Check the Protocol Help sheet. Since your OBC's are greater than 63, the following applies:
Quote: | However, you will only have access to OBC's 0 - 63. In order to access OBC's in the range 64 - 127, you will need to add 100 to the device code entered. |

Thank you Mark, I think I understand. I think you're saying I need to change device code no, 3, which is 3, to 103. I'll look at the protocol help sheet to see if I can learn something new. I thought that device code # 2 which is 100 was enough. I'll read and experiment. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction and probably telling me exactly what to do.

RC5 doesn't use sub-device codes. I think you are saying that you need to use the complete range of OBCs for 2 device codes, does that sound correct?
Unfortunately, I can only look at KM files during the day, so I can't look at your RM file to see what you might have done wrong. _________________ Rob

Yes Robman, I need to use all OBC's for device 0, and 3 and the RC5\RC5X allowed me to do that...Jack |

I'm not sure that you are using the RC5/RC5X combo protocol correctly. RC-5 and RC-5X are two different protocols.
Read the protocol notes on the RM Setup page carefully. In this combo protocol, you can mix ANY NUMBER of RC-5 device numbers, and there is no weird stuff to be done regarding OBCs </> 64. You just enter the Device number and OBC directly on the Functions page. ADDITIONALLY you can cover up to FOUR RC-5X Device numbers. If all of your decodes are RC-5 (and NONE are RC-5X), then you should not enter ANYTHING on the Setup page for the four possible RC-5X devices.
All of your RC-5 Device codes simply get typed into the "RC5 Device" column on your functions sheet. So if all of your decodes were either RCs device 0 or RC5 device 3, then you should have only 0's and 3's in that column - no 2's and 4's.
Those RC5X devices on the Setup page are invoked by a selection in the RC5X device column on the functions page, which should not apply at all in your circumstance. _________________ Beginners - Read this thread first

Capn Trips, I did what you said and every function is working now. I knew I didn't need RC5X, but I needed all of the RC5 OBC's for device's 0 and 3, that's why I chose that protocol.
I wish I had understood the protocol notes correctly...(I read them several times!). Thanks a million, Jack |
