PGXL Bypass Connect Dialog and just connect?

Wayne Westfield · May 2020

Is there a way to start the PGXL Utility that bypasses the connect dialog and connects to the AMP? Maybe a command line. I am trying to script the start up of the applications I use to operate.

Kind regards,

You could use AutoHotKey and write a hotkey macro to simulate clicking a mouse on the required button. It works really slick and even comes with a utility to read the mouse position to set it up. You can generate the necessary hotkey with a SendKeys command in your script.
I have been using it for quite a while and really like it.

Please post exactly your script if you find one that works

Tnx

+1 for AutoHotkey, Craig. I use it as my main scripting tool. I've automated lots of tasks on my Windows 10 PC, including SSDR, previously. I had it set up to start DAX and CAT and shut them when exiting SSDR (before they implemented that into SSDR).

Here is a script that I wrote for AutoHotKey to activate buttons on the KPA1500 Remote program. You could modify this with the correct window title and button position to do what you want. Note: use the WindowSpy utility that comes with AutoHotKey to find the position of the button in the PGXL window.
