Well it does seem to have an RC-6 the mode, ir-keytable says:

Found /sys/class/rc/rc0/ (/dev/input/event4) with:
	Driver imon, table rc-imon-pad
	Supported protocols: RC-6 	Enabled protocols:

'ir-keytable -c -w /etc/rc_keymaps/imon_mce' does enable it, but 
obviously I couldn't test if this works as expected.

I would like another remote primarily because the RM200 is not very 
convenient. Also, with the new imon kernel module, I can't seem to 
receive all keys anymore. I know I could blacklist imon and revert to 
lirc-module-sources but if a Harmony would solve that on the way, I 
wouldn't mind.
