Thanks for the replies. The remote I have is OARUSB04G, and I haven't put an extender on it; all I've done is loaded a couple device codes that I've gotten from the forum. Incidentally, I did try just holding down on the macro key, but that didn't work (I was hoping what jeajea suggested maybe would ...

Simulate a long key press in a macro?

I am trying to build a macro to turn on all of my devices at once, but unfortunately my receiver (Philips FR975) requires a long key press to power it on. Is there any way to do that in a macro?

On a related topic, if I can somehow map a short key press of a button to the long press behavior, that ...

Trouble loading Device Upgrade on OARUSB04G

Hi-
I've recently gotten an OARUSB04G remote that I'm trying to load the device upgrade for a Philips FR975 receiver onto. I haven't used the tools in many years, so apologies if I'm asking something obvious here.

When I try to load the upgrade in RMIR, I get an error, "The upgrade file is for ...

Alternative to 74HC266?

Hey all-
I'm curious if there is an alternative to 74HC266 that I can use; I'd like to try building the IC JP1.2/1.3 cable, but my local electronics stores only have NTE components, and being the novice that I am I haven't been able to figure out a mapping to an NTE part number for the 74HC266. I ...

Serial JP1.2 interface: Can I use transistor VN2222LL?

Hey guys-
I'm taking another stab at getting my JP1.2 remotes up and running with a home-built cable. I tried this a couple years ago and the cable I built then seemed to work for a couple days, and then gave up the ghost. Anyhow, I was just looking at it again and noticed that I used VN2222LL ...

Unfortunately I've tried on several different computers, with different OSes, and I get the same error everywhere... so it seems like either the cable or the remote has a problem, but I don't know what could have failed, or any additional diagnostics to do. I've tried the tester program, and it just ...

Did my JP 1.2 cable go bad?

I was merrily using my JP 1.2 cable to upload and download some stuff a few days ago with no problem, but since then every time I try to use it I get a "Failed to connect to JP 1.2 interface" error. I do see the LED on the remote flash a couple times, but that is the only outward indication that ...

Thanks for all the advice. Thus far I've been unable to repro the crash I was seeing previously; perhaps it was some garbled learned signal or something. At any rate, I went through and copied all of the buttons into RM for the Optoma HD70 and uploaded it... it seems to work fine for me (I left the ...

Success!

By setting the OBC2 value in RM to the second OBC, I am able to get the digital input on this system finally! It would probably be worthwhile to include this in the master Pioneer file, do you want me to update/repost it, or will you?

thanks!

Needed DecodeIR

OK, I just added DecodeIR to the working directory, and now I'm happy to report that the signals are being decoded as "Pioneer" as would be expected. HOWEVER, now there are 2 signals, whereas before only a single one showed up. Here is the new info:

Protocol Pioneer
Device 165
Sub-Device
OBC 94 ...

I didn't see anything about DecodeIR in the Help/About for IR7. I basically just installed IR7, keymap, and the RDFs. Is this my problem?

OK, I went back over and re-learned everything, and I think that maybe there is just some flaky/garbled data every once in awhile. I'm now able to get everything to be filed as either NEC1 or NEC2... is that consistent enough?

I'm using IR7 beta 3, with my JP 1.2 remote URC 8820. Will it hurt for me to add a second entry into my code file for this (as INPUT: Digital), just so that I can keep it straight?

thanks

As a followup, I re-learned a subset of the commands, and things are working fine now... could it be that I had just tried to learn too many at once?

However, I do see that there is inconsistency in the protocols that the learned commands are saved with. For the Optoma projector with about 10 ...
