Hi,
I have managed to get my IR blaster from
www.irblaster.info working with one of my ExpressVu 3100 (Similar to Dish 301) receivers using the tutorial
http://losdos.dyndns.org:8080/public/my ... _LIRC.html. To do this I used the ledxmitd.conf file based on the remote deffinition at
http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/dishnet/SAT_301.
So far all is good, so I want to add a second receiver, and make use of the second receiver on my PVR-500.
I scrolled down to the section in the above tutorial to the section for using multiple receivers. I generated the raw remote for for my second remote address (9) and pased it into the /etc/ledxmitd.conf file below the original one, and called the remote "31009".
I also took the change_chan.sh script and changed the name to change_chan2.sh and changed the remote name from 3100 to 31009.
At this point, after rebooting or restarting the daemon I should be able to change channels on my second receiver, but no go. Receiver 1 (3100) is working fine, but the new receiver isn't (31009).
I have created new ledxmitd.conf where both remote profiles are in rew format, generated by the JVC_RAW script. This caused both to stop working at all.
When I send a command to the change_chan2.sh script here is the response I get:
Code:
#/usr/local/bin/change_chan2.sh 500
/usr/local/lirc-ledxmit/bin/ledxmit-irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE 31009 5
/usr/local/lirc-ledxmit/bin/ledxmit-irsend: transmission failed
/usr/local/lirc-ledxmit/bin/ledxmit-irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE 31009 0
/usr/local/lirc-ledxmit/bin/ledxmit-irsend: transmission failed
/usr/local/lirc-ledxmit/bin/ledxmit-irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE 31009 0
/usr/local/lirc-ledxmit/bin/ledxmit-irsend: transmission failed
versus what happend when I do the original script.
Here is the content of the change_chan2.sh script:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
REMOTE_NAME=31009
for digit in $(echo $1 | sed -e 's/./& /g'); do
/usr/local/lirc-ledxmit/bin/ledxmit-irsend SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME $digit
sleep 0.3 # note, you may have to tweak the interdigit delay up a bit, depending on your DISH receiver model
done
The only thing that I have been unable to figure out is how to use a non-raw file similar to the original one I used for the first receiver, but with a remote address of 9. I have been unable to figure out is how to modify that file so that it sends address 9 for the second remote.
Any thoughts on what could be going on?
Cheers
Victor
