I have URC JERROLD General Instrument. It looks like Maestro II, but there is no JP1 pins. There is only 3 pads on the PCB marks as JP1.
Is it posible to connect it ?
Also I always get error "Factory service required".
Any solution?
Thanks in advance.

It sounds like your remote is really a re-badged URC-6885 (see pic below). These remotes are not JP1 compatible and furthermore, they have a Y2K bug that renders the remote completely useless once you get the Factory Service message. Sorry but it's trash time for this puppy!

Thanks for information!
At least, I will save time.

Ahh, yes. The old VCRPro. My very first OFA. Still have the pieces kickin' around the basement somewhere...
