Thanks for the helpful info ekhawaii as I am trying to understand difference between Contour 1 and 2.
My primary concern remains the IR machine codes for the Contour boxes. Am trying to find a Cox cable box that uses the Motorola codes so my existing automation system can continue to control the boxes. Not able to use the hand held remotes as boxes are located in a closet.

When you get a new box, I'm not sure if the old remote will work on it either, but since you don't use the remote....??
For the past few days, there has been a contour1 vs contour2 discussion in the forum. Also, search the forums for answers, or contact COX.
