Home simple Pronto RF Code Generator

Rick search has released a free Windows application to create RF codes for the Philips Pronto remote so it can manage the Byron house simple house automation modules.  The Generator will create codes that will work with anything that is compatible with the HE200 remote.

“Three RF protocols are in utilize for the products marketed by Byron.  very first devoted to the HomeEasy Heating controller the second (HE200 remote) to the Byron X10 type gadgets as well as early non ultra HomeEasy gear as well as the third (HE100 as well as HE300 remotes) for all the HomeEasy range.

Protocol very first – (Heating gadget address) is set to the 5 pos dip switch address selected on the device.  This dip setting will be the binary of the number you requirement to go into for the RF code (as per individual manual).

Protocol second – are codes 0 .. 15 (device) as well as 0 .. 15 (group A .. P) you choose, providing 255 possible codes

Protocol third – This has a 26 bit address providing 67 million addresses for every of the 16 units as well as it seems possible that this variety can be doubled utilizing the “grouped” command for every of the 16 system No.(altho with the pronto you can group any type of number of gadgets with a macro).The group command will turn on a dimming gadget without triggering the dimming cycle sequence, as will the dim command.  Byron would appear to allocate at random a different address to every transmitting gadget produced be it a key fob, wall switch, remote etc. The HE100 has two addresses to provide the 32 gadget span.

With so many possible codes it makes sense to stay with as few addresses as you need, each address
operating 16 possible devices.

TIP – The program hashes the name/number went into into the 26 bit address, as well as would suggest  eg “password bedroom 1” is a great deal easier to keep in mind than a number.

The door lock codes have a seperate command, I suppose to make them less likely to duplication however have not been able to inspect this completely not having one to test. comments on this would be appreciated.

Don’t fail to remember to set the gadget residential or commercial property on your pronto to RF 0,0.

The program will ouput your code choice as a text data named “Heasyhex.txt” containing the Pronto hex codes which you can copy/paste as usual as well as likewise a txt data “Heasy.csf” which is a compiler script for utilize with CCFCompiler.exe (available from remotecentral) to produce a CCF file. If CCFCompiler.exe as well as CCFDll.dll are copied to the HEasy generator application folder it will do this for you.”
