Robman, Thank you. The file is running the sling for most commands, but I do not see any buttons, particularly B (original EFC 237, OBC 39, Hex E4) in the list. I looked for OBC over 128 to see if they were repeating but did not see it.

Do I need to edit the OBC to add 128 for function to take effect for the button I need or did you already do that for one of the buttons.?

Thank you,

RM wouldn't import the BIN correctly for me to doublecheck what Rob did, but I did take the protocol and added 128 to obc 39 and found that in my remote, pressing the button I assigned it to, button on my Atlas, and found that a short press of the key, was held for 3.13 seconds.
Remember to provide feedback to let us know how the problem was solved and share your upgrades.

Tip: When creating an upgrade, always include ALL functions from the oem remote, even if you never plan on assigning them to a button. Complete function lists makes an upgrade more helpful to others.

Sorry, I should have said what button has the long B function on it, and the truth is, now I don't remember. My files are all on another computer that I won't have access to again until Monday.

Robman, thanks, no worries, I did try importing the Bin into Sling and reconfiguring, so I probably lost something. I'll work on trying all the buttons from file you sent and go from there.

Vickyg thanks for help trying too.

have a great weekend everyone.

I just realized what I needed to adjust the Command Parameters to LSB, after the raw import. Then I can read the OBCs

After you do the
Advanced ->Import Binary Upgrade

You need to change the OBC Command parameters

Advanced -> Manual Settings
Command Parameters OBC needs to have the LSB set.

Then you can see that TV/VCR is the 128+39.

That's it, it was the TV/VCR button, I remember now.

VickyG, thanks for LSB setting help, that let me remap to available button on sling.

Robman, once I remapped TV/VCR function to an available button, I could see sling holding the IR up for 3 seconds. The application I'm using is on a box in different location, but I think this will totally work!

Should know more on monday, but you guys are awesome!!! Will let you know Monday or tuesday if all went well.

SUCCESS!!!!! Worked perfectly first time.

Robman, great work!!

Vickyg, thanks for all the support getting it going.

My next task will be integrating the solution with customized skin found on other posts, but even without it, I'm up and running.

Thanks again!!
