Protocol ASYNC5.444

[uncle]

I have used my 8060 to learn new codes and the Protocol shows a SONY 20 protocol and a ASYNC.444. I want to put this information into KM. Am I correct in assuming that the ASYNC.444 is an error and all I should need is the information in the SONY 20 protocol.

I am also seeing this message on most of the keys

Part of this signal is sent after the button is released. While this could be correct, it may indicate that the signal was not learned optimally. It is recommended that you attempt to re-learn the signal at least once, being sure not to release the button until the remote's LED flashes twice.

I have re-learnt the keys but still get the same message. I also have the following info in the SET ONCE WHEN KEY IS PRESSED(this type of info is in this field for most of the keys)

+2388 -604 +1194 -600 +1194 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +1194 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +1194 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -15960 +2388 -604 +1194 -600 +1194 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +1194 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +1194 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -15960 +2388 -604 +1194 -600 +1194 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600 +596 -600

Do I also have to input this info into KM if so were abouts as the tutorial just explains how the inputs are taken from the Protocol.

I also have a button learnt that has no protocol just a sent once when button is pressed. message with numerical numbers again


I have gone through the learn procedure several times and it is always the same buttons that show the messages.

My last question.

The above is all related to a Sony home cinema with a AMP and DVD built in. I have learnt all the buttons needed and I have around 8 with protocol SONY 15 codes for the AMP and 18 SONY 20 codes for the DVD. The KM only lets you combine 4 SONY 20 protocols with SONY 15's using SONY COMBO 12/15/20. Does this mean I will need to have two seperate devices for the Home Cinema. Ie amp and DVD player or can I get a new protocol that will include more SONY 20's with SONY 15 codes

I have also learnt keys from a panasonic DVD recorder and all these keys are correct and just have a protocol associated to them and no other messages so I feel I am doing it correct as I have no issues with the Panasonic.

Sorry for all the question but the PANASONIC upgrade went without a hitch but the Sony has confused me a little to say the least.

The remote is working with the learned keys but I want to load them using KM and IR.EXE as this will free the memory

Big thanks to everyone that has looked in and has taken the time to read down to this last sentence.

Right.

Part of this signal is sent after the button is released. While this could be correct, it may indicate that the signal was not learned optimally. It is recommended that you attempt to re-learn the signal at least once, being sure not to release the button until the remote's LED flashes twice.

Usually you can ignore that message. If you get a plausible decode always start by trying that plausible decode and ignoring the rest. If that command doesn't work, you can always go back to the learned signals (post eeprom image in the diagnosis folder) and ask for expert help.

I also have a button learnt that has no protocol just a sent once when button is pressed. message with numerical numbers again

It wasn't clear which buttons you said you tried relearning. If you didn't try relearning that one, do so. If you have already then post that eeprom image in the diagnosis folder.

I have around 8 with protocol SONY 15 codes for the AMP and 18 SONY 20 codes for the DVD. The KM only lets you combine 4 SONY 20 protocols with SONY 15's using SONY COMBO 12/15/20.

You can have only 4 different Sony 20 subdevices in that upgrade, but you can have any number of Sony20 commands using any number of Sony20 device numbers. When you say "18 Sony 20 codes" I assume you mean 18 different commands, most of them should share the same device and subdevice numbers.

Thanks Johnsfine. That info should help me along the way. Damned SONY devices.

There are a number of Sony "Home Theater in the Box" (HTIB) device upgrades in the files that have DVD/Receiver combinations. I think you will find that most use the same commands. Also, look here for anything Sony. The commands are OBC's by device numbers.
