The 3rd word controls what gets sent once and the 4th controls the repeating portion (ie, what gets sent while the button is held).
The "Balance Right" code is:
Code: Select all
0000 006F 000B 0000 0020 0022 0020 0022 0020 0022 0020 0022 003F 0024 0020 0022 0020 0022 0020 0043 0020 0022 003F 0045 003F CB34
I tried changing the 4rd word from 0000 to 000B, but that made the Balance Right command stop working. It makes the MX-850 behave strangely when keeping the key down: the sending icon remains ON, as if it was repeating, but it's sending garbage that's not recognized by the device (nor by an IR extender I built and which feedback LED stops blinking).

the leadout is probably too long (ie, the last word), so try this instead...
0000 006F 0000 000b 0020 0022 0020 0022 0020 0022 0020 0022 003F 0024 0020 0022 0020 0022 0020 0043 0020 0022 003F 0045 003F 0CA8

However, setting the 4rd word to 0001 instead of 000B enables the repeat, but it's slow and erratic. So, you're on something.
Oops, your answer went at the same time, I'll try your last suggestion.

That works!
You found out how to activate the repeat, many thanks. I need to study Barf answer now to figure out how too get the correct codes more reliably.

That is great news! I would suggest the following experiment to finally settle the toggle question: Got to the "Generate" pane, select protocol RC5, D=24, F=1 (this is exactly the same as 5000...). Then select T=0, and send the signal several times (waiting a second or so between), using the Toy, Select T=1 and repeat the experiment.
E1 works with both settings with the Toy.
Is this possibly the toggle, i.e.
0000 0073 0000 000C 0020 0020 0040 0040 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0020 0CA8 every second time and
0000 0073 0000 000D 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0020 0CA8
the other times?
There is a toggle, but other things change.
Here are some Balance left captures:

All work well with the USB Toy, but with the MX-850, they trigger Balance Right instead!
Asking about the MX-850 here is like asking a Windows question in a Linux forum.
Remotecentral knows better.
Yes, but it seems that there are more knowledgeable people here!
But one thing that you may try is to capture the MX-850 should-be RC5/24/1 signal as raw, and compare with the one generated by IrScrutinizer. Use output format raw, not pronto hex, for this. Post it here if you need help.
You mean with my Arduino? I'll take a peek at the IR library to see what you mean by that.

Wow Rob, that's a lot of time spent to help me, thanks.
Unfortunately, that works only with the USB Toy and IRScrutinizer, not with the MX-850 which seems to have a lot of trouble dealing with this new processor.
the leadout is probably too long (ie, the last word), so try this instead...

Upon further testing, I realized that this indeed enables repeat, but makes single press work erratically. Sometimes one press makes nothing, sometimes it makes the device react 2 to 4 times (never 1).
I'm thinking to an alternate solution: sending a whole bunch of different IR commands that will be understood by my Arduino only, and having the Arduino resend clean codes.
That should be possible since the USB Toy works with your codes.
Only problem, I don't know how to use one of your strings with the Arduino.

does not work. I'll ask on an Arduino forum, but maybe barf knows how to use the raw values above directly with IRlib?

The first one works, not the second.

So the bottom line is, the MX-850 doesn't handle valid RC5 signals properly. Unfortunately, I know nothing about the MX-850 or Arduino, so I can't help there. Best I can suggest is, keep experimenting until you find something that works with them, then once you have 1 good working learn, post it here and I can probably edit the hex that I posted so that you will have the whole set.
And it was no trouble creating those, we have an old program called MakeHex that can create them in a jiffy.

Thanks Rob.
Barf, since you know well the Arduino, I stored raw values for Bal left with a signal sent by the Toy that does work wih the new device, which turned out to be:
Code: Select all
#define RawBalLeftLEN 21
unsigned int RawBalLeft[RawBalLeftLEN] = { 0x352, 0x3b6, 0x6a4, 0x708, 0x320, 0x3e8, 0x672, 0x3e8, 0x320, 0x3b6, 0x352, 0x3b6, 0x320, 0x73a, 0x352, 0x3b6, 0x6a4, 0x708, 0x320, 0x3e8, 0x320 };
Then I used:
Code: Select all
Sender.IRsendRaw::send(RawBalLeft, RawBalLeftLEN, 38);
It works only with the old device!!!
This is starting to drive me nuts...

