hi,

i'm trying to get the hex codes for a Sanyo CE32WN5 so i can enter them into my PSP and use it as a remote control. does anyone know where i can get the codes....?

why...................why????

Most Sanyo TV's have the same basic set of IR signals.

The Sanyo CE28H2 in this JP1 file [Link: hifi-remote.com] has those signals.

As do the following CCF files:

Sanyo DS25580
[Link: remotecentral.com]

Sanyo AVM-2000
[Link: remotecentral.com]

Sanyo DS25760
[Link: remotecentral.com]

Sanyo AVM-3257
[Link: remotecentral.com]

I expect your Sanyo also uses those same IR signals. But there isn't posted info for that exact model to check. You'll need to test it yourself.

If you don't know how to get the hex codes you want from CCF files, then ask a clearer question about that, or search the forum for threads about MakeHex (This Sanyo code set is NEC1 protocol, device 56 and uses most of the function numbers in the range 0 to 31 and some function numbers in the range 64 to 95. MakeHex can be used to generate clean Pronto Hex for those signals).

How would you go about opening the JP1 file? I know that JP1 is a certain type of remote file, but how can you open it to view/remove the Sanyo hex codes?

You probably don't want to go to that trouble.

I mentioned the JP1 file above only because its model number was more similar to the requested model than the model numbers in available CCF files are.

The point of that mention was to say that I have checked and the basic set of IR signals in that JP1 file is the same as in all those CCF files.

I expect you'll have a much easier time getting the hex data you want from a CCF file.

But if you really want to view JP1 files, you need a Java program called RemoteMaster and you need a fairly current install of Sun Java. Both are free. See:
[Link: sourceforge.net]

Even once you open/view the JP1 file with RM (RemoteMaster) you won't have Pronto Hex, because JP1 remotes don't use Pronto Hex. To get the Pronto Hex:

The setup sheet in RM will show you the protocol and device info, which can be used to select and edit an .irp file in the MakeHex package. Then MakeHex can generate Pronto Hex for the full set of 256 possible commands for that protocol and device. Then you can use the functions sheet in RM to tell you the "OBC" number of each named function. That OBC number is the "function" number in the MakeHex output, so you can grab the ProntoHex for each function name by using that function number.

The whole process isn't quite as involved as the above description makes it sound, but it is a lot more than just grabbing the Pronto Hex you want from and existing CCF file.

Johnsfine, you seem like you really know your way around IR stuff. I am trying to track down discrete ON and OFF ir codes for a Sanyo AVM-3659G to use in a ProntoPro. I have used MakeHex with the info you suggested above (NEC1, Device 56) and then used IRpanels to test each code and none of them seemed to work. I don't know if there is something that I am doing wrong in MakeHex, or if my TV doesn't use NEC1, Device 56. How do you figure out witch protocol and device number a TV uses? Any suggestions?

Do I understand you correctly, none of the signals did anything to the Sanyo? Or did you just mean none were discrete On or Off?



You can email the CCF created by IrPanels to me and I'll check whether you did anything wrong in MakeHex or IrPanels. I expect your TV does use NEC1:56, but ...


If you have any signal learned from the original remote or any signal in your Pronto (even a database signal) that works any function of the Sanyo, then it is easy.

For a text string of ordinary Pronto Hex beginning 0000, you can decode with the JP1 version of IrTool.exe.

For that kind of Pronto hex or most other kinds (you probably have the 900A kind) in a CCF file, you can use the DecodeCCF program to decode it.

If you don't want to learn those programs, you could post the Pronto Hex of any working signal for your Sanyo or email a CCF with a working signal, and I'll tell you the Protocol and device number.
