SageTCPServer -- chan up / chan down doesn't work

[Spartan]

I am using SageTCPServer in conjunction with iRule to control SageTV from my iPhone. In testing, I have my Sage going thru an HD200. All of the functions (that I have tried) work except for channel up / channel down. The commands sent from within iRule are:

PLM:CHD\x0D (chan down)
PLM:CHU\x0D (chan up)

In the SageTV logs, I see:

Those are not "play mode" commands... Try CMD:CHU (or CHD/VOLU/VOLD)...

Thanks for the quick reply! While I no longer get the exceptions thrown, sage is not functioning the way I want.

What I am looking for is a way to replicate the way that you can jump around quickly in the guide. For example, on the sage extender remote, the channel up/down keys do a page up/down in the guide. The ff/rew keys go forward & back in time by one page, and the skipbk2/skipfw2 buttons go forward and back by a day.

Thanks!

If you look in the Sage documentation, you will see that what they actually use on the remote is something like "ChannelUp/PageUp" or such (i.e. a single command that is not just "ChannelUp"), so just match it with the CMD.

Ok -- so looking at the documentation, i see the compounds commands but they are not consistent. For example, one says

Channel Up / Page Up

and then immediately below it is referred to as

Channel Up & Page Up

Assuming one of these is correct, would my sagetcpserver command then be:

CMD:Channel Up / Page Up\x0D

[Fonceur]

Yes, the commands that I send in my Android app are:

CMD:Channel Up/Page Up\n

and

CMD:Channel Down/Page Down\n
