Slingbox-PL remote for Philips Tuner RC-5/5x, Code 1116,1296
Posted: Tue Jan 01, 2008 3:11 am
Hello,
I have a Philips made Tape,CD,Tuner deck that I want to hook up to my Slingbox-Classic (PL Remote). I dont know the device type/sub type. A label at the back of the remote says - "RC2517/01", I searched for this type, but nothing helpful emerged.
I have done the following,
1. Used my Marantz RC1400 learning remote to determine which codes the device responds to and it seems to understand Code 1116(Aiwa) and Code 1296(Philips). http://us.marantz.com/DFU_RC1400_Setup_code_Final.pdf
In other posts on this forum, I learnt that the "offset" to use with Marantz codes was 27, which gives me setup codes 1269(1296-27) and 1089(1116-27)
2. Looked it up in devices.xls and it turns out that it's protocol RC-5/5x Combo
3. Fired up Remote Master and tried building JU and PL bin files using setup code 1089, device code 115 and sub device codes 16 20 5 12,using some dummy EFC codes(as I dont know the real ones) and protocol RC-5/5x. I cannot use RM for setup code 1269 since devices.xls doesnt list device type and sub-type(anybody with a 6131, willing to help?)
Now, the problem is that Slingbox refuses to load the bin file generated like this. It fails at the stage where it says - "Updating IR codes..." with Error code 0x93260001
I urge the experts here to let me know what the problem could be. It could be with the device/sub-device code or the efc codes or other nuances that I dont know of.
I have previously generated slingbox bin files for another device using RM and hence know the procedure fairly well, please guide me.
Thank you very much.
