Arduino JP1 interface

Has anyone got plans to incorporate Arduino interface support for a JP1 (I2C) remote in IR Remote Control Prgorammer?

What does this mean?

I think what is being asked is if anyone is interested in writing code for Arduino platform that would interface to a JP1 eeprom remote, to take the place of a proper JP1 cable.

It could be done. Probably the easiest way to do that would be to make the Arduino emulate a JP1.x interface (simple UART) plus translate JP1.x to JP1 much like the JP1 to JP1.x adapter that already exists. That way, none of the JP1 software tools would have to change. They'd talk to the Arduino as if they were talking to a JP1.x remote and the Arduino would translate to/from JP1 i2c read/write to the remote.

A.A.

Then this is really a question for an Arduino developer. If there is a forum where Arduino developers hang out, you should post the question there and have them come her for help with the JP1 specs, etc.

The original code has been already ported to Arduino, look here. To see the attached code at the end of this posting, you have to be logged in at the Arduino Forum. (direct link to source)

If anyone here is a member of the Arduino forum, could you grab a copy of that file and load it here too please, for safe keeping.

It can now also be found here in the file area.

I just tried this on my old 6131 and it seemed to work great -- all I did was to download the old remote using RMIR.

I was a little uncertain as to how to answer the question about which extender I had (from 2005), so I saved it a couple of different ways.

I do remember adding the 2K chip and also the remote says: URC-6131B00

thank you all!

Hi just waking up this thread.Has anyone got this to work in win10.Programed a nano and using rmir selects the right interface can check the correct port but when using replies no remote found. If I use ir and check interface it reports remote interface checks ok but then does not find remote .Driver status reports Serial/Parallel error Problem with NT port driver.Start Driver Unable to start service. This driver has been blocked from loading.Please make sure you have Admin rights .
Then Delcom USB Error
Uable to find Delcom device Driver . Acording to disk manager computer is using USB-Serial CH340 drivers.
Any help is welcome .Thanks in advance.Regards Malcolm
