This is the thing, I have a computer case that has a IR receiver that only accepts RC-6 encoding. Specifically, an MCE remote, but I guess any RC-6 should work, right?

So I want to find a predefined code in the remote that sends in RC-6 signaling to be able to use it with this PC.

In fact I already have an MCE remote and I can receive the codes, but I'm having some problems, so I want to test another RC-6 one to know if the problem is in the remote or the receiver.

Thanks

RC-6 is an infrared code format. So "any" RC-6 won't work, it has to be the exact codes your PC is looking for.

I strongly doubt that a preprogrammed MCE codeset is built-in to the VL600. If you have an existing MCE remote (and it sounds like you do) you can teach its codes to the VL600. However note that you'll need to make the EnableDebounce registry edit for these learned codes to work correctly (search the forums here for more info).

Well, in fact, I think that any RC-6 code format set of codes should work, as in the PC I can also learn the codes (not fixed MCE), but should be RC-6 encoded. That's why I'm looking for another RC-6 codeset to compare to my existing MCE remote...

Ah... well, I still can't name anything in the RM-VL600 that's guaranteed to be RC6. RC6 is also similar to RC5, which is used by many Philips/Marantz/Magnavox products... some devices even mix the codes.
