JP1 Remotes

Great minds think alike! I was just thinking that as I turned on my computer this morning. And sure enough, it works like a charm. Thanks Rob!

Hm. I was going to show you my own picture -- how it rejects values out of the range $00 - $FF -- AND to show how I don't have the "Key" radio button next to the EFC/Hex Cmd input box. I figured I had a different software release (which I apparently do) and that was why it wouldn't work for me. But ...

Forget about the regular EFCs as they don't apply here. If you want to do the keymoves using IR you will need to enter both bytes of hex data (which IR will let you do, what makes you think it won't).
I tried. It wouldn't let me. In hex mode it insisted on a value between $00 - $FF. In EFC mode it ...

OK, I loaded the protocol, and now the Lutron upgrade works to control the lights.

But the keymove into the DVD mode still doesn't work. I think I'm back to "why does the Lutron mode have such weird codes and how do I Keymove them?"

In RM, the upgrade says Lutron uses sensible EFC values between ...

Gack!! You nailed it, Rob. I totally missed the Lutron protocol.

OK, here you go: http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload ... le_id=4410

I know the DVD CH+ / CH- buttons worked for the Lutron.

I'll do that. But in the meantime it occurs to me that I'm making this way too complicated.

I only plan to use 2 Lutron buttons. I'm only going to use them in 2 modes (DVD and SAT).

Why load a Lutron upgrade at all?? I should just learn those buttons, and upload them into my working IR file.

That ...

The Key Move tab wants 2-digit codes. Can you be more specific? Where does it want 2-digit codes?
Sorry -- the EFC/Hex Code input box rejects 4-digit Hex Cmd values, saying it's not in the range $00 - $FF. In EFC mode it accepts the 5-digit values shown in the EFC column of the Devices tab, but ...

OK, that's simple enough.

For some reason I had to learn the Lutron codes from my remote. The upgrade I downloaded isn't working, even in its native mode. I learned a few codes from the Lutron remote, and compared them to the upgrade. The upgrade had EFCs in the 30-238 range, but the EFCs in the ...

This has to be a common question, but I can't find any posts about it...

I want to include keycodes from device X into the device Y mode. So e.g. I have a Lutron IR light control. I'd like to include some of the Lutron codes in my DVD and sat modes. I could program a macro that switches to the ...

No repeater, eh? Bummer. :( Would Chris know about that? Presumably he knows what freq the signals were, and he probably understands the repeater's limitations better than we do. I would really like to get power working, with the repeater, so I can power up/down the projector with my "everything on ...

Success!! I just managed to control the projector with the protocol A upgrade. Haven't tried B yet but I assume it will work equally well.

A few little problems or oddities:

* The 9910's IR repeater doesn't seem to work at all for this device. If I cover up the 9910's IR emitter, nothing happens ...

Cool! Thanks Rob! I've got the projector torn apart right now, but I should have it back together this week and I'll give it a try then.

You have a point there. I'll see if I can get it sent out before I leave. Hopefully they can get what they need & get it back to me in 2 weeks. I can't even turn the projector on without the remote. It doesn't have a control panel or built-in power switch.

Hmm, interesting idea! So maybe THEY could decipher it and get us a working upgrade? (Being the cheapskate I am -- they wouldn't charge for this service, would they? If they did, it would probably be better to give in and get myself a Harmony.)

Too bad I can't get the 9910 working, so I wouldn't ...
