Passing URL via RS-232 with MCEC #21

Closed briangun1 closed 2 years ago

We'd like to pass a unique URL from Crestron to the PC via RS-232 and open up a web browser with the passed URL. Are you aware of any way to accomplish this via your program? Thanks!

There's probably a few ways to do it. The first that comes to mind is to use send these commands:

shiftdown:winl to do the equivalent of holding the Win key down chars:r to press the r key shiftup:winl to lift the Win key might need to delay chars:<url> to type the URL in the run dialog VK_ENTER to do it.

Let me know if this works!
