RM vs KM RC5 Protocol help

[dtparker]

I am starting to learn RM after using KM for a while, and I am setting up my ARCAM devices. In RM, for RC5 I have to use 2 device codes; one to get the OBCs < 64 and one to get the OBCs >64. I don't see a similar feature in KM - what am I missing?

thanks,
Dave

In KM you add 100 to the device number on the setup sheet in order to specify OBC>=64. Then on the functions sheet, you need to pay some extra attention to that detail.

RM is intended to automate that for you (but I haven't looked at the details lately and it has changed a few times). The setup sheet you've already commented on, and the functions sheet is supposed to know how to manages the full range of OBC numbers based on what the upgrade can support as specified on the setup sheet.

Thanks, think I understand now. I can't get RM to export sucessfully to
IR at the moment, but it does seem to automate the RC5 junk nicely.

Please elaborate.

When I cut and paste out of RM into IR v6 for a device upgrade, IR gets errors processing the paste, the keymoves never show up, and loading he result to a remote leads to a corrupt remote. In particular, I was ring to use the Sony XBR TV KM upgrade in RM.

Please provide a link to the KM upgrade you are converting, or even better, the converted RM file (if you need a place to put it, use the Diagnosis Area). Also, what versions of RM and IR are you using? Are there any error messages?

[gfb107]

Another choice would be to paste into a message (put it inside a code section) what you are pasting from RM into IR.

Must be something else going on - it works just fine into a blank IR
session.

Sorry to get eveyone alarmed...
