No change with this. If anything, the rapid-fire might be just a tad faster, though it's hard to tell. |
But you don't get 32.5 ms just by changing those two bytes.
There is another bit (I forget where and don't have PB on THIS computer) that tells whether roughly 65 ms is added to the value specified by those bytes. The upgrade had that bit set to get the original lead out. You need to clear that bit as well as changing those two bytes. |

You can also set only Ch+/-, Vol+/-, FF, and Rew to repeat (since Temp is on Ch+/-):
Upgrade Protocol 0 = 01 C9 (S3C8+) Kaseikyo (KM v8.22)
46 90 51 8B 12 87 45 08 08 00 D7 00 B5 00 D7 02
6A 88 B8 06 AA 03 41 08 08 E4 07 08 09 07 F0 C0
B4 07 C0 56 C0 0F B4 C0 08 8D 01 46
End
Change to 46 _________________ -Jon |

That's a workable compromise for now, even though the repeats are still rapid-fire.
Rob's offered to learn the signals on his Pronto, so I may just take him up on that offer. I'll probably wait until I install the 2nd unit, which will be a while since a family of Finches has taken up residence under the old A/C unit! _________________ Mark |

How about the maximum interval (131,072 uS) plus repeat only for c+/- etc:
Upgrade Protocol 0 = 01 C9 (S3C8+) Kaseikyo (KM v8.22)
46 90 51 8B 12 87 46 08 08 00 D7 00 B5 00 D7 02
6A FF FF 06 AA 03 41 08 08 E4 07 08 09 07 F0 C0
B4 07 C0 56 C0 0F B4 C0 08 8D 01 46

That's marginally better. I still get the rapid-fire, but not as many or as quickly. I also tried it with standard repeat (using $45) to test the other buttons.
This seems like an awful lot of work for a simple air conditioner. But I suppose in the pursuit of JP1 perfection, it's a worthwhile endeavor! 8) _________________ Mark |

I was misremembering the boundary by a factor of 2. It is the bit for times greater than around 130ms, not for greater than 65ms. So it wasn't set in this upgrade. I think you're right that it's pf2.6 |

Does PB support Off times greater than ~132 mS? When I was experimenting earlier the field turns red when it is exceeded and it looks like it adds one or two bytes near the beginning. I assumed something "overflowed" and that the red was indicating a max had been exceeded. _________________ -Jon |

Yes, the red indicates that the value is overflowing one or more bytes in the protocol. The actual value where this occurs varies from one remote type to another. I'm not certain if the current PB version supports the extra leadout bit that John was talking about, but I will look into supporting it in a future version. In the meantime, you'd have to add code manually to extend the off time. _________________ Mike England |
