Posted: Sun Jun 27, 2004 9:08 am Post subject: Extender /Advanced codes question? |
|
|
Hi, I’m new the hobby. I listed my setup below.
8811 Remote
Extender 3 installed
Panasonic TV code 0250
Now my problem, I could not find the advanced code for the “Aspect” button in the printed document of codes for the TV_0250. So I did a learn function and found this info:{OBC=222}{Hex= $84} {EFC=238}. The function worked fine on the remote. I then installed the Extender and lost the functionality of the learn feature as the doc states. So I added the info above to the keymoves and it does not work? Any ideas??
Thanks
Mike |

With that device it's important to check the subdevice value in the decode of the learned signals. A few of the commands have a different subdevice than most of the commands.
Those few cannot be generated using TV/0250.
One way to generate them is to make and install a device upgrade with the right protocol, device and subdevice, but with no functions assigned to buttons, then use that setup code as a source for KeyMoves. |

Thanks for the fast reply! Could you point me in the direction for some type of doc. I can read on how to do this?? I took a look and the device = 128 and the sub = 4
Thanks

TV/0250 is Panasonic:128.0, so you'll need an empty (no buttons defined) upgrade for Panasonic:128.4. To create it (using KM or RM), follow these steps:
- Remote = 881x
- Device Type = TV
- Setup Code = 1250
- Protocol Name = Panasonic
- Main Device = 128
- Sub Device = 4
- Copy the resulting Device Upgrade Code and paste it into IR as a new Device.
- Create a key move in IR (Key Moves tab):
- Bound Device = TV
- Bound Key = an unused button of your choosing
- Device Type = TV
- Setup Code = 1250
- EFC = 238
- Upload to the remote.
- Test the key move

The easiest way is to do a "no button" upgrade:
Upgrade Code 0 = 04 E2 (TV/1250)
C9 00 01 DE BF FB FE DF
End
Add that device in IR. Don't assign it to any device button. Then Key Move TV/1250 EFC 238 to the button of your choice on your TV device.
BTW, 128.4 also has discrete component inputs 1 and 2 for some Panasonic models of HDTV's. Here is the list that I know of:
OBC EFC
124 004 Discrete Component 1 Input Select
125 008 Discrete Component 2 Input Select
201 049 Discrete Aspect - Zoom
209 113 Discrete Aspect - Full
222 238 Aspect _________________ -Jon |
