JP1 Remotes

I'm just about halfway done. It's a multi-day project as there are approximately 300 electrolytic capacitors. I'm still uncertain of the precise count since I have yet to gain full access to the bottom PCB. Unfortunately no service manual was ever publicly released, so it's been quite a ride. There ...

2003/fwd.delay+ = stereo actually is correctly labeled. It corresponds directly to the 'normal stereo' button on the front control panel of the unit. Although there is also the separate dsp function, the code for it still remains elusive. This 'digital signal processing' option is the ability to ...

2001/on.off = (ld)
2001/ch+ = (dss)
2001/ch- = (dvd)
2001/vol- = (cable)
2001/mute = (cd)
2001/go back [test] = (tape)
2001/guide = (vcr)
2001/info = (tuner)
2001/left = am/fm
2001/select = 10+
2001/menu = (tv2)
2001/enter = (sat)
2001/tv.vcr = (tv1)
2001/record = (md)
2001/*All numerical digits are ...

Yes that's how it goes sometimes: no risk = no reward. ...And to mention...my preamp has been in need of a total capacitor replacement overhaul. So it's difficult to be absolutely certain whether the erratic code in question is solely the fault of my particular equipment; or if it would affect ...

OK great. I had initially thought that the list of results was complete and prime for sharing. However, after some verification testing, I've since realized that there are a few nagging surprises which require further scrutiny and revising. Four of the codes are now rather mysterious (because their ...

I was actually about to ask if it would be acceptable to share without use of the spreadsheet. Yes, it's much easier for me to just list the correlated functions. I'm glad that you're fine with it.

A correction with your example to line three, button 4 is macro3

So it's:

2004/2 = macro1
2004/3 ...

OK, I tested all seven of the Kenwood test upgrade device profiles. There were indeed some newly discovered (aka unlocked/applicable) command codes. Unfortunately, the more desirable codes such as Holographic Image, Panel Dim, & Full Automatic Operation remain unknown.

As anticipated, the majority ...

Yes Rob, I'm willing to help and understand the procedure. I'll begin the process of elimination sometime tomorrow.

OK Rob, I'll post my follow-up within the linked thread.

Yes, you're correct. I became certain that it was nothing but junk data after analyzing some of it through IrScrutinizer. Perhaps the trash codes were uploaded as some sort of prank? I may be new to the remote scene, yet I have already noticed more useless files than anticipated (mostly at other ...

I do not have an original functioning remote. It was never given to me along with the used preamp. A buddy of mine does own an original, but it's defective. His remote spontaneously wiped itself one day. All of its preamp and stored device codes were lost. So essentially, I'm attempting to resolve ...

Fantastic, thank you again Rob. I have three compatible remotes capable of learning: two ARRX15G and one RCA RCU810. Tonight I actually just installed the JP1 port mod on the old 810, which went well.

The primary equipment I ...

Thanks for your clear and concise answer. It makes perfect sense now.

Another function I'm still uncertain how to do: Manually assigning pronto hex codes to individual buttons. I assume this is supported within the aforementioned RMDU utility of RM? I've never attempted to do this, perhaps it's a ...

It was obvious to me how to successfully upload .rmir files to a remote.

Unfortunately I do not see how to do the same with .rmdu files.

Perhaps .rmdu must first be converted to .rmir before the remote can be programmed?

Please forgive me if my question is beyond idiotic. I'm a total noob to this ...
