&lt;br /&gt;
===Instructions:===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:# Find a JP1 upgrade file the [http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload.php?action=category&amp;amp;cat_id=4 Device Upgrade] category of the File Section.&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;(In the examples below, we&amp;#039;re going to use this file, &amp;quot;[http://www.hifi-remote.com/forums/dload.php?action=file&amp;amp;file_id=4687 DirecTV D1x, H2x, HR2x, R1x and R2x series (addr 1-8)]&amp;quot; in the demonstration)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:# Load that file into Remote Master (RM).&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[[Image:RIDgen.RM-Setup.jpg]]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:# Run RIDGen and copy the &amp;quot;Protocol&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Device Number&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;Sub-Device&amp;quot; or other sub-parameter from RM into the respective fields.  &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;[[Image:RIDgen.Setup.jpg]]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:# Select the &amp;quot;Functions&amp;quot; tab in RM. &amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[[image:RIDgen.RM-Functions.jpg]]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:# Copy the EFC or OBC codes for all digits 0 through 9, as well as Enter and Power functions (if available) from RM to RIDGen.  &amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;[[Image:RIDgen.Functions.jpg]]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:# Click the &amp;quot;MakeHex&amp;quot; button to verify the Initial bits and Repeated bits get generated and propagate into their respective columns. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:#* You might get an error stating, &amp;quot;Unknown Protocol&amp;quot;. &amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[[Image:RIDgen.Unknown.jpg]]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt; This is an indication that MakeHex does not have a InfraRed Protocol (IRP) file for the respective protocol included with the RIDgen distribution.  You may need to generate one or find an appropriate IRP file which address the selected protocol.  &amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;In this case, we can the [[DecodeIR#DirecTV|DecodeIR]] documentation against the [[DirecTV]] protocol.  It states that DirecTV was once called, &amp;quot;Russound&amp;quot;.  Since there is a Russound.irp file in the RIDgen directory, we can either rename the file or reword the protocol field appropriately.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;[[Image:RIDgen.MakeHex.jpg]]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:# At this point you can click &amp;quot;Save&amp;quot; in RIDGen, the filename will default to &amp;quot;C1000fi.rid&amp;quot;.  The nomenclature of the filename is &amp;quot;(first letter of Type)(Code#)fi.rid&amp;quot;.  Altering the values for Code and Type in RIDgen will change the output filename respectively when opting to save.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:* You can see an overview of the fields in the [[RM to RIDgen Overview]] document.&lt;br /&gt;
