Problems with URC-9960B01 4k Kameleon

Post by redmick »

Hi All
Its been a while since i have played with all this stuff so i am vary very rusty.
I have a kameleon URC9964B00 which i would like to add a few functions too.
Due to an operating sytem change and poor back up of files on my part i lost all my files.
I have downloaded all the files (or i think i have) for the modification of my remote.i.e remote master keymap master and IR
I have connected my remote and get the following
Bad checksum at adress $0000 expected $9B $64 but found $4b $41
Also not sure but cannot seem to find the correct RDF for my unit.
The first thing i want to do is download the file off my remote before i start changing things.
Can someone point me where to start again.
Cheers

I think you can use the RDF for the 9960 B01

I think your remote has a 4k EEPROM chip installed, so make sure that you have the "Force >= 4k" option selected in IR when you download.

If it still doesn't pick the right RDF (assuming you have downloaded and un-zipped the master RDF package), go to Advanced and select "Enable Raw Download" then use the Raw Download button to get your IR image. Then post it here and link to it.

good reply thats very similar to what i want to do.
Due to a pc upgrade i lost my rmdu files (silly me) for all the work i previously did on my three different remotes
And now i want to mod one device to add some functions i will give these directions a go and see how i progress :-)

Well i followed the directions and am getting issuses
When i try to import raw data from IR into Rm i get "unable to import device ugrade"
So i decided to try the RMIR option when i try the download from remote option for my kameleon i get "No RDF matches signature" i have a 9964 which i beleive uses the 9960B01 RDF any ideas as to what might be my issues?

I don't recall if RMIR knows that your Kameleon has a 4k EEPROM and needs to be downloaded in a different way than 2k remotes. So, try downloading from the remote using IR, save the file, then open it using RMIR.

Upload the IR file to the Diagnosis Area then post a link to it here.

Interesting, it addition to not being able open that IR file, it seems that the RMIR isn't able to New > Remote Image > URC-9960 B01 One For All Kameleon (KASAKAS0). There is response, so I believe it might be related.

RMIR preview 6 has a problem with the RDF. The [FixedData] section is empty. You might be able to open this file if you delete the [FixedData] section in the RDF.
Remember to provide feedback to let us know how the problem was solved and share your upgrades.

Tip: When creating an upgrade, always include ALL functions from the oem remote, even if you never plan on assigning them to a button. Complete function lists makes an upgrade more helpful to others.
