Mom has a transmitter, Dad has one as well. They trigger the seat, mirror, and pedal memory. Does anyone have any tech info on how I can accomplish the same. Astro has the seats, but that is all. I had a customer that REALLY wanted a R/S.... BUT having these features was a must. I had the Astro 801, but they would have to carry 2 transmitters. Not cool. Any ideas, or help? This guys a "snowbird" so he will be headed to Arizona soon. Getting away from the depressing winters here in Washington state. -------------

What do you mean? you want both their comfort features on one remote???? DEI has their remotes that have channel linking and work seperately on each remote. Basically their remote will trigger different channels depending on the remote that is being pressed.

No, not on 1 remote..... one EACH. Mom has hers, Dad has his. The astro unit has ALL KINDS of programable outputs, and yes, each remote is 2 car able. -------------

Im confused. You mentioned they would need to carry 2 remotes. Now, you mean the factory and the astro remote? Im just saying the way the vipers, other work is this way. Transmitter 1: unlock will trigger the doors and will trigger another channel like channel 4 at the same time. Channel 4 triggers user settings 1. Transmitter 2: unlock will trigger the door and will trigger channel 5 which would be user settings 2. Is that what you mean??

The Astro 801 is a 1 button R/S. Thats all it does. SO, if I used this option (if there is NO WAY to make all of the adjustments as the factory transmitter does) Only then, would the customer carry 2 remotes. The other multi button transmitters from Astro can trigger 4 selectable outputs outputs and triggers are not the question/issue here. It's what and where to use them. What to connect too. As I said, I know where to get the triggers for the seats.....that's all though. That leaves the mirrors, and the foot pedals.

On a side note, I saw the 801 and it seemed really nice. I downloaded a quick demo of the astrochart and I must say it looks very informative. I will definitely do my best to carry this line. I checked the closest dealer to where my partners want to open up the shop and its roughly 8 miles away. If all goes well i'll have Astrofex under my belt if its possible. If anything may you help me on the actual requirements that we must have to get this line????

Nice, i'll give them a call first thing tuesday. Monday is a day off I plan to do nothing. I'm in NYC so like I mentioned earlier the closest dealer is in brooklyn and the other in CT. Shop that hopefully would open sooner then later(still in the first steps of finding the right location) will definetely have a say in it. Thanks
