I'm Looking For Classe`s Remote Interface Box Discrete Codes In Hex Form. I have the System code and The Command codes, But I Don't Know How to Convert In Hex.

Please Help Me....

Post the info you have, so maybe we can help.

Remote Control Type: RECS80
Subsystem Address: RC MODEL4
Code:5

Command Codes:
8= on
9= off
24= amp4
25= amp3
26= amp2
27= amp1
34= amp6
35= amp5

If been a long time since I've seen the term RECS80. I've forgotten what it means. I did a quick AltaVista search and found several detailed official looking documents by Philips and others defining RECS80 as the 11 bit protocol (with toggle bit) used in many Thomson devices.

I found other documents clearly (but less officially) defining it as the standard 48 bit Panasonic protocol.

I found a few more defining it as ANY protocol that encodes bits the same way as Thomson, Panasonic, NEC, and the majority of other protocols (Just about anything other than RC-5, RC-6 and Sony).

If you want to post pronto hex for any one signal of your original device, then we'll know what protocol you really mean and know what to do with the numbers you posted for discretes (how to use MakeHex to create the 8 discretes you want).

A few web searches later, I'm now pretty sure that Classe is using the Philips RECS80 code generated by the SAA3004 chip. I'm not sure whether all the descriptions of "RECS80" elsewhere that contradict this are all errors or whether there is more than one protocol named "RECS80".

If you create hex for this with MakeHex, the toggle bit won't toggle. I doubt that would matter for a simple set of discrete commands, but it might.

I also see "correct" timing (frequency, pulse widths, etc.) defined by Philips for the SAA3004 chip, but looking at CML files that use this protocol, the timing varies all over. It might be necessary to match Classe's possibly wrong timing.

Haav, some of your other posts made it seem like you understand the special format of hex commands which start with 7000 and this this format might get the toggle bit for Philips RECS80 right, the way the more common special hex formats get the toggle bit right for RC-5 and RC-6. Can you explain the 7000 format?

The 7000 format use a internal database in the Pronto. I think Evgueni Oulianov knows more about it.

I´m not sure if a get it right.

Please let me know it works.
