DMP 4400 Remote Control Simulation

Question

Hi,
I need to please know how to send an HTTP MIB request to a certain DMP to simulate a "remote" key click if I don't now have a remote handy. Say I want to test the Yellow button after it is programmed. Can anyone help with the HTTP command string for this example?
Thanks

Answer 1

The Command to change or assign the button to a specific task is
correct.
The Command to execute the RED button is also correct for the DEFAULT
setting (which is "r").   Once you change the assignment to another value
the command (with the "r")  is not correct and will not work.
The "irasrv" is what controls the remote command mappings.  In this example; when
you press RED button, it interprets it and it is what sends to the "xfake" service "r",
which is mapped to the RED press button.  So when you send a command directly to "xfake",
you are completely bypassing the "irasrv".  And there is no way to send a keypress
directly into the "irasrv".
In summary, what this is saying the there is no way to send a command to the "irasrv"
(which is the infrared service for reading the remote control commands).  We can
bypass this service to the next step to simulate the commands using the "xfake" service.
These are the commands in the second discussion thread that I posted.
the DEFAULT "xfake" commands work. But when you change them some may NOT work
based on the values that were changed in the key mappings.
In your case, the CAST string can not be passed in a MIB to the "xfake" service.
This has to do with commands and syntax in your remapped values.
The key mappings  "do" work.  I have tested them with a physical remote without issues.
Cheers!
