JP1 Remotes

Thank you both for pointing me in the right direction. The instructions did the trick! I just successfully downloaded the data from my remote, and now I can get back to work!

Sorry I didn't find the documentation first. I was working from the JP1 for Beginners document, which is a little old, and I ...

Wow, literally seconds after posting my request, I took another look at the device manager and found in the "Other Devices" section an entry labelled something like "FRxxx USB UART" (sorry, I can't remember the exact name). I tried adding the driver to that. Success!

Now when I go into IR.exe and ...

Hi all,

I'm a new returnee to the world of JP1. (Aside: I just looked and found some old posts I made six years ago!) My old URC6131n's have served me for years, but I have some new equipment now and wanted to update them.

As my new computer doesn't have a parallel port, I picked up one of Tommy ...

...why not just download the upgrade files for each of your devices and map the buttons exactly how you want them. That way you won't waste any of your precious keymove / macro memory correcting the built in codes.

And again the "aha!" light goes on. I hadn't really paid attention to the memory ...

OK, I think I see the theory. I don't think I'll mess with it now, but it's cool to know just how flexible these things are.

I do have another question though. Is there a way to see what functions are mapped to each key in the default codes? For some of my devices, the standard codes are almost ...

By the way ... you can probably re-wire one of those two buttons to be a regular button.

Really? That would be quite interesting. I don't think the soldering will be a problem -- I have a friend with a full-on surface-mount system (he does electronic design for a living). I don't really need the ...

Thanks for the quick responses! You guys are great.

Keep in mind that the URC-6131nw internally is the same remote as the older URC-6131, and on that remote the CC and AUDIO functions are combined onto the same button.

You know, it's funny. I described my problem to a friend of mine, and he said ...

Greetings!

I'm not a complete n00b, having successfully programmed my URC-8811 some time ago, but I am new to Remote Master, and I'm having a problem.

I just got a new URC-6131nw, and successfully installed the chip and JP1 header. I can communicate with IR.exe just fine, so now I'm trying to redo ...
