Sorry about that, I just downloaded that zip file, and its doesn't have the txt file from 8/29, so somewhere along the line I goofed. Please let me know if this works.

Vicky,

Okay, some solid progress to report.

Of the 29 functions in the original ccf file, 19 of them definitely work, 1 definitely doesn't work and the other 9 I cannot test as they are dependent on other functionality that I can't yet access.

Which brings me to another question. The comment listed with the ccf file posted at Remote Central says that the file is the "complete Epson remote" but I do not believe that to be the case. According to the Epson manual the original remote has a doughnut style ring for up/down left/right navigation but these functions are not in the ccf. These missing functions are vitally important as without them I can't navigate to various places to successfully configure the projector.

Another interesting thing of less importance about the ccf was that it included button functions designated 1 to 9 but from reading the Epson manual these appear to be shifted functions on the original remote that perform other functions in the unshifted state which are the functions we have in the ccf file. I guess what I am trying to say is the functions designated 1 to 9 in the ccf are not functions 1 to 9 at all. The manual seems to indicate that there are other functions that also were not in the ccf either but these don't appear to be necessary to at least get the projector configured successfully.

So the question is: Is it possible to derive unknown function codes from the information we already have or am I foobarred? And if it is possible, how do I go about it?

Thankyou for the great work.

John I updated the file again. I renamed the functions 1- 9 and marked down the untested ones, and then I rechecked all the binary against the hex on the untested ones, so *hopefully* I've got them right this time!

Vicky,
I had a go at making your PB executor smaller, take a look at this to see how I did it, and if you have a chance, can you test it to see if it works.

Thanks,
Rob

Can't try it until I go out and get new AA batteries, lol.

I like the lookup, a lot more efficient than the bit test. However it looks like this is going to send out 32 pairs and our signal is 26 pairs. The 6bit fixed, 8 bit command, 6 bit command, 6 bit fixed

I haven't looked yet, I got busy with the Beo thing, but I will try to look tomorrow.

Did you get a chance to test my executor, I'm curious to know if it works.

I haven't been to the store yet for batteries. Shopping is tomorrow and I'll get batteries, but I've read the code enough to believe it will work. I haven't checked the Hex for the functions yet, but I assume you would be better at that then I am. That binary to hex conversion is really, really hard for me to do. Not that it is difficult to do, but its difficult to remember what I'm doing.

I think that the Emp710 thing needs to be done too, because that upgrade that 'doesn't work' has been download 130 times. So apparently lots of people have been looking for it. It might even work with this 835.
