I finally had time to sit down and do some more testing with the beam. It took me a little while to get it narrowed down.
I'm finally able to get good compressed codes, here are the settings that I used,
Lock Min: 400
Lock Max: 2200
Noise: 8
Equal +/-: 4
lock min was the big key to get the compressed code. I was doing my original testing with my Lock Min set to 100.
thank you for your help as always!

« Last post by PegLegTV on December 17, 2022, 06:05:18 PM »I thoguht I was running the most recent version but I was running version 2.3.0.3, so I update my laptop to 2.3.1.1, when doing so I had an error pup up
I clicked ok so the update would continue, so I could do some more testing with the beam plugin.
is this what I need to download Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package MFC Security Update to fix the above error? (this is a new Laptop)
after the update I didn't see any difference in the code output, so I made the adjustments to noise(5) and equal +/- (10), this causeed multiple codes (data) to be collected but did show compressed codes, none of them worked. so I played with the settings and the only way to reduce the amount of raw codes being detected was setting noise at 9, but none of the compressed codes worked on my laptop. Ill have to do more testing (posibly Monday).
while doing some testing with the beam pluggin I also got this error
it didn't cause any problems so I'm not sure what caused it or what it means exactly, it popped up while click the RF buttons to test the compressed codes (maybe I clicked the next RF button to fast)

BEAM IR/RF Wifi transceiver / Re: BEAM documentation / news
« Last post by jitterjames on December 17, 2022, 10:45:21 AM »normally noise should be set lower (maybe 5) and increasing the "Equal +/-" to about 10 is going to help your compressed codes. You see your values of 38, 41, 40, 42. Those are probably all the same duration and the Equal +/- will allow VC to see that they are all the same and change them all to the average of their values. So they will all be set to something like 40, and then replaced with a letter.

« Last post by Kalle on December 16, 2022, 02:50:16 PM »Thanks for all the info.
If the second code was work for you, it is easy to shorten all you codes without an math or regec or what ever.
The only thing you have to do - take a look where is the large number is and cut it out to the last number before the next similar large number starts (include thecomma at the end).
example:
This is your posted raw code and you can see the correct sequence ist starting at green and repeatedly continuous - the red marked is the code is not needed.

« Last post by PegLegTV on December 16, 2022, 02:06:17 PM »I tested both codes that you posted, only the second code worked.
I did some testing with the beam plugin
Beam Settings:
Lock Min: 100
Lock Max: 5000
Noise: 40 (any higher and no codes show up)
Equal +/-: 2
Beam Plugin Raw RF code:
no compressed code.
Note: I would see some occasional compressed codes but when they showed up none of them worked, and neither did the raw code. So as I worked through the remote buttons if I saw compressed codes, the raw code didn't look like other codes that worked, so I wouldn't test it.
I only have one other remote that uses 433mhz (projector screen), and that remote never generated any compressed codes origianly. when I test it now, the raw code is much longer and causes VC to freeze short tearm and the beam to restart, but the raw code does work.
Projector Screen Remote Beam output:
after looking over the code, there are six codes generated, all of them work, the first one is different and the last five are identical. with this remote the projector screen will beap when the button is pressed so I only press the button until I hear the beap which is a quick press of the button.

BEAM IR/RF Wifi transceiver / Re: BEAM documentation / news
« Last post by Kalle on December 15, 2022, 02:22:41 AM »Now that makes me curious - I have a lot of 433MHz remotes and none of them produce such a start frequency. What I mean, your RF code starts with a relatively small sequence of numbers (initial code: 102,134,32,128,36,124,40,122,41, ...), which I have never seen before, no matter from which RF remote control - the initial code always starts with a large number.
I am in the lucky position to test your working code with two BEAM's and the BEAM Plugin (one BEAM transmits, one receives) and have the following result which you could try out.
/sendRFraw?code=1019,69,105,54B129,36DEDEDEE120EFEFDEEFDEEDDEDEEDEFEFCFEFDEEF45BDEDEDEDEFEB248,24DFCEDFEEDFEFEFEFEFEFEFEFEFEFEFEEFEFEFEFE
This is a part of your original code, which i have shortened:
/sendRFraw?code=1201,55,108,52,111,128,36,125,38,124,39,123,40,122,41,41,122,41,121,42,120,122,41,41,121,121,42,41,121,122,42,121,43,40,122,41,121,41,121,42,120,42,120,122,41,41,121,42,120,42,
In the Beam plugin there is the possibility to adjust the noise - try higher values, this will filter the sequences a bit or lower values to see more sequences but a lot of trash.
What surprises me is that you don't get anything in the BEAM plugin under "Compressed Code" when you try to learn the remote control with the BEAM.
