Old Remotes are supported by all Dune HD player models. New Remote v1 is supported by all Dune HD models starting with Dune HD Base 2.0. New Remote v2 and Small New Remote are supported by all Dune HD models staring with Dune HD Base/Prime 3.0 (old models require the latest firmware).
NOTE: Both kinds of Old Remote (Silver and Black versions) have overlapping IR codes -- the IR codes as the same for most buttons, but some buttons have different IR codes on Silver and Black versions of Old Remote; the setting "Setup / Misc / Advanced / Remote control kind" allows to specify the exact kind of Old Remote.
Full Power Off Using RC
Full Power Off Using RC is supported for all models starting with Dune HD Base 2.0. These player models have a special setting (Setup / Misc / Advanced / "POWER" RC button) allowing to specify whether the "POWER" RC button should trigger "software standby" or "full power off". It is also possible to perform an emergency "full power off" by pressing and holding the "POWER" RC button for 2 seconds, but this special possibility is not recommended for the regular usage (since this is handled purely by the hardware, and the player can not shutdown properly, such as properly writing all changes to connected HDDs).
Dune BD Prime, Dune HD Center, Dune HD Base models have an unofficial/incomplete support for switching the player off using the RC: this can not be done using Dune HD Remote, but can be done using a programmable remote, by sending a special HEX code to the player (handling of this HEX code is supported by the hardware of the IR receiver, but the Dune HD Remote is not able to generate this HEX code). The HEX code: will be published later.
Discrete Power On/Off IR Codes
Starting with the firmware version 091229_1411_beta, all Dune HD player models have support for DISCRETE-POWER-ON and DISCRETE-POWER-OFF IR commands. These IR commands can not be generated using any Dune HD Remote, and are intended only for users of programmable remotes.
IR HEX codes for DISCRETE-POWER-ON and DISCRETE-POWER-OFF commands (NEC protocol, customer code 00 BF):
DISCRETE-POWER-ON 00 BF 5F A0
DISCRETE-POWER-OFF 00 BF 5E A1
The player handles these DISCRETE-POWER-ON and DISCRETE-POWER-OFF IR commands exactly the same way as the standard POWER IR command (generated by the "POWER" RC button on the standard Dune remote), with the only difference that DISCRETE-POWER-ON is ignored if the player is already switched on, and DISCRETE-POWER-OFF is ignored if the player is already switched off.
Dune HD models starting with Dune HD Base 2.0 support both entering/exiting software standby mode and performing full power-on/off using these DISCRETE-POWER-ON and DISCRETE-POWER-OFF IR commands. (The behavior is determined by the "POWER RC button" setting.)
Previous Dune HD models support only entering/existing software standby mode using these DISCRETE-POWER-ON and DISCRETE-POWER-OFF IR commands.
Forcing power-off
Dune HD models starting with Dune HD Smart/Max/Duo can be forced to perform full power-off by pressing and holding POWER RC button for 5 seconds; in this case, the power-off is forced by the hardware and the software has no chance to handle it (e.g. write unchanged data to disks etc), so it should be used carefully (e.g. when the player hangs up). The recommended way to put the player into full power-off mode is to configure POWER RC button to do full power-off. If POWER RC button is configured to enter software standby, the following alternative approach can be used: first press POWER RC button and wait for the player to enter standby mode; then press and hold POWER RC button for 2-3 seconds, and then release it -- this will trigger full power-off with proper software handling.
Dune HD Base 2.0 and Dune HD Base/Prime 3.0 can be forced to perform full power-off by pressing and holding POWER RC button for 2 seconds; in this cas the power-off is forced by the hardware; so it should be used carefully (see above).
Automatic power-on mode
Dune HD models starting with Dune HD Smart/Max/Duo do not boot automatically when the power is connected. Instead they are put by default into hardware standby mode, and wait for the user to explicitly request power-on.
Dune HD Smart D1/B1/H1 (latest batches only, shipped starting with June-2011, serial number on the unit should be ASD1LHVAA***1123***00001 or greater), Dune HD Lite 53D, Dune HD TV-101/301 models can be reprogrammed to boot automatically on power-on. This possibility is helpful when the player should be used in "Digital Signage" (Dune HD Network) mode, and it can also be helpful in some other cases. Reprogramming affects the flash memory of the microcontroller which is responsible for power on/off handling, and can be done in the following way:
- Put the unit into hardware standby (full power-off) mode.
- Carefully direct the RC onto the IR eye.
- Carefully press the following sequence of RC buttons: P, O, W, E, R, 1, ENTER
- The unit should LED-blink once. If the unit does not blink, try again
several times. If it does not work, it means the unit has an old version
of the MCU firmware and auto-power-on mode is not supported by the unit.
- To disable auto-power-on: the same, but press: P, O, W, E, R, 0, ENTER
Dune HD Max/Duo models can not be reprogrammed to boot automatically on power-on.
