JP1 Remotes

I think the X10 shipping department should have caught and fixed the problem before it shipped. I think FedEx could have done a better job of finding me, but it all ended well. I hope you get your orders soon.

X-10 has many flaws but you cannot blame them on this one as they don't handle the ...

Talus,

In Canada Wal-mart charges $ 35-37 for the 8811 (red backlight).
I bought one and then I bought several more from Rob,

Drew,
(or is it Andy?)

Do you know that protocol analyzer will return more information on more protocols if you have DecodeIR.dll in the same directory?

If not, try it.

But can anyone tell me if the System Power Toggle can be made to work with a Yamaha Receiver (such as RX-V750)? I can't get it to work, even though it appears to have a code (from Yamaha).

You may want to try the Main Power ON and OFF codes at the top of the extended codes sheet. It would be very ...

Greg ,

The quote I included comes from the RDF specs.

Unless I am mistaken, IR does not deal at all with RDF files. On the other hand programs like KM and RM do take the button lists from RDF files. How do these programs decide the order in which to present the buttons (i.e. starting with "0 ...

Device Combining: an update

After several more attempts with the NEC1 2DEV Combo, I finally gave up. But then I tried the Device Combiner and that worked on my first attempt at combining NEC1 Devices 122 and 126.

I particularly liked the import function which should be added to the other ...

RDF3Spec.doc says:

The [Buttons] section contains a list of button names. It contains entries in the form:

[GenericName:]ButtonName[=KeyCode[:ButtonRestriction[{+,-}ButtonRestriction...]]]

Button names may be entered in any order, with the order determining where it will show up on the list ...

I've never seen RM fail to display the context menu on any panel panel. Never.
Greg ,

It's one thing to perceive a problem and an entirely different thing to pinpoint the exact circumstances that cause or contribute to a problem. I had to rack my brains to find it but I did find at least one ...

Greg,

I have made an upgrade for Dev 126 and it works.

I also tried setting subdevice equal to device. That had no effect whatsoever.

Thanks
JCT

Rob and Greg

My KM file for dev 126 was never used as a upgrade. I used it only as a worksheet when converting the Hex values from the Yamaha docs to the decimal values I needed. I therefore never had the opportunity to realize that I never entered a device code. And seeing a value of "0" appear ...

Greg,

Just curious, how do you arrive at 0 for device2.
Also, pasting columns does not always work.
I'll try your file tonight and keep you posted.

Thanks for your efforts
Regards.

JCT

Thanks Mark.

One more thing. Is it possible to copy data from a KM upgrade and paste it into a RM upgrade? I have tried many ways but unsuccessfully. Importing didn't work either.

Please let me know.
Regards.

Calling all experts

I need guidance in combining two KM device upgrades. They are NEC1 protocol devices 122 and 126 for the Yamaha RX-V1. They are in a file I uploaded to the Diagnosis area, and available here .

I would prefer to use RM as the Function-to-Key pairing is so easy to establish and ...

Thanks Nils for everything.

JCT

Nils,

That did it. First I did a reset on my remote, installed the new extender and reinstalled the devices and it worked. The remote appears to be stable.

There is something that I found *really* strange though. Previously, for each device, RM would display data in the "Upgrade Protocol Code ...
