JP1 Remotes

I recently saw what seemed to be a URC2981 remote for sale at B&M in the UK for £7.99. I checked the online manual and thought for an 8 device JP1 learning remote that's not a bad deal so I purchased it.

I first try out the built in remote codes against my devices. It supports them fairly well but ...

Thanks for uploading the URC-8350 files. I've been testing them against my remote. The only problem I've found is that I'm unable to assign the advance and replay buttons.

I got mine from a UK seller but the board looks identical to this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/161831365392

It includes six jumper connectors which will fit JP1. I used the usual connections but with DTR connected to reset instead of RTS and the switch set to 3.3v.

The problem was that this board only has a DTR and doesn't bring out RTS to a pin. The function jp12OriginalConnect() only toggles RTS but otherwise looks like it is using the correct procedure for this board.

I made a couple of minor changes to jp12serial so it toggles DTR as well as RTS ...

Is the source code to jp12serial available anywhere? If so I don't mind messing around with it to see if I can get this chipset to work. I can think of a few possible workarounds if it is a stop bit issue.

I can see why the realterm test might work: if you're just sending a single character then 1 ...

It seems I may be having a similar problem to the OP with a CH340 chip. The board I have uses DTR. If I follow the realterm instructions (using DTR instead of RTS) everything is fine and I get back the expected remote ID.

However neither jp1xtest nor RemoteMaster can see the any remotes ...
