I'm trying to help a friend out by making a couple changes to his MX6000 remote, I'm using the CCP program to try and download from the remote to my laptop, it starts to download and than I get download failed at 47% every time. I have tried 3 laptops (XP and Windows7) same problem.
Does it make a difference if the remote was programmed with CCP commercial or residential? I'm using the commercial now.

Thanks in advance for your input.

I think the commercial suite just give you different room names and some optional modules for lights, etc. It shouldn't matter which suite you use to program, as the back logic is going to be the same. URC isn't going to go through the trouble of rewriting everything. (Look at how you can still buy the MSC-400 new).

Can you do a factory restore of the MX6000 or dump a blank program into it first? Are you trying to DL over wifi or usb?

That makes sense.

Since I don't have the original program and I really don't want to write an entire new program I haven't tried the restore option or uploading a program to the remote. I just want to upload the existing program from the remote to my laptop to make a couple changes. I'm using a USB cable (tried a couple of them same result) CCP connects to remote and starts the upload, stops at 47% every time (upload error). I could try wifi but never did trie it before.

I ran into this problem with an MX900 and a (newer) 880. Both kept freezing at certain points in the download process.

That's really tough, as the 6000 came out in 2008. At this point, it is at least a 5 year old remote. I can send you a legit 6000 file I programmed if you need something new to try and dump into it. Maybe that will tell you if it is the remote or not. My guess based on age: hope wifi works and start looking for a replacement.

Do you know who/what company programmed the remote originally?

There are a few locked down versions of CCP that were distributed to many Larger companies (Magnolia, Tweeter, etc.) that can not be uploaded or modified.

I've run into this on MX900's and MX980's (Done by Magnolia/Best Buy); to my knowledge there is no work around as the base file was a contracted series of templates and are the legal property of the corporations.

Thanks for the info guys. I will try and contact the company that did the original program and if I don't hear back from them I might take you up on your offer of a basic program to start with.

Thanks

Having put half a decade in at Magnolia, this is certainly news to me. I guess this is good knowledge to have, in case I ever run into an old piece.
