Pioneer dvd-v8000 User Manual

Operating Modes 

 

There are two code types, either a four-digit or eight-digit code (Extension 
code). When the input command data is two words (eight-digit) in length, the 
player truncates or shortens the information.  A truncated code consists of an 
Upper Byte from the first code and a Lower Byte from the second code.  The 
player creates a Returning Code or Double Code from these two bytes. 

 
 

Once the player returns an Input Code, a FFFFh Code (no reactions from the 
remote control) repeats until a new code is sent from the remote control.
