JP1 Remotes

I am desperately looking for the code for a Teac T.V. for the star trek phaser remote control, it is the next generation one, I can email a pic
if that helps???
I have the manual ,but it does not list the teac t.v.
The code is a 3 digit one ...this remote only takes 3 digit codes.
have searched every where ....even Teac in oz don't know ..or just won't give me the code.
Any assistance greatly appreciated!!!!!

Hello Mate!

Throw another Shrimp on the Bar-Be and toss me a cold Foster's!

(Do Aussies really drink that foul brew BTW? I have been told it tastes like Kangaroo urine. )

I think I speak for all of us here at JP1 in wishing you happy holidays. Sadly, I do not think we can help you, unless your star trek phaser remote control grows a set of JP1 pins.

We deal with remotes we can communicate with via a JP1 connector inside the battery compartment of a majority of the remotes made by UEI, usually either One-For-All brand or Radio Shack brand. The fact that your remote takes only a three digit setup code I believe pretty much eliminates the possibility that it was made by UEI, which means that even though we would love to help you, we probably don't know a thing about your remote control.

Live Long, and Prosper.

Steve , thanks for the info....bummer!!!

as for fosters ...I gotta say I agree !!!!

Have you given any thought to switching to a JP1 remote? If so, leave a note here. Being that you live in Australia (my niece and nephew are planning to move to the east coast of Australia in a few years) I would suggest that you buy a OFA 8811 from "The Robman" for $25 (see the market place on this forum). It has all the features: learning, macros, backlight, JP1, and much more, even several extenders already written for it that will allow the remote to do things it was never meant to do. Or, if you have Wal-Mart stores in Australia, you can buy a OFA 8810w for less than $20. (all prices are in US dollars)

Is is possible to refit the star trek phaser with the components???
as I like the phaser ...I have 8 of these I want to market here in "oz" but they obviously need the upgrade as they are older say 1994??
any ideas???
I am totally new at this.

Thanks

Nope. it likely doesn;'t use any of the ueic MCU's, and retrofitting an eeprom would be a nightmare.

With a TON of work, maybe a year's worth of PCB development you *might* be able to strip the guts, and replace the whole innards, maybe just using the original buttons. For the time, energy, and cost for just being able to dump 8 remotes, I wouldn't think anyone would want to pay $5000.00 for one.

LOL ....thanks

Actually, the older UEI remotes did use a 3-digit setup code. But I think you are correct in this case that this is not a UEI remote, or at the very least that it is not a JP1 remote.
