Does anyone know if discrete codes for "HD" and "SD" exist for the DISH 6000 receiver?

If you know for sure they do not exist, a simple "no they don't exist" will answer my question satisfactorly (that a word???).

Thanks...

Here are the Power discrete codes for the 6000, address 1. These codes are listed in the file section of Remote Central.

Address 1

SD/HD workaround......
Several customers have expressed the desire to have discrete SD/HD codes rather than one toggle key. Most need this feature to program universal remote-type units which require the separate codes. Because the 6000 remote does not have two free key codes, this feature had to be implemented using a sequence of two keys. By pressing the SD/HD (TV/VIDEO) toggle key and then pressing the PAGE_UP key (after letting up on the SD/HD key) the receiver will end up in the HD state regardless of the start state. Similarly, the SD/HD toggle key and PAGE_DOWN key will change the receiver state to SD.

Detailed Operation:
The sequence should work as follows:

Sequence

Action

Response

1.Press and release the SD/HD toggle key.
The Receiver should immediately toggle its state (SD --> HD, or HD -->SD). This is normal operation.

2. a. Within two seconds of the above key press (the timer starts after the initial code is sent out) press the PAGE_UP key.

If the receiver is in the HD state then it should stay there. Otherwise, the receiver should transition to the HD state (HD --> HD, or SD --> HD).

2. b. (alternative to 2. a.) Within two seconds of the above key press (the timer starts after the initial code is sent out) press the PAGE_DOWN key.

If the receiver is in the SD state then it should stay there. Otherwise, the receiver should transition to the SD state (SD --> SD, or HD --> SD).

Note that the receiver may transition from SD --> HD --> SD if it starts out in SD and the customer gives it a discrete SD (SD/HD toggle, PAGE_DOWN) key sequence. This is because the normal toggle operation has not been inhibited.

Hope this helps,
Dave

If the workaround works, then yes it helps. Thanks Dave!
