TOPIC:

Hi, can you please publish the IR codes of the remote, in all forms.(I prefer HEX)

It would be much appreciated. Dont know why they are such a big secret.

Cheers

Hi OCD,

Oh surely, we'd be happy to.. No big secret at all, just quite a lot of things to document.
You do realize that our products have an IR learning feature (i.e. they don't have preset remote IR code unless it's a miniDSP remote, aka preprogrammed)

Let me ask the engineers. Which platform are you using?

Hi, and thanks for the reply.

I have a 2x4hd with a miniDSP remote.

All of my audio/video equipment is in a different room controlled by an RF remote.

Regards

And whilst your at it can you post which buttons do what? Is the source button just a toggle between each or do you push source then a number?
Whats the centre button with the triangle shape on it do?

@ OCD

Engineers haven't been able to find time to write documents on this...
We're a bit confused why you need the IR codes though. Is your IR system with a IR flasher correct? If so, you can easily program your RF remote with a random sony TV say.. Then get the 2x4HD to "learn" the commands flashed by the IR flasher. IT will do the trick.
Do you understand what we mean?

Yeah Ok....I'm a bit OCD! I want to use miniDSP codes!

My PC programmable remote(www.universalremote.com/product/mx-980/) sends RF commands to a base station(www.universalremote.com/product/mrf-350-rf-ir-base-station/) that converts the RF signal to IR and then to IR flashers or hard wired into to the IR input of each component.

I understand what you mean with using a 'random' code from some other brand of remote to teach the 2 x 4HD.

What I dont understand is that you sell a remote that besides the obvious buttons(volume +,-,mute), there is no info on how the other buttons function, or whether they are discrete codes or toggles.(Discrete VS toggle code makes a HUGE difference when making up remote macro's on a remote such as mine)

If you like, private message me a description of the button functions(and wether they use discrete codes or just a toggle) and I will do up a description/document with the details of what button does what, you can feel free to publish it if it's to your liking.

Thanks Again

I would also appreciate knowing the IR codes for the 2x4HD remote - protocol used as default and hex codes sent per each button.

IR codes. Captured with Arduino.

NEC Protocol

Source select 0xAC53708F
Config 1 0xAC53807F
Config 2 0xAC5340BF
Config 3 0xAC53A05F
Config 4 0xAC5300FF
Dirac 0xAC53609F
Vol + 0xAC5350AF
Vol - 0xAC53906F
Mute 0xAC5330CF

Thanks - so the configuration file to use with a Squeezebox Touch IRBlaster would be the below.

Are these RC5 codes? I am a Flowcode user which has low level routines to receive and decode RC5 IR codes.
I want to use the miniDSP remote for some additional functions in addition to operating the miniDSP.

I worked on my own NEC remote and unraveled the miniDSP codes. These are NEC codes, so each message consists of 4 bytes: 1 - address byte, 2 - logical inverse of address, 3 - command byte, 4 - logical inverse of cmd byte.
So the start of 0xac53 is address ac, inverse is 53, etc.
See attached, hopefully useful.

Thanks for sharing. Is there any way to directly select the input wanted rather than having to scroll past other available inputs first?

E.g. Are there codes for 'Analogue', 'Toslink' etc or just a code for 'source'
