JP1 Remotes

Hi,

I'm getting used to original JP1 function of URC-8017. I know it takes time to study complicated extender. So, I want to just move some devices upgrade space for key moves memory. I've read other topic talk about address assignment in RDF, and have tried to update it. It won't works normally. Is there simple way to do it?

Too bad to hear this. I've tried extender, but I have same duration trouble on macro for dishnetwork's RC and another RC as other topic talk about - TOO FAST.

I think I need to turn off all functions of extender back to original macro function, just use new address in extender. Can I do it?

=======================
This protocol allows to insert a variable length pause inside a macro.
The protocol works on all S3C8 based remotes ( 15-1994, RCU-810, URC-7560, etc.)
Upgrade protocol 0 = 01 FB (S3C80)
00 00 01 E4 03 C2 C6 C0 00 00 0A FE 1A FC 2A FA
AF
End
Upgrade code 0 = 1C 50 (TV/1104) <=Device=TV, Setup Code=1104
FB 00 01
End
=======================
Here's a protocol for doing a variable-length pause on any of the P8 remotes
(8080, 8090, 8800, 9800, 15-1995, 5550, Maestro):

Upgrade protocol 0 = 01 FB (740)
00 00 01 A5 5D A0 50 22 42 1A D0 F9 60
End
=======================

I found this two 01FB protocol ID for pause function, but they conflict 01FB ID with extender's. Is it same function as pause in extender? Or I need to change one of this protocol ID for my own?

The 01FB protocol in the extender is probably the same and is pause. In the readme for the extender it should tell you how to use it.

@Nils_Ekberg,

I've tested original 1FB in extender, that doesn't work. The new pause function that I've posted is working for me.

@wwwoholic,

Yes, I found it. The extender send signal duration is not enough on some IR receiver. The 8910 & 8017 extender all not user friendly for me. And, I don't like 8910 extender takes way learning function. That's why I only want to move some space for key moves. If you can e-mail me for your device combine upgrade. That'll save time to study it.

Yes, thanks for your reply. I want to test device combine upgrade.

I've uploaded it into Yahoo Diagnosis Area under the name dcupgrade.zip. Please, let me know when I can delete it.

wwwoholic,

Thanks, I've downloaded it. I think you can move it to other forum for other ppls. Many newbies need many helps, they will thanks to you too.

BTW, I found one trick to use 0x400~0x7ff learning memory for my URC-8017 without extender. I copied 8910s learning codes to 8017 by HEX Workshop. That's all. I can use learning codes on none-learning 8017. Yea!

Cool! This probably defeats the purpose of device upgrades but on the other hand helps support OEMs with unknown yet protocols. Good thing they did not modify software to disable checking of learning memory address.

Yes, it's lucky to use these memory for unknown protocol. One more thing, you'll need to update checksum when you open added 8017 data file by IR. IR'll tell you new checksum.
