I have since a few days a WF2IR module and I am trying to automate my TV set with OpenRemote.

I have used the iLearn program to catch all IR  remotes like Philips TV, Cisco 8455DVB HD recorder, Amino M530, Sony HD recorder (RDR-HX725) and the Sony AV Receiver (STR-KS1000P). All devices works except I could not get working the Sony Receiver. The Sony HD recorder works, but reacts very slow.

I have read all articles on this forum about the problems with sony devices and I have tried all possible solutions, but nothing works.

Pls advice me what to do.

  Likely the problem you are seeing is that the Sony control syntax is a bit of an odd duck. These codes are sent in sets of three iterations of a single command string. When you capture your code, you will see that there are multiple lines of data held in the center window of iLearn. In this position, manipulation of the Gaps setting in the top right section of iLearn will alter the amount of data which is highlighted in the center window, which alters how much data will be saved. Likely, a quick change of the Gaps setting to 3 will highlight the correct amount of data for your Sony hardware, and should give you a functional code. If this does not work, I have linked the FAQ page for alteration of Sony commands for proper function. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

  Hi Broc,

   

  Thanks for your answer. It took me a lot of time to understand what the best gap time should be, but it works now.

  Is it possible to change the iLearn program, so that it is possible to enter a given gap time automatically, when the frequency is > 1?
