Switching to another device without affecting the active device
If you switch to another device and you have defined a device action for that

However, if you want to switch to another device without sending those RC
codes, you have to follow this procedure.
Example
You have defined a device action for the VCR: when you select the VCR, the
TV switches to channel number 10. Now you want to keep watching channel
2 on the TV when you switch to the VCR for rewinding a tape.
