JP1 Remotes

I was tempted to post this under the non-JP1 forum, but since this particular remote actually has the same header as the JP1.3 Atlas 1056B01 that I have, it's essentially a close sibling.

So, as the subject says, I have some 1056B03 remotes -- one with no JP designation, and another one with JP2 silkscreened by the header. See pictures below.

Have any of you encountered these, and are you able to use a JP1.x cable to read from or write to it? My attempts to do so have failed. Same cables (diygadget serial cable, and another USB), which work on the 1056B01 JP1.3 remote, don't work with the 1056B03 remotes. IR.exe reports "Failed to open JP1.x interface" with these. Manufacture date on these is Dec '10 and Apr '11 for the unlabeled and the JP2 labeled remotes, respectively.

I haven't got a Tommy Tyler cable to test with at this moment (but looking to get one to try out -- but curious to see if anyone else has tried yet).

Any thoughts?

I thought the JP1.4 was the last remote we had been stonewalled on, and I was not aware there was a model designated JP2. When did it show up? Do we know anything about what's in it? Is there a thread somewhere that talks about "having no success communicating with JP2 remotes"?

I just got 6 of these to run my whole house, also purchased a jp1.2/3 programmer from tommy. I really like the look of the remotes and was looking forward to programming them. but they will not talk to the computer.

I found this thread and I hope the problem has been solved.

Any help would be appreciated

The problem has not been solved yet, but we are working on it as hard as we can. For now you'll just have to hang in there and keep your fingers crossed.

I am curious about one thing. Since the Atlas 1056B01 (a JP1.3 remote supported by our present software) and the Atlas 1056B03 (a JP2 remote NOT yet supported) are virtually identical in function and appearance, what influenced you to choose the latter?

The reason I bought the reomtes is that the vendor on ebay said that they were JP1.3 remotes so I thought they would program. I guess I sholuld have only bought one to try. I am going to try to return them, but I don't have much hope.

anyway, everyone beware this remote from ebay will not work.

That's a very good price for a good remote. If you'll just hold on to them I'm very confident we will soon be able to program them.

I traded in a couple broken atlas learning 30333033 remotes to shaw and they gave me two new 1056B03 JP2 remotes, the silk screening is a little different from your pics.
I have a JP 1.x usb cable from diygadget, if I could be of any help dumping or debugging just let me know.

We've come a long way in the last few months. If you want to try the latest development version, see this post which gives a link and explains how to install it. I have today updated the RMIR version in that link to RMIR v2.02 Beta 1.5o and have added an RDF for the Atlas 1056B03. There is still a lot we don't yet understand about JP2 so please play with this and report your findings, good or bad. BTW note that, on mine at any rate, the JP2 connector is what I consider to be upside down. Pin 1 is top right rather than bottom left.

The RMIR development version linked to in this post now includes Linux support.
