Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Hi

Can the BCR send the values 16284 (0x7f1c MSB/LSB) to 100 (0x0064), ie 
via 0? 

So in effect 16284 to 16383 (0x7f1c to 0x7f7f) then 0 to 100 (0x0000 
to 0x0064)

The various combos I've tried (with BC-Edit and BCFREdit) result in 
100 to 16284 or that in reverse, 16284 to 100.

Why?

Because the parameter values on the Alesis Micron that have a - to a + 
range map to these values! You can use two separate encoders; 0-100 
and 16284 to 16384 (giving +0 to +100 and -0 to -100 respectively). 
But it would be cool to do it with 1!

Hello to everyone...since i am new to this group (i bought a used 
bcr2000 for my alesis micron) and i don't want to start a new 
question,I just updated this question...Is there any progress?
Also if it is not possible i would appreciate an answer!
Thank you very much,
Sakis

I tried to make a trick the past few months while i was trying to find
a way to control the alesis micron...I found out that it respondes to
a standar CC command but you have to push a button first containing the
nprn you yant to change...so with one encoder you can change the
parameter assigned to the latest pressed button...
...so i was looking for something easier,but thank you for your
reply...sorry for my bad English,
