Project: Palm TX Remote Control

Hi, Folks.
I watch DVDs on my TX using an app called TCPMP. I can control TCPMP using an IR keyboard. I'd like to transfer control to a BS2.
Using another Palm app, I captured these codes from the keyboard:
0132 0000 0008 = Up
0133 0000 0008 = Down
0134 0000 0008 = Left
0135 0000 0008 = Right
0136 0000 0008 = Confirm
As a test, I initially wrote:
Begin:
SEROUT 0, 16468, [noparse][[/noparse]0136,0000,0008]· '(This is the code for Confirm or Pause/Play).
PAUSE 5000
GOTO begin
I've since tried (what seems like a bazillion) other things.
Attached to P0 is an IR LED in series with a a 220 ohm resistor. I have confirmed that the TX is receiving *something* via the IR port (using yet another app), but the TX either ignores the code or acts like it doesn't know what·to do with it. I suspect that I haven't hit on the correct syntax/content/format, but I've run out of tihngs to try. Any clues/ideas/suggestions will be much appreciated.

The reason we're all here, is because we're not all there.
