Default How to get at "menu" on Sharp TV set without its remote?

Or is there a way to fake the proper remote say by using the RS232 port on
my PC to drive an IR LED and a program that causes it to produce the
correct on/off sequence of pulses to make the TV think it's seeing the
proper remote (looked all over the web but didn't find this)?


Sure. How will you know how to do this?


If you want to play McGuyver that's up to you but, if you'll go to
Walwart and pick up the One for All 4 in one remote, use code 0093,
I'll gurantee it'll work or you have a bad remote sensor or didn't
program it right. I use one in my shop to check repaired units and I
know that one will work fine.
