I'm also willing to try any other fireplace remote codes from other manifacturers... since these China made devices might have been sold under other names using the same control circuits.

Mario, you have a learning remote and a cable, learn the signals and post your IR or RMIR file in the diagnosis section and post a link in this thread. Then we can see if these are similar to the other electric fireplace. Then we can create an upgrade for one or both fireplaces.

The IRP is
{37.4k,425,msb}<1,-3|3,-1>(A:12,16)+
Of course we don't know how the engineers intended this to be divided, but A can be partitioned to give D:4, F:8 which would give us maximum flexibility.
{37.4k,425,msb}<1,-3|3,-1>(D:4,F:8,16)+

If divided this way, we have D=13, and the OBCs are

Test rmdu for Muskoka MFB28-2

This was tested using an Atlas 1056B01, and seems to give the correct signals. Built using RMIR protocol feature.

Wow!

I am really impressed! So quick to get an answer here, and it simply works!
All I needed to complete it is reassign them where I want.

Thanks!

Good! Thanks, Earl (eferz). I've added the HCS08 executor and moved the upgrade file to Device Upgrades\Misc.
