I'm pretty much a newbie here, so sure others will provide more info.

Device: Pioneer HTS-GS1

While I don't have that exact pioneer model, pioneer has been pretty good at retaining ir compatibility between different amps.

Copla questions...

What are your goals... i.e. do you just want to power/volume/inputselect? (its remote looks pretty limited)

How are you connecting... optical, digitial cable, wmp digital?

I have an Xbox and Dish DVR hooked up via optical. A DVD Player connected via coax and a VCR connected via Audio In..

Looking for a way to switch the inputs and control the volume without getitng up from the couch

The unit also has an AM/FM radio..I never use these ..

Thanks for your help

I would start using a current urc remote and trying the built in default commands for the different pioneers... if you buy an upgradable oneforall remote, their telephone tech support has been pretty good at getting the closest device or telephone upgrading the remote for a newer pioneer code...

more importantly, they should be able to tell you what buttons are used for the input selections.

If you elect to go with the protocol upgrades here, would start with;

The former is a keymapmaster and the latter an remotemaster file...

I went to CC and they had this unit on display. Was able to capture only the power code from their device to a remote

03 60 36 00 C8 04 01 13 31 C3 10 B3 08 53 01 13
03 16 01 13 01 05 C4 13 22 33 23 22 33 22 32 32
33 33 23 23 22 22 32 30 12 22 23 23 23 33 32 32
33 32 22 23 22 23 33 32 30

I copied this from IR.exe under the Power Learned option for the device. It shows 2 protocols

Power HEX 383C EFC 03065
Does this make sense for a Pioneer device ? How do I go about making the other codes ?

Thanks

You quoted that info from IR.exe in a particularly inconvenient form. I examined it anyway (usually I would instead ask that you upload the .ir file to the diagnosis area so we can see the learned signal ourselves rather than figure it out from inconvenient quotes).

The relevent info is that it is a two part Pioneer signal:
First part: device 166, OBC 161
Second part: device 175, OBC 188

I haven't checked the links Beverly gave you to see if they are for a similar code set.

I did check my library of CCF files and found the Pioneer XV-HTD510, in which many functions are two part Pioneer signals with the first part identical to the one you got and the second part same device (175) you got, with varying OBC. The rest of the functions are one part Pioneer signals, with device 166 and varying OBCs.

At least one of the Pioneer choices in KM or RM will let you build an upgrade for that set of signals.

If you don't find a closer match in some JP1 file, the table of OBC to function (produced by DecodeCCF) from that CCF file I mentioned, is likely to be a good starting point for you.

Power HEX 383C EFC 03065

That's the "standard" pioneer "power toggle"... see the prior response as I think that is your best path.

Try the built in pioneer codes ...then, if you need more than what they provide, load one of the two protocols posted above, we will have enough to help you continue.

The OneforAll site has a complete listing of built in codes if you don't have a manual for your device.

Can someone tell me where that 383C and 03065 come from?

I was ignoring those, since I didn't understand them. I pasted the learned hex back into IR.exe and looked at the decode, which I described earlier.

What makes that the "standard" pionner power toggle? I see a lot of pioneer devices in which 175:188 is the second half of a two part power toggle command, but none of those have 166:161 as the first part, and all together I doubt they account for half the Pioneer devices for which there are power toggle commands in CCF files.

I never really learned how the various Pioneer combo executors work. But since this seems to require device 166, it should at least take a setup code including device 166.

In devices.xls the only code in a 9960 that looks even possible for device 166 is audio/1384. I tested audio/1384 with my 8820. It is a mix of one-part signals with device 166 and two part signals with the first part 166:161 and the second various OBCs of device 175. However, its power toggle is simply 166:28, not the two part signal discussed in this thread.

So some signals of audio/1384 may work. But its power toggle does not match the captured one.

Do you mean the upgrades (not "protocols") listed above? Neither of those are close, given the device 166 info.
