Controlling two Panasonic devices - DMR-E80H and DMR-E85H
Posted: Sat Apr 21, 2007 4:28 pm
I have used JP1 with my Panasonic DMR-E80H HDD/DVD-R for the past year and recently purchased a second Panasonic unit, DMR-E85H.
I am having trouble setting up my remote to control both units.
Remote: 15-1994
Protocol: Panasonic
Upgrade: Panasonic_DMR-E85H_Robman
(I made some button assignment changes with KM)
With the remote I changed the DMR-E85H setup to recognize "Remote 2". Now the DMR-E85H does not respond to remote signals (it flashes "Chk Remote2").
I've tried to set this up the DMR-E85H as a second device using Panasonic protocol with sub-device 16 (actually, I've tried a combination of values for sub-device and OEM Code...1, 2, 16, etc.). I thought that "Remote 1" is sub-device 0, "Remote 2" is sub-device 16, etc. but I am not sure I understand how this all works. Regardless of what I put use, the remote continues to control the original DMR-E80H and not the DMR-E85H.
Two requests -
1) Advice on how to set up my remote to control both Panasonic boxes, and
2) Advice on how to temporarily "reset" the DMR-E85H back to accept Remote1 signals (I tried factory reset by pressing Ch+ and Ch- simultaneously on the front of the box - this reset all settings but the box is still flashing "Chk Remote2"
Thanks
