Lux23 is a front end for the Heyu X10 automation
program. It provides a command line interface for
configuring and controlling the X-10 UX23A "VCR
Commander II" RF-to-IR converter device. The
converter emulates IR remote controls for TV, VCR,
DVD, cable box, satellite box, and CD appliances
from a variety of manufacturers. A cable with
three IR emitters is shipped with the device,
providing for control of up to three compatible
appliances via RF signals. It requires an X-10
CM17A "Firecracker" device to transmit the RF signals.
