Motorola DCH6416 DVR via RS-232

rynando · January 2010

Does anyone have any experience controlling Motorola DVR/STBs via their serial ports? I have a DCH6416 here and it's got a serial port on the back. Apparently people with TIVOs have controlled similar Motorola products via the RS-232 port before however I've been unable to locate any info on the protocol.

Thanks,
R

Step one is to verify that your local cable company has the port enabled. Comcast here does not (along with most the other ports of the back).
