JP1 Remotes

BTW, assuming it does what you need, you should be able to use that protocol and device upgrade for all the regular commands as well -- so you can get it all into one device upgrade. The new protocol is very close to the built in protocol, but that one is apparently a little too long.

Assuming it all works, you might post the "TV_0150 upgrade" probably name it TV_1150 with the new protocol and all the discretes along with an explanation since I will probably forget all the details in a month.

Glad we made some progress on this!

Hi, I'm a complete noob to this jp1 stuff. in fact this is my first post. I just built my jp1 cable last night and downloaded the "Mitsubishi WS-55809 TV.txt" KM file and ul'ed to my new 8811. I found this exact same problem with the arrows double jumping and low and behold stumbled onto this thread.

I'm glad to hear that you already seem to have fixed the problem before I even knew there was one! I found a file "NetCommand.zip" on the jp1 groups which had arrows that worked great. Although I haven't figured out how to combine them with the TV device. But I'm sure I'll figure that out eventually.

Anyway, I guess I just want to say your efforts are appreciated.

I think I'm getting the hang of this. I've discovered discrete codes for the inputs not listed in the "Mitsubishi WS-55809 TV.txt" KM file and have added them to a new file for my 55859. These include input-5, comp-2, and VGA. I also added an A/V reset I came across in avsforum but I'm scared to actually try it. I was thinking of adding your arrow keys to the list but because they are a different protocol I'm not sure how to put them in my new KM file.

funct= EFC
Comp2= 201
Input 5= 233
VGA= 153
A/V Reset= 059

Here is a list of Mitsubishi TV/RPTV commands from my files. Not every command works on all models. You should be able to use any of these in the last device upgrade file that I posted in the diagnostics area (Mitsubishi NetCommand Frame 53.6 mS.zip).

The device upgrade in the zip file, Mitsubishi NetCommand Frame 53.6 mS-KM.txt, already has the upgraded protocol that will make the arrows work correctly. That Device/Protocol upgrade should work for any of these commands since it corrects the built in protocol to a shorter frame length. What this means is that you don't need to create seperate device upgrades. You will need to copy and paste both the Device AND Protocol upgrade into IR.

The Mitsubishi NetCommand Frame 53.6 mS-PB.txt is FYI and you don't need to do anything with it since it is used with Protocol Builder and I have already put it in the right place in the device upgrade.

FYI, the device upgrade is set up to use OBC (not EFC) but I have included both in the list below so you have a cross reference.

Since I don't have any Mitsubishi gear I can't tell you if any of these commands will get you in a service mode or do something like erase your settings. I have not heard of any problems. Ususally people will note any problem commands when they post them.

After testing for a week or so, I am very confidient that this new protocol works correctly for my Mits RPTV.

So, to share this success with others, I just uploaded the file:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/jp1/files/3.%20Device%20Codes/TV/Mitsubishi_WS-65869_Netcommand.zip

This zip archive contains a complete KM device upgrade, including all the discrete functions, and Jon's Protocol Builder file with the new protocol.

Thanks again, Jon, for your help.

Thanks so much for working through the timing issues.

I had encountered the same problem when setting up a friend's Mitsubishi
with a 15-2117. I figured it was a timing issue but only had a day to get
the setup working and had too many devices to worry about at that time.

Now I can go back and fix the arrow keys.

The good news is after setting up all the macros, LKPs, and ToadTogs my
friend didn't find the need to use the arrow keys anymore, except in very
rare instances.

It seems you are actually using Net Command for what is was intended
to do (control your whole home theatre setup) where all my friend wanted
was to press 1 button and have all the proper components turned on or
off.

i'm not using netcommand or anything like that...

thx!
