JP1 Remotes

What tool do you guys use for capture/analyzing IR signals nowadays? Is it still IRDC by Tommy Tyler, or Pronto, or something else?

Well, I think I need to re-learn what extender can do nowadays. I'm an old timer on jp1 group (back to jan. 2001), at that time, if I remember correctly, the extender can't redefinition key move and device upgrade areas in eeprom, resulting very limited number of key move and device upgrade. Since I ...

Thanks y'all for the inputs.

One of reasons I like the RS remote is its rubber surface. I don't own URC 8910/8811/6131 yet, I don't know if their surface is as good as RS remote.

I did a quick search on battery life using extender, however, I didn't find answer . Would you commend on battery life ...

Thanks, Rob.

I didn't know 15-2117 is on sale for $30. Hopefully, it's still on sale tomorrow. Based upon KM, urc-8811 only has 36 remappable buttons, and urc8910/9910 has 40 remappable buttons. It's not enough for my case. Probably, I will add eeprom to urc6131, it seems to have 45 remappable ...

NOTE: continued from the Toshiba CT-90047 upgrade question thread.

No macro support is pretty bad. Probably it doesn't worth doing the mod. So which remote you guys like most? 15-2116? urc-9660? Since I almost always do device upgrade anyway, I'd like to find a remote has a lot of re-mappable ...

Thanks, Rob.

Since it doesn't have learning capability. can it use upper 1k for protocol and upgrade?

Since it uses "MODE" mode to cycle through devices, can any button easily remap to emulate device keys?

Hi

According to KM, CT-90047 has up to 69 useable buttons(in OEM setup), I got a such remote and want turn it into unverisal remote.

Understood that it has only has 128b eeprom, but according to Rob, it can be upgraded to 2k eeprom. I am wondering after the eeprom upgrade, can it accept new ...

Thanks a lot, Jon. It works with Pioneer Plasma code.

Thanks a lot, Rob!

Yes, they are 40kHz. I did a quick check in KM. It has special protocol for 15-1994. But there is no special protocol for 15-2104, I don't know if it has been built into 15-2104 or nobody writes special protocol for it yet. Anyhow, here is a sample code:
AA 55 34 CB 0A F5 C3 3C ...

Happy holidays!

I were helping a friends setting up a system using 15-2104. Every device works with 15-2104 except a Runco Plamsa TV. It uses a weird variation of NEC2. Instead transmitting a repeative NEC code, it repeatly transmits two back to back NEC codes. It looks like:
[NEC lead-in] [NEC ...
