Discrete IR codes for 3rd party control

    Thinking of adding a Control4 remote control system. I have a Z10 and a T8.
    In order to integrate any of these systems, you would want to have:

    Power ON (not a power toggle as on the handheld remote)
    Power OFF (not a power toggle as on the handheld remote)
    Also individual selection on the inputs of the Z10

    Also individual selection on the streaming services of the T8

    Is this possible? As i sits right now only "techie" people can operate these pieces, not my wife and not my guests

    I've found some codes for "IR Blaster Remote " on my Smartphone for my T10 (should work for T8 too)
    On = 00 ff 9a 65 - Off = 4d b2 3b c4 - Mute = 4d b2 a9 56 - Menu Back = 4d b2 a3 5c - I2S = 4d b2 5b a4 .
    Also I've 2 for Volume which I did not test (not needed for the T10) Vol1 = 4d b2 01 fe - Vol2 = 4d b2 80 7f .
    If anyone finds some more , please add .

    Thanks for finding these. I have a URC Complete Control remote and the software to program it. Are these the hex or ASCII values? They generally have the IR codes in their database, but believe there’s the ability to import the value. Can’t remember if it’s hex or ASCII but they can always be converted.

    No one can figure out how to turn any of my systems on either. I programmed all the remotes myself and they work beautifully. I missed my calling and should have been a home integrator! I’m too advanced in age as I’m retiring in 3 months and don’t really want another career. I bought a URC Complete Control remote many years ago from a dealer who provided me with the software to program it. They went to a login ID a few years ago and was able to get an end user login to have the ability to change my remote. I am too frugal to pay the fees to have one programmed for me since I change audio equipment too frequently, LOL. It took me 7 years and went through 5 preamps and 5 amps to get at my end game system.

    I bought the iPad version of the software and have my iPad set up to control it as well. Maybe someday after I stop switching audio so frequently, I’ll pay someone to set up 1 Control4 remote for all 3 systems I have in place.

    My endgame streamer and DAC wound up to be an Eversolo T10/Eversolo Z10. Best value for very high performance sound. Very detailed and transparent and they sound great with my Mark Levinson gear.

    This is a fantastic start!!!
    How do you guys switch inputs on the Z10

    Also are these codes for on/off just the transport or the Z10 Dac also. I think the Z10 is different since the remotes provided don't turn on the other box.

    Small rant'

    I can't believe HiFi equipment companies see no value in providing and documenting discrete IR coded for their equipment. Zidoo is not alone in this belief that it is not important

    PS no remote IR code site (including URC) provide any codes for Eversolo or Zidoo brands

    Only Transport T10 and maybe T8 and A8

    I have the PIR remote learner so I learned all the codes off of both remotes into the CCP software. URC is trying to get everyone into Total Control for IP control. For streaming, they only have a couple of useless codes, like BlueSound. They hate end users like me that can make the remote work as intended.

    I use my system for streaming only so my Z10 is always set to USB input for the T10. I got rid of my vinyl in 1996. I ripped all my CDs to my NAS years ago and now have them loaded onto my Roon server. I have at least 4 copies of all my downloaded music that I own so if there’s a drive failure, I have backup.
