt>
<dd>Start a process that has a connection
open to the lirc-daemon</dd>
</dl>
<p>
The example is shown for bash but sould be quite easy to adapt for (t)csh
</p>
<pre>
Term #1 | Term #2
--------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------
# file=`find /sys -name associate_remote` |
|# irw
# echo > $file |
--------------------------------------------+----------------------------------------
</pre>
<p>
Then you hold down a button on the remote. And soon the
"irw" process should start to spit out keycodes.
Just stop </p>
<em>(Ctrl-C)</em><p> the "irw" process,
and you should be good to go.

*) This is because the USB device connection is
only initialized when the lirc-daemon gets a
connection to an application, and when it is
closed, the USB device connection gets closed
too. So only in this period it is possible to send
packages to the usb-device.
