I'd never heard of JP1 remotes until someone posted the info on a satellite stb h/w forum I read. I bought a 6131 with header and 2k EEPROM off of eBay, loaded the info provided from the stb forum and VOILA I eliminated 1 remote off the table. Plus I could store away the original, 'cause they're very expensive to replace.
With confidence in hand I decided to deal with the remote I lost at the end of last summer for my Daewoo window A/C. Unfortunately two all important functions Timer Start/Stop and Sleep mode are only available via the remote.
Searching through the forum archives whilst there was mention of other A/C's nothing on a Daewoo. So I found a good deal on an 8910 learning remote, again from eBay, and proceeded to learn from the missing remote. Oops, you notice the word missing, arrgh, no remote and no way to learn it because the remote was discontinued through regular parts channels. Then last week Costco has another stack of the exact same Daewoo A/C. Soon there is a nice new A/C sitting box sitting in my living room. Reading, and re-reading, and re-reading, and finally re-reading I figure out how to learn the Daewoo remote and program the 6131. It took two tries, 'cause the first time I forgot to add the new code I created to the AUD device button.
So, I know it was long winded, but I REALLY wanted to express my gratitude to the people who figured the JP1 out, created the webpage and forum. Thanks also for the forum users, I read a LOT of old posts before I proceeded. My next project is to add a 6pin header and 2K EEPROM to another 6131.
