JP1 Remotes

Hello to everyone. Very Happy

Great work and info!

Finally got this to work. Took me a day to figure out just the basics. I have a RS 15-2117 w/JP1 cable. Uploaded through KM all the original remote buttons for my Vizio LCD 15 without using any memory...I hope.

Questions:

1) If in IR with the current Download and it says, "Learned" 1021 free does this mean that no Learned keys are present in the remote (see above)?

2) If so, then this is the efficient way to do things as I have Uploaded the Vizio reconfigurations to the remote!

3) I have a Sony Micro HI-FI Component System CMT-GPX6 that I wish to program through KM. I have searched and have not found the 4 digit code. Question is that when I "IR Learn" all the original remote buttons into the RS remote then download to IR, on the "Learned Signals" tab there are about 4 different "Protocols, Device and Sub-Device" i.e. Sony 12, Sony 16, Sony 20, each w/different "Devices and Sub-Devices" representing all the different buttons. How do I proceed? With the Vizio all the buttons were the same (NEC1 w/ Device 0) so it was easy.
Unless, it is just a matter of doing in KM all seperate spreedsheets for each button with different "Protocol, Device and Sub-Device" then Uploading each to the remote. Will be trying that now to see if that is what it entails.

Thanks,
Robert

Before I post or upload the EEPROM or anything else I will first try/experiment to get it to work.

Thanks again,
Robert

I think it would be best if you load the EEPROM image here in the Diagnosis Area for one of us to look at, then we can best advise you how to proceed (and we can also clear up if that Sony16 reference was a typo).

Then, please read the thread that details how to post links to Yahoo files, and then post a link to the file once you have loaded it.

Will do as you suggest as I cannot get all the buttons to work. Gave it a shot at least Laughing

Will do it tomorrow morning.

Will also load the text file for the Vizio L13 13" LCD TV (VINC) so others can use it...all the buttons seem to work.

Thanks,
Robert

Redid the original to the RS remote and only Sony 12 and 20 now appears. So everything appears correct right? If this is so, when I select "Sony Combo 12/20" in KM "Sony 20 Main Dev" and "Sony 20 Sub-Dev" appears. What do I input into both these Categories?

From IR "Learned Signals":

Protocol=Sony 12 Device=16 Sub-Device=None for all keys associated.

Protocol=Sony 20 Device=26 Sub-Device=57

If the above is not correct then I will have to load the EEPROM for the experts to analyze.

Thanks,
Robert

The Sony20 Main Dev is the "Device" from the decode (26). The Sony20 Sub-Dev is the "Sub-Device" from the decode (57).

There are good instructions for both the Sony 12/15/20 combo and the Sony 12/20 combo at the bottom of the keymap-master-protocols.txt file included with KM. Read that. It should answer the rest of what you need to know to build the upgrade.

Thanks, Mark that did it. Now all the buttons work! Laughing

Sorry, johnsfine. Sad

Should have done that before proceeding/posting. I will read it.

This remote w/JP1 and everyone's contibutions is just what I desire!

Mahalo to everyone for the help and courtesy,
Robert

Why don't you know compare you list with the codes shown here:
http://www.hifi-remote.com/sony/Sony_cdcombo.htm

If you have found any codes that are not included in that list, I'm sure that Rob H (the guy who maintains that list) would like to know about them.

If you're in an experimental mood, you might want to give some of the other codes listed there a try as there's a good chance that at least some of them will work with your device. Even if the additional functions that you discover are not useful to you, it would be great if you could include them in your KM file so that the next person has the chance of using them.

Also, when creating the upgrade(s) that you will use, it might be a good idea to split this into several upgrades, rather than trying to cram everything into one upgrade. Even though it's one physical device, you should really think of it as several virtual devices (eg, CD player, tape player, tuner, etc). That way you can use PLAY (for example) to work the "CD player" when the remote's in CD mode, and to work the "tape player" when the remote's in TAPE mode.

You might also want to take a look at the following KM file to see if it's similar to what you need: Sony-MHC-MG310AV-SonyCombo.txt

Already boookmarded that site awhile ago and have compared the codes. Will double check to see if I have any additional codes.

All the buttons on the oriiginal remote work in the RS remote so do not need any of his codes.

Then I did not understand. I will do as you suggest.

Going golfing so will do that later. But, I WILL!!
