Sue and Tom (
[email protected]) have tried diligently to get this device to work with their Cinema 6 and Cinema 7 remotes. Here's the result:
The receiver does not respond to the odd numbers and it does not respond to the odd number codes listed in
[Link: starbase314.com].
I searched for advanced codes between 000 and 255 and came up with the following results:
KEY Base EFC EFC
2 163 675
4 115 627
6 131 387
8 211 723
Other codes I found
099 = power on/off
179 = info
226 = menu
I could not find any code (at least between 255 and 033) that operated any odd number, or the channel up function. I also could not find the "back" function that toggles between the previously selected channel and the current one. I guess the only alternative is to have these functions learned.
I found a code that locked up the satellite receiver: 013. It does not toggle; once that code is entered, the receiver will not turn off (although the indicator light on the receiver goes out, indicating that the unit is off). I had to unplug the unit momentarily to bring it back to the point where it will respond again.
If anyone has this receiver and has figured out how or why these other keys seem to be missing. let me know. The above text has been added to the FAQ.
