Thank you all so much for your honesty and help, but I am still a little confused. <br>I have read my remote's manual and know how to teach it keys; my problem is that I don't know how to get the correct values to enter in as the keyboard codes.
<br><br>FOr sure, my remote is not one of the fancy learning remotes that you can just point the other remote at and have it learn the command/keycode, and I know that I have to enter each key manually. But I don't know what to enter in as the command/keycode.
<br><br>So, I can put it in 'learn key mode', tell it I want it to learn the 'left arrow command', but then what do I put in as the command? It cannot 'listen' for a command from another remote or keyboard (at least the manual doesn't tell me how)
<br><br>Am I misunderstanding that my remote (URC-6131) can actually mimic or work with an IR keyboard?
<br><br>I just don't understand that one step of how you find out what to enter in as a code from whatever the keyboard sends. I can find out how to get the keyboard codes, but they are long hex strings, correct? Do I convert these numbers to decimal numbers then enter those?
<br><br>I know I am missing something about all of this, I just don't know what and need a little push. All help is GREATLY appreciated.<br><br>Should I upgrade? I am reading through the JP1 docs on <a href="http://remotecentral.com">
remotecentral.com</a> and <a href="http://hifi-remotes.com">hifi-remotes.com</a>, but am still unclear. <br clear="all"><br>I really am not trying to be difficult. I am trying to find the solution to this, but keep going round in circles. If anybody sees what I don't seem to understand correctly, please set me straight.
<br><br>Once again, thanks in advance. The answers have gotten me closer (I know it is not a proper 'learning' remote now), but I am still not quite there.<br>-- <br>Ramzy Darwish<br><a href="mailto:ramzy.darwish@gmail.com" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
