With a right mouse click and "edit" you can adapt the device to your needs. Generic Turntable comes with one more facet. This facet is called "Device Strings" and allows you to add the remote control commands from the manual of your custom device to EMC32.

There is an example of a custom device called "Siepel", which can be loaded via "Import Settings". This is only an example, the device strings for your customer device can be different, please refer to the manual of your custom device to find out more.

Once you have entered all strings into EMC32, you can use the "Test" facet to check the function of the commands before you start your first test.
