Your conf file runs OK on my pCP and enables NEC protocol but dosent on your pCP

I called your file "Nec.conf" and edited it in MS Windows Notepad

rtf is rich text, the file must be plain text. We can handle the Dos->Unix line endings, but not much else. There is very little error checking going on with the file you upload......it takes the user knows what to do. I would have to add some more dependencies to do more error checking.

Notepad++ is the best windows editor for working on files on a linux system.

Notepad++ is the best windows editor for working on files on a linux system.

I fully agree with you! Unfortunately it didn't exist for MAC. I made the file (RTF!) with Textedit.

Normally Mac should be closer to linux than window.... :-(
