sony tv discrete off code help please (pronto ru940)

hi guys,
I've posted this over on the remote central website but I'm not having too much luck so far. so i thought as my tv is a uk model i'd post here and see if anyone has found the answer to this problem.
I have used the discrete code as below, but i cannot get my TV(kv32fq86 UK model) to switch off using this code, is there anything else i can try? the Ir indicator blinks but thats it!! the discrete on seems to be OK?
cheers,
Rich

Dont know about a specific code , but as a work round you could programme the discrete on code you have , followed by a short pause , followed by the standard standby button .
So long as the "On" code does nothing whe the set is on , it should work.

cheers john.
I want to avoid the work around if posible, I'm sure rapidly switching the set on then off won't do it any good, long term?

 

If it truly is a Discrete ON code , then the TV will just ignore it .
Have you tried any other Sony discrete codes, for another Sony TV ? They tend to be standard across the range , Something might be listed under a different model

Good luck
John

 

this is true but if the telly is already off, it'll switch on then back off again, I'm sure that won't do it any good? my next step is to try all the Sony codes i can find. but that might take me a while!!

 

Take a look at this thread:

On my Sony TV, the power button on the remote is essentially a discrete off.
The teletext off button (the empty square symbol) is essentially a discrete on, except that if the set is already on it will display the channel number you are watching for a few seconds. No problem really.

I have a Marantz RC9200 (pronto clone) and all my macros work perfectly using these functions.

 

cheers Jules
any chance you can post the hex code for that command?
thanks
Rich

thanks mjn,
but this is the standard command code 21 for power, unfortunatly its not a discrete off.

thanks jules,
this is the command code 47 which is the standard sony discrete off code but it doen't work with my set.
this is so annoying, the old av discrete codes work fine but not the important off command

all sony command codes here

 

No, that code i posted is discrete off, as i use it with my Sony TV!

 

sorry mjn. i came to that conclusion after trying it, it switched my set on and off! also i have used the pronto ir tool to decode/uncode the hex code and it says its the standard command code 21 for power as listed on this website. all i can think is that sony have messed something up!
