3. EXTERNAL REMOTE CONTROL AND START/STOP DECTECTORS INPUTS

See HID USB external remote project : http://iptime.sf.net/remote

iPTime allows to use external remote and capters which are connected to a USB port.

This remote or the capters inputs run like USB external keyboard.

External remote :
    
Direct start and stop for green and red (main) pointer
Direct move up and move down green and red pointers
Direct access to older and next times
Escape key

External inputs for detectors :
    
Red wire : signal Stop
Green wire : signal Start
Black wire : common

if Red wire is opened, no stop detected.
if Green wire is opened, no start dected.
if Red wire is closed, (looped with black common wire), a Stop is detected and Control-F1 is sended to iPTime.
    iPTime stop automatically the player selected by RED pointer.
if Green wire is closed, (looped with black, common wire), a Start is dectected and Control-F2 is sended to iPtime.
    iPTime start automatically the player selected by GREEN pointer.
