[QUOTE="globaldonkey, post: 796334, member: 49844"] You will notice that the repeating will happen when you point the remote slightly away from the VFD / IR receiver. Experement by pressing the ESC key while on the home menu and gradually move the remote so that it starts to point away from the VFD. Eventually you will cause it to repeat as you reach the boundary of the IR receiver's pickup angle. The immediate solution is to re-centre the remote so that it points directly at the VFD and press the same key again. It seems that there is some sort of start and stop command being sent to the receiver when a key is pressed. If you point the remote away from the VFD, sometimes the start command is received, but the stop command is not. That's my theory anyway.
