That's interesting. I thought it would be the other way around if only one was going to work.

I used the JVC carrier. Russound might be picky.

39kHz:
0000 006A 0000 0020 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0316 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0316 00E2 0071 004B 0094 0094 03B5

40kHz:
0000 0068 0000 0020 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0325 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0325 00E7 0073 004D 0097 0097 03C7

If neither work we can try adding a copy of the Russound code at the end.

Dave,

Same thing with both of them. The Russound didn't respond, the JVC did.

Thanks,
Mark

I doubt that the Russound is that picky about carrier. But you don't know till you experiment.

To approach it more systematically, you might want to address the various unknowns individually.

First, try working with a cleaner copy of the JVC vol+ command

0000 006D 0001 0011 0141 00A0 0014 003C 0014 003C 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 003C 0014 0014 0014 003C 0014 0014 0014 003C 0014 003C 0014 003C 0014 003C 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0994

Next try the Russound command alone, but adjusted to the JVC frequency:

0000 006D 0000 0003 00D0 0068 0045 0088 0088 0368

Try this...
0000 006A 0000 0023 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0316 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 003F 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0316 00E2 0071 004B 0094 0094 03B5 00E2 0071 004B 0094 0094 03B5

If the ones I put in post 18 work individually, they would combine as

0000 006D 0001 0017 0141 00A0 0014 003C 0014 003C 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 003C 0014 0014 0014 003C 0014 0014 0014 003C 0014 003C 0014 003C 0014 003C 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0994 00D0 0068 0045 0088 0088 0368 00D0 0068 0045 0088 0088 0368

Dave,

That time the russound responded, but JVC didn't. Progress...

Thanks for all your time. You and John Rock!

Mark

I also have the JVC command alone at the Russound frequency

0000 0067 0001 0011 0153 00AA 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0A23

And that combined with the original Russound command.

0000 0067 0001 0017 0153 00AA 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0A23 00DC 006E 0049 0090 0090 039B 00DC 006E 0049 0090 0090 039B

John, the Russound code with JVC freq controlled the Russound just fine. I will try these other codes and see what happens.

Thanks,
Mark

No, it's not progress and may be a dead end.

It seems to indicate that the Pronto firmware may be playing games with the code. There's no logical reason why the JVC code worked when followed by one Russound code but not when followed by two copies.

Without knowing what the Pronto is actually transmitting, I'm not sure what to try next and don't have time to experiment.

Here's two codes that reverse the order. If neither work, I'm all out of ideas.

0000 0067 0000 0020 00DC 006E 0049 0090 0090 039B 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0300 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0300

0000 0067 0000 0023 00DC 006E 0049 0090 0090 039B 00DC 006E 0049 0090 0090 039B 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0300 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 003D 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0014 0300

John both the codes in post 18 work, but the combined in 20 doesn't. I will try the other posted codes now.

Thanks,
Mark

I will try your's also Dave.

Thanks

Doesn't work for either?
I have some guesses why the JVC might fail in that version (and how to fix it). But if the Russound in 18 worked AND the Russound part of the combination in 19 worked, I don't see how the Russound part of 20 can fail.

Dave is right the the NG firmware and PENG can do strange things, so we don't really know it's sending the signals we construct, but I don't like to blame that for everything. Often the problem is something else and the NG and PENG problems are just distractions.

John,

The JVC at russound freq worked for the JVC, but the combined in Post 22 didn't work.

Dave, I'll try your codes now.

I really appreciate all of the time you guys are putting in on this with me.

Thanks,
Mark

Actually, it was from a Gershwin score. ;)

Dave,

Code 1 in Post 24:

JVC worked Russound no.

Code 2 in Post 24:

Russound worked JVC no.

This bites. I do notice that PPENG is changing the code a little bit (bumping numbers by one or two ie, 300 to 2fd) I Don't know if that would make a big difference or not.

Mark

John,

Just for clarity, the code in post 20, it works for Russound, not JVC. I didn't mean it didn't work at all.

Code posted in 22 is the same. Russound works, jvc no.

Thanks,
Mark
