0 AHA Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 You could create a basic serial driver in less than 30 minutes in the driver wizard of composer. All the codes are listed in the doc. Power on: $be $ef $10 $05 $00 $c6 $ff $11 $11 $01 $00 $01 Power off: $be $ef $10 $05 $00 $0c $3e $11 $11 $01 $00 $18 HDMI 1: $be $ef $10 $05 $00 $e3 $7f $11 $11 $01 $00 $73 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 L0gicpro Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share Posted December 17, 2018 That worked for Power On/Off. For some reason the input codes don't seem to take. Thank you for your response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 AHA Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Thats because i typed it wrong. Managed to read it from two line HDMI 1: $be $ef $10 $00 $05 $3a $3e $11 $11 $01 $00 $50 HDMI 2: $be $ef $10 $00 $05 $23 $be $11 $11 $01 $00 $72 HDMI 3: $be $ef $10 $00 $05 $e3 $7f $11 $11 $01 $00 $73 From those examples you should be easily able to work out the others from the doc. Read each line from left to right and where you have two hex codes together read them from right to left. So 0xffcc put this in the driver as $cc $ff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 L0gicpro Posted December 17, 2018 Author Share Posted December 17, 2018 I did notice your error on the initial code and just followed your example of using the "$" as a hex place holder. For some reason, the projector just isnt listening to the input codes. All my input codes look just like the ones you just replied with.

0 AHA Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Try something else like mute or a direction button and see if it responds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
