Is it possible to create a PUC for a Beosystem 4 based TV if it is not already available? If so, can you do it your self based on a template? Anyone that knows how to do it?

As far as I know it's not possible to do it by yourself, but B&O can create a special PUC. But I guess for a lot of money.

It is possible if you know what you are doing.

You need to have a good understanding of how IR protocols works in general and of the PUC file syntax. 

Custom PUC files can then be uploaded to the TV using an USB stick.

What box do you need a puc file for, or what do you like to modify on a specific puc file?

For the dealer it is now possible to change the PUC file. There has been software released to change the settings and commands.

I need a PUC file for a Beovision 4. Actually just to turn it on and off with Beosystem 4

The BV4 panels are controlled via RS232 connection. Only the very latest BV4 are supported by BS4. I don't think that a PUC will help you that much.

Why shouldn't a PUC help? All I need it to is to turn the monitor on and off. It works with a Panasonic remote so why shouldn't it work via PUC?

Ok. I wasn't aware of that this trick is possible with all BV4 screens.
I think there is already a Panasonic screen PUC in the database.
If you can't find it with the search function within your BS4 maybe ask your dealer.