If there is a description of the HEX fields themselves somewhere, I'd be happy to learn how to edit those. You know the saying, "if you give a fish to a man...".
The proper repeat modification is still elusive though. What you proposed is a good start, but does not work well enough to be used.
And it was no trouble creating those, we have an old program called MakeHex that can create them in a jiffy.
I'll get it, thanks.

The main thing that I notice is that those 4 learns are all non-repeating, so you could try just swapping the 3rd and 4th words in the ones that I posted.
I also noticed that all 4 learns have the toggle bit set, I don't know if that's relevant or not.

That is great news! I would suggest the following experiment to finally settle the toggle question: Got to the "Generate" pane, select protocol RC5, D=24, F=1 (this is exactly the same as 5000...). Then select T=0, and send the signal several times (waiting a second or so between), using the Toy, Select T=1 and repeat the experiment.
E1 works with both settings with the Toy.
So, that rules out the toggle as the culprit.
Is this possibly the toggle, i.e.
0000 0073 0000 000C 0020 0020 0040 0040 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0020 0CA8 every second time and

the other times?
There is a toggle, but other things change.
Here are some Balance left captures:
...
Important lesson here: these (your captures) are really the same signals, (with different value of the toggle parameter). All measurements of physical quantities are associated with random measurement errors. This explains the difference -- which is "small", so small that analyzing hardware or software will (hopefully) recognize them as the same signal (with the exception of the toggle). IrScrutinizer, when capturing in "cooked" (parametric) mode recognizes the signal, and can them compute it using mathematical formulas. That way we do not need to capture a lot of them, and we get clean signals, without the measurement errors. Please always try to capture in parametic mode.
But one thing that you may try is to capture the MX-850 should-be RC5/24/1 signal as raw, and compare with the one generated by IrScrutinizer. Use output format raw, not pronto hex, for this. Post it here if you need help.
You mean with my Arduino? I'll take a peek at the IR library to see what you mean by that.
No, I meant anything that gives you relatively precise measurements, like your IrToy.

Wow Rob, that's a lot of time spent to help me, thanks.
I would like to remark that you can generate that table with just a few keyclicks in IrScrutinizer (on "Generate", select "rc5" type 24 for D and * for F, go to Export, select Text and check "pronto hex", click "Export generated".)
Only problem, I don't know how to use one of your strings with the Arduino.
Sending 0000 0073 0000 000B 0020 0020 0040 0040 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0020 0040 0020 0020 0040 0040 0020 0020 0020 0CA4 gives with it:
Code: Select all
Decoded RC5(3): Value:161B (13 bits)
Raw samples(22): Gap:12394
Head: m800 s1000
0:m1650 s1850 1:m800 s1000 2:m1650 s1000 3:m750 s1000
4:m800 s1000 5:m800 s1850 6:m800 s1000 7:m1650 s1850
8:m800 s1000 9:m800
Extent=23850
Mark min:750 max:1650
Space min:1000 max:1850
But using:
Code: Select all
for(int i = 0; i<1; i++)
Sender.send(RC5, 0x161B, 13);
does not work. I'll ask on an Arduino forum, but maybe barf knows how to use the raw values above directly with IRlib?
Frankly, I do not hold the Arduino IRlib or IRremote in very high regard. So I wrote my own
Infrared4Arduino. which is compatible with the terminology/parametrization used here. But you do not need it. Instead you can use
GirsLite to control the Arduino directly from IrScrutinizer.

Yes, that is where we stand... Ever considered a JP1-remote, for example....?

How about
my description?

Yes. IrScrutinizer can also do it. It contains the lessons learned since the time Makehex was written.
