JP1 Remotes

Got it working. where do i post the RM file? The yahoo group doesn't let me upload.

I've been having great luck w/ my RS 15-2117 remote. I've programmed upgrades for my cable box, Media Center and receiver. I have an Onkyo TX-SR605 receiver, and I used the 600 JP1 file to upgrade my remote. This seems to work on 99% of the functions, however, Power On is set to the power button ...

you're right on. I built a quick cable on a bread board and it works fine. I accidentally had a wire loose, and the remote blinked and i got the interface error. Looks like that is what happens when a wire is loose. looks like a bad cable!

I also noticed that when the remote is not plugged in, or plugged in improperly, i get a "no response from the interface" error. When its plugged in properly, i get a "no response from the remote" error.

i've tried all configurations of the parallel port on two different computers. i tried it w/ batteries, w/o batteries, w/ one battery reversed, new batteries. I tried it w/ the cable the correct way (arrow in the lower left position) and reversed. i checked the cable to ensure that pin 18 and 25 ...

no, the address is correct. Do you have your port set to normal, bidirectional or ECP/EPP. i doubt that makes a difference since it runs at the speed of the remote.

Have you looked at the parallel port settings in IR?

For example have you configured the IO port for the parallel port to match yours?

The remote's LCDs are supposed to light up for about 3 seconds, just like you experience.

I have the Interface set to Parallel port. Other than that, i haven't ...

I have a RS 15-2117 w/ RF extender. I have all of my home theater devices programmed into it, but would like to download the settings to my PC and possible add some more buttons via the JP1 interface.

I picked up the parallel port cable from DIY gadgets, but i'm having some problems. I'm using IR ...

Good news. Actually that was a great analogy! Thanks!

I have the RS 15-2117. I'm getting a JP1 cable, but i was curious how the codes entered through software use the memory of the remote? It seems like this remote has very limited memory, since i ran out of memory using a few devices. if i enter a bunch of devices through the JP1 cable, will that use ...
