mentioned here before. In that thread, Rob speculated that we could read the button numbers from the PCB, but I know of other instances where the numbers on the PCB don't match the internal ones.
So, to start, a couple of things would be useful.
1) Can you provide a link to the manual?
2) Try to program some macros using the
995 command and then do another raw download. Make sure to keep track of the buttons programmed into the macros, and the button(s) to which the macros are assigned. The idea is to include every button on the remote in a macro. That will allow us to determine the button numbers.
Hi 3FG
I thought it would be more complicated to make the macros.
I recorded macro1 to the GREEN button as a test and it worked:
GREEN btn: btn "i">CH+>CH+>VOL+>VOL+>CH->PWR(off).
That works fine.
Macro2: assigned to YELLOW btn: "GUIA (EPG)">CURSOR DOWN>CURSOR DOWN>CURSOR RIGHT>CURSOR LEFT>CURSOR UP>EXIT>1>2>3>4>5>6>7>PWR (off); although got the two flashes after recording it, didn't work with SAT RCV, nothing happened

.
So before doing anything else I decided to make a raw download and ask you what should I do now, erase macro 2 and try it again or ignore that and proceed to record more macros with different keys? Here is the link for that raw download uploaded to the diagnosis area:

We don't need any more macros; the first one you recorded tells us that the button numbers Rob listed are correct for this remote.
I'm not sure why, but the second macro is not stored in memory, which is consistent with it not working!
Macro2 works now

Thanks for that confirmation 3FG.
I know you don't need it but I don't like mysteries

so I tried again, modified macro 2 and it works know. Either it doesn't like consecutive numeric buttons or the maximum # of allowed buttons is much smaller than 15.
YELOW key MACRO2: btn"i">CURSOR DOWN>CURSOR DOWN>CURSOR RIGHT>CURSOR LEFT>CURSOR UP>EXIT>1
That works on the zon SAT RCVR and I confirmed the performed steps. Made another raw download and here is the link just in case:

Here's a
candidate RDF file, which is based on the similarity of this remote to the 33603360 Dreambox V6 remote.
There are only 4 possible setup code for DTV, all of which are XMP (Dreambox) IR protocol.
There are a large number of apparently shifted button numbers, and I have listed these as Unknownxx in the RDF. I don't know how these are invoked.

Thank you 3FG!
I can't wait to have a go!
I had some annoying last days, my car broke down and its at the shop: electronic intermitent problems, the worst thing to happen to a car these days. Also my laptop broke down as well where I have all the Jp1 stuff, I'm typing this on my ipad. Hope to have both the car and the laptop fixed in a few days (and a lighter walet

)
Thanks again for your help.
Rgds.
