JP1 Remotes

I have a RS 2104 and have learned the power code for a JVC G10 to the "play' button under CD. I learned other commands as well. The problem is you need to push the button for 2-3 seconds for it too work.This is the case for the original remote as well. How do you insert a long key press into a macro using JP1?

Use the LDKP (Long/Double Key Press) special protocol, which can be found in the Special Protocols folder (at Yahoo)

Maybe I'm misinterpreting the original question, but I'll try to answer.

My understanding is that LDKP will RECOGNISE when a key is pressed and held or pressed twice.

What I think was asked is "can the remote be programmed to, in effect, hold a key for a longer-than-normal amount of time?"


I think the answer to this question is obtained by determining what the OEM remote does when this key is held for a longer period. Some options are: 1) continuously send single code, 2) send one code, pause, send same code, 3) send one code, pause, send another code, 4) send one code on press, another code on release.

Cases 1 and 2 can be easily simulated (for case 2, use a pause protocol or null commands to simulate a pause). For cases 3 and 4, you will need to determine the two different transmitted codes. This may be possible using your OFA remote (if it is a learning one). For case 3, learn the "press" separately from the "release". For case 4, you will need to cover and uncover the transmitter at strategic times to learn(this is *pure* speculation: I don't know if any OEM remotes even operate this way).

After learning, load the remote to the PC and attempt to decode the learned signals. After learning the (possibly different) commands, use the keycodes to program the desired functionality. *This* is where you could use a combination of macros and LDKP (or LDKP and pause protocol) to simulate the original functionality.

LDKP should give you the ability to simulate a long keypress in a macro.
