Atlas JP1.2 - No Response From Devices

bcardellini · Post by **bcardellini** » Sun Nov 18, 2007 2:00 pm

I'm trying to install upgrades on an Atlas 5 PVR 10251025 w/ KM & RM for my:
- Onkyo 702 Receiver
- Panasonic PZ700U TV
- XBox360
- ScientificAtlanta 8300HD

The cable box (KM) and TV (RM) are working fine. The receiver (KM) and XBox (RM) do not respond to the remote at all. I'm not getting any kind of error codes and the device buttons are blinking as I'd expect them to.

My files here:
http://hifi-remote.com/forums/dload.php ... le_id=5168

I'm using a home made JP1.2 cable. Interface check in IR is successful.
KM9.10, IR7.03, RM1.82 Sticker in remote says 1055WC0-XXX-0001-001

I get the same results with VickieG's 1A251A25 extender IR file as I do with a download after factory reset, so I think the problem must be with my upgrades. Am I missing a protocol or something?

For the onkyo upgrade did you remember to load the protocol? It won't work without it and might produce some wierd extender results.

Yeah, for the Onkyo I added that 011A NEC 2DEV Combo protocol. I copied it from the protocol box on the KM setup sheet, and added it under the IR protocol tab.

That was the only upgrade I added a protocol for though, because none of the others said I need to.

I did a quick glance at your files and they all appear to be correct. Do you have an SECOND learning JP1 remote? You could learn what is being sent from the Atlas to see if it is the same as it SHOULD be.

The only things I can imagine at this point is something preventing the IR signals from getting to those 2 particular components. Weak batteries? obstructed signal path? Too much off-angle for those devices?

I have two of these Atlas5 Days. These aren't learning remotes though, right?

The batteries are fairly new, and have only seen limited use while testing. I'm sure that line-of-sight, angle, etc. are not a problem because I'm about 3 feet away right in front of the XBox and receiver.

I can't remember what happened when I tried on the other remote, I seem to rember it giving scrambled keys. I'll try a factory reset and load it up tonight.

I want to say I had trouble getting the NEC 2dev combo working on my Atlas remote with this sig. I ended up switching nec4dev combo protocol that was built into the remote.

There is a bug in the HCS08 version of the 011A protocol. Try this one

Code: Select all

Upgrade Protocol 0 = 01 1A (HCS08) NEC 2DEV Combo
 20 15 22 47 42 CF 44 08 08 01 17 01 1A 01 17 03 
 4D D2 F0 11 93 08 CA AE 02 BF A9 B6 65 42 58 8C 
 9E CE 60 0A 65 03 8B 88 53 35 60 B6 64 B7 62 43 
 B7 63 07 65 05 CD FF 8F 25 08 08 65 0A 00 65 02 
 16 A3 10 A3 CC FF 5C 45 08 C9 35 76 00 65 F3 AD 
 F3 6E C1 A2 33 60 6E 01 6A 20 E7 
End

Also, the RDF needs to be updated. In the [Protocols] section, change 012A to 012A:2. I've uploaded my version here.

Woo hoo! That fixed it Binky, the receiver is responding now. Thanks!

Thanks also to the others who've responded, and anyone who might have suggestions to help me figure out why the XBox isn't responding.

The 012A fix was for the XBox. Your upgrade has only 4 fixed bytes but the built-in 012A protocol expects 8 fixed bytes. Hence the RDF change to 012A:2.

Nice. Reloaded the upgrade from RM and noticed that I had the AUX code set for VCR2000 instead of DVD2000. I'm not sure it that's what fixed it, but it's working now. Thanks guys!

VCR and DVD map to the same buttons on this remote. If you look at the Fixed Data section in the device upgrade within IR or within RM, you'll notice the non-working .IR file had 4 fixed data bytes while the current working one has 8 fixed data bytes.

Thanks, binky. This is now fixed in KM v9.12, but Greg will need to update protocols.ini for RM.
