Create device from learned keystrokes

Post by jchiso »

Is there a document that shows how to create a device from a set of learned IR commands? I can capture the codes with a Pronto (Marantz) remote and decode using the DecodeCCF utility.

Our documentation covers some of the basic protocols, but some of the other executors can be a bit of a problem.

We have two software programs that can be used. RemoteMaster(RM) a java based app, or KeymapMaster a MS Excel spreadsheet.

You'll probably be using RM to create an upgrade. It is easier to use than KM
You can create an upgrade to use with RMIR or IR.


These wiki links might help


RemoteMaster wiki entries
JP1 just how easy is it

Using Remote Master to create an upgrade to use with IR

KM wiki entries
JP1 just how easy is it, KM version

Using KM to create a device upgrade

Sometimes they are pretty easy, but sometimes the executors are a bit complicated, and the data entry becomes more difficult to figure out

Three major hints though.

1) If nothing is specified, don't make any entry in a field! A zero is not a blank!!!
2) Check the MISC column for additional information on the learns.
3) If you have questions ask.

Thanks for the links. I opted for the "learning remote" route. I guess that's a good incentive to keep an extra remote around.
