box

Thanks for the replies from Colby, Peter and Ron.
I ran SlinkeServ and tried echoing port 0 to port 7 and various combinations
of port configurations and wrote them to RAM and EEPROM each time but at no
time could I seem to get it to work.
I'm using the remote that came with my CDP-CX240 and can see the Sony
commands received when I run CDJ, so I know the port 0 receiver is working
on the Slinke box. How is that remote IR box wired, please? I could pry it
open and check the wiring.
Any more ideas?
