There are only 256 possible OBC1 values (ie, 0-255) for each OBC2 value. The fact that you found one button with a different OBC2 value certainly opens the door to the possibility that there are others to be found. It appears that you went as far as OBC1 119 using OBC2 0, so you could still test ...

Another concept which is useful when you're trying to cram too many devices into one remote is, some devices aren't devices that you really use directly, they're more like device that help you use other devices, like a/v selectors for example, so for devices like that it's usually best not to waste ...

Multiplex has the same effect as holding the setup button and manually entering a new setup code. So you're correct that you need multiplexers to change to different setup codes and to change back to the original.

I use a mulitplexer like yours where I multiplex 9 devices on the same device button ...

Just an update on this from my side. I still have no luck with the JP1.3 Common Extender, however, I thought I would try the older Comcast specific JP1.3, version 1.02, here:

Comcast JP1.3 30393039 error with J1.3 Common V3.05

Hi,

I was excited to hear about this extender for the Comcast 30393039 remote.

Unfortunately, I had trouble with the extender after I installed it and could use some help.

What worked:
1) Merge install using RMIR v2.09build8 on Ubuntu 18.04
2) Uploads to the remote
3) Extender appears to activate ...

It looks like you're looking at the RMDU file using Notepad, you really should be viewing it using RMIR as it will give you much more information.

From what you've posted, that RMDU file is using the regular NEC1 protocol with device code 122. The fact that there's no sub-device means that the sub ...

Post your RMIR file so we can see how the newer upgrade went south when you added it to your remote.

Hi mdavej,

Thanks for offer for the help with the RMIR. As I was cleaning my RMIR, I inadvertently solved my problem.

For the benefit of others, I had replaced the old device Yamaha HTR-54x0 ...

Comcast JP1.3 30393039

After reviewing my old devices and comparing old files I found something strange.

It seems I was using an old Yamaha HTR-54x0 file to control RX-V620.

The keys defined for the HTR-54x0 also seem to work on my RX-V685.

Hi Rob,

Thanks for the quick response and the pointers on NEC1 vs NEC1-f16 protocols. I thought I was using the zones correctly, but I will double check the Yamaha manual. I appreciate the confirmation that the Comcast JP1.3 will support the NEC1-f16 protocol as that will save me some time ...

The DIY Gadget flash cable does not work with JP2 remotes. It is able to write to JP2 remotes, but not read from them. We don't know why. The latter pages of this thread lists several cheap ways to get a FTDI USB to RS232 adapter, and of course it is available from Mouser too.
