JP1 Remotes

I got Tommy's newest JP1.x cable and have it working perfectly under Vista 64. It didn't like the newest but works flawless when I used the CDM 2.04.06 WHQL Certified drivers.

Al, next time upload your file to the Diagnosis Area and include a link directly to it in your post. Ideally, the device upgrade section should contain only fully working upgrades.

I know, but it takes all of 5 seconds to bend the pin and try it again. Bending the pin is reversible. It's not mutilating the remote at all. If it doesn't work, nothing lost, and nothing broken any further. Just bend the pin back.

I've bent and unbent pin 5 on my first remote multiple times when ...

Bend Pin 5 on the remote to make it work.

A partial reason you haven't seen as many 1056 OCAPs on eBay the last couple of weeks is I was religiously hunting for them. I snagged a few of them as soon as they showed up. The first one was non-backlit while the last two are. It would be nice to snag a learning version. It seems like someone ...

I was able to program both of my remotes on the P3 500Mhz Windows XP PC.

I'm unable to program on other systems with Single-Core Vista 32bit or Dual-Core Windows XP.

On the ancient P3 500Mhz Windows XP system, I'm also able to program the Cox 7820B JP1.3 remote.

The systems I'm unable to program either remote is a Dual-Core Windows XP system, and a Single Core Windows Vista 32bit system. I'll try reinstalling the software on both of them to see if I can get it ...

I dragged out my ancient beater box that is a P3 500Mhz Windows XP SP2 and amazingly enough I am able to download and upload to the Atlas OCAP 1056 remote. Once I get it loaded with the needed device updates, I'll try to program the Cox 7280B JP1.3 remote.

Not sure if this is related or not, but I'm also having issues with upload to an Atlas OCAP 1056 JP1.3 remote using Tommy's USB JP1.X interface in XP. Here's what I posted in my original thread:

Things are getting more interesting now.

I now also have an Atlas OCAP 1056 JP1.3 remote. After ...

Things are getting more interesting now.

I now also have an Atlas OCAP 1056 JP1.3 remote. After performing the pin-5 bend, I am seeing the same issues. The upload seems to process for longer time before indicating the error. I am able to download from the remote but not upload to it. I'm using the ...

I know there's a difference in JP1 / JP1.X, but I figured when he said "JP1" he meant any sort of JP1-ish 6pin programmable remote. After all, we don't have separate forums for JP1 and JP1X hardware or software...

Atlas OCAP 1056.

I tried it both with and without bending pin 5. It only worked with pin 5 bent. What voltage do the batteries have to be? Here are the voltages as measured on a digital multimeter:

1.490 and 1.495 (Set A, both came with remote, 1 month old)
1.594 and 1.586 (Set B, both brand new out of package)

I bent down pin 5 to get the interface detected and read.

I am able to download/read from the remote, but unable to upload ...
