JP1 Remotes

[deh_2k4]

Hi all,

I was told by a member on AVSForum that there might be someone here that could help me to get discrete on/off power codes for the new Samsung 360 DTV receiver.

I was told that the JP1 forum has utilities that could convert a code into usable hex-code for a Pronto NG.

I was hoping that someone might have already done this and could help me out.

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Is "360" all there is to the model number? So far, the only HDTV boxes we have codes for are the SIR-T150, SIR-T151, SIR-TS160 and SIR-TS165, so you see the model numbers we're used to seeing are a completely different format to the one you quoted.

Do you know if this model even supports discretes? If you have heard that it does, do you have the codes in any format?

IIRC, recently in the AVS Forum/Remote Controls someone reported that the discrete power commands from the SIRT-T160 worked. If so the classic Pronto hex commands are in this thread

While a number of us here understand the classic Pronto encoding scheme and can decode Pronto commands, how to convert "classic Pronto hex" to the NG is probably better answered in the NG forum at RC. I think you do it in whatever software comes with the NG, but I don't know the steps.

Now if you want to put those commands in an OFA remote, it's really easy...

Thanks for the help guys!

Generally speaking, classic Pronto Hex code works fine in NG. So far, I've had 100% success in coverting classic remote files and/or using just the IR Hex. I have seen users discussing times when it doesn't work, but I haven't had any problems.

I take it from that thread that the complete model number for this DTV box is SIR-TS360. Do we know if they TS360 responds to the same code set as the TS160?

I think it is SIR-TS360 and at the very bottom of this thread (right under your response ) it looks like the commands are close.

I believe it is the replacement for the SIR-TS160. I think most of the commands are the same for the SIR-TXXX series, BUT, AFAIK only the DirecTV receivers have been confirmed to have discrete power commands in the older SIR-T1XX series.

I just created a KM file for the TS360 based on codes found in a CCF file.

I also created a spreadsheet that cross-references all the functions for the T150, 151, 160, 165 and 360.

I'm awaiting the arrival of my SIR-TS151 (without an OEM remote ) and have located the upgrade file for this unit HERE , the list of advanced codes HERE and this spreadsheet further lists other things for me to try (I gather the discrete on/off don't work with this unit, but I'll certainly try ).

Here's my question. I have a RS 15-1994 with extender 5 and have almost NO upgrade space left, but a bit of KeyMove space. Does anybody know if the 15-1994 has the appropriate Device Code built-in? And what it is? Is VIDACC/1190 or VIDACC/1276 resident in the remote? Is there any other 1994 built-in code that has the right parameters (NEC1 protocol, Main Dev 9, Sub Dev 9, Parm 31) that I can use as a basis for keymoves?

If not the 1994, how about the 2117? (my backup plan)

Follow-up question. Would including this in my Device Combiner upgrade (currently combining 2 devices) necessarily increase the size of the Device Combiner protocol upgrade more than a standalone device upgrade would? {I know, I should just do it and see, but I'm asking for gut feel from you experienced guys }
