I just realized as soon as I posted this that I was posting in the wrong section. I will post to the correct forum.

Once you find discrete codes like the ones posted below how do you recognize whether or not it is an acceptable format for say Pronto hex that will allow you to copy and paste into the software editor? If the codes do need to be changed to another format how do you go about doing so? TIA

Actually your best place may be the Discrete Code Hunter section. There's people over there (namely johnsfine) who really know this kind of stuff.

In this case it seems to be Lyndel McGee who really knows this kind of stuff. I added a little to his answer, but without first reading his answer I wouldn't have even noticed that the HP icon in the middle of the post was a link to the original document.


So he probably also didn't notice that the icon was a link to that info.

Without the original document it would have taken me a long time to figure out the protocol is MCE and provide instructions to generate it with MakeHex, and I never would have reached the (probably easier) instructions Lyndel posted to use direct entry of RC6a.
