JP1 Remotes

Thank you very much Robman! ... I found the protocol builder and i messed with it. I should have mentioned this, but it never registered as important to me ... i replace the IR receiver on the m$ dongle with one that came with a TV card for a computer i built. I didn't really know that receivers had ...

Ok Robman, I tried to increase the repeat rate ... and the m$ dongle was still picky. sometimes it wouldn't take, and sometime it jumped 2 or 3 block, so i've been messing with the first two bytes that fixed the x3ir, thinking something might make a difference. Well ive also searched through some ...

bump

its the same code the rca 0522. The x3ir only turns the xbox on and off ... the dongle allows remote control operations ... so i'm using the same code to control both ... but tweaking the duty cycle didn't seem to affect the dongle reciever it just seems like it picks and chooses when to accept the ...

Robman, What you recommended worked :) I tried each one and the distance increased significantly each time ... 60% works just great!!! Thank you very much!!! .... I know i said it didn't make a big deal if it could damage the remote, but is this likely to damage the remote?

Oh, and there is another ...

If you are using a protocol upgrade, you can tweek the duty cycle to send a stronger signals, but it will drain the batteries quicker. Now, I'm not expecting you to know how to do that, so if you tell me what code or upgrade you are using to work the X3Ir, I can advise you on what to do next ...

Ok, i used the 6131n to teach a learning remote(not jp1) a signal, and the x3ir picked it up all the way across the room (25ft) ... but the 6131n only works up to a few feet. So i might have 2 just get a different jp1 remote, but i'd like 2 get this one to work if possible. Does anyone know how to ...

I just wanted to make a quick post to say that i haven't gotten anything to work just yet, and the I'll be on a mission trip to Nicaragua for the next week, so if anyone posts any ideas, i won't be able to respond for a week or so. Thanks though

OK, x3Ir has codes for signals such as select=FA52D0 up=AA5965 0=CA50F3 play=8A5A57 etc. Now, would changing any of the values affect the frequency but still result in the same RCA code?

It also lets you program it to power on the unit with mod chip enabled and use another button to power it on ...

Thanks for the advice Rob, and i will indeed go that direction if i cant get this to work. And the price range is about the same mid 30 range. So whompus, you might wanna go that direction, ill let you know how it works out.

I have used the programmer to program the codes and i can use the learn ...

OK, I have the 6131n and I'm running the 2k extender, but i don't think that anything to do with my problem. Anyways, I have my remote programmed to my xbox for xbox media center and it works great. Just recently, i bout an X3Ir. All that the X3Ir does is allow me to turn my xbox on and off via the ...

Wow Capn Trips. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That worked great. I didn't know you had 2 download the extender ... i thought it was in the rdf files pack and you just had to select the extender in rm or ir and it would load everything it needed. I was about to give up with all the ...

hey thanks capn trips. That got the error message to go away, but i still cant get it to work right. I've posted a copies of my rm and ir files if you or anyone else can give me some more help. This is for my xbox to use with xbox media center. What i want to do is have for example short0 to execute ...

ok ive been at this for days slashing through fourms and i know that i have to have an extender to get this to work. I have the urc-6131n remote w/ 2k. I finally figured out that you had to add the upgrade device for the lkp function to be accessible under the special protocals function. But i keep ...

Hey, I'm new to these jp1 remotes, and i just got one of these 6131n. I use it for xbmc on my xbox and its just great. It took me a few hours to sort through all the info and get it programmed right, and after i came across this thread i had to attempt the mod. I was succesfull at the hardware ...
