If you are writing software to react on B&O codes, you will enjoy our open-source protocol explaining how to read the textstrings being send from the TT455-RT-238 when detecting a Bang&Olufsen remote control.

Example:
<0001801000128000000165>
< = Start of package
00 = to Computer
01 = from device addressed 01
801 = B&O code detected
027 = Light adr (Par1)
155 = Goto Light Mode command (Par2)
000 = Unused (Par3)
000 = CodeFormat (Par4)
165 = checksum

PAR1/PAR2: Use the 2 * 3-digit combination of Par1 and Par2 from the BEO4's mode buttons to set the current mode:
000128 = TV mode (TV device ID = 000)
027155 = LIGHT mode (Light device ID = 027)
001129 = RADIO mode (Radio device ID = 001)
... etc.

PAR2: And/or use the 3-digit number Par2 to read the required command:
000 = 0
001 = 1
002 = 2
....
096 = volume up
100 = volume down
etc.

PAR4: Instruct about the format of the code.
000 = Normal/most code
001 = VTAPE1
004 = BEO1 remote
008 = LINK mode
