IR-RC5 Definition 
How is the RC5-Code constructed? 
RC5 is the most often used Remote Control Code 
which is also being used by Revox. Each RC5 
codes consists out of 14 BIT, which are successive 
send to the receiver: 
•  2 Startbits (always “1”) 
•  1 Toggel bit (alternating 1” or “0’) 
•  5 Address bits 
• 6 Command bits 
The Startbits are used to synchronize the IR-
Receiver with IR-Transmission. The receiver 
adjusts its amplification settings on to the signal. 
The Toggelbit changes its value with each press of 
a button. That way the long pressing of a button can 
be differentiated from the alternating pressing of the 
same button. 
The address bits define the device. Up to 32 
devices can be controlled. 
The command bits contain the commands of the 
device. Like that up to 64 different commands can 
be send for each device. 
The carrier frequency for each device is 36 kHz. 
RC5-Code of the M208 
Is a device defined as a RC5-Code in the mpi-file the 
address and the command has to be indicated. Start- 
and Toggelbits are generated automatically from the 
M208. Address and commands are indicated in 
hexadezimal digits. 
Syntax: 
Hardkey /Softkey = $ [Address][Command] (hex) 
Examplel: Revox DVD 
  Address DVD:  14 h 
 Command Sound:  2B h 
Sound = $142B  ⇐ Softkeys 
Angle = $141F 
Subtitle = $142D 
Setup = $1435 
. 
. 
NUM_0 = $1400  ⇐ Hardtkeys 
NUM_1 = $1401 
. 
. 
NUM_6 = $1406 
NUM_7 = $1407 
NUM_8 = $1408 
NUM_9 = $1409
