I did this many, years ago. I just ran through all the devices my remote had until one of them tripped the shutter. Range was pretty poor in my case, worse than one of the $2 ebay IR remotes, but your remote may do better.

Here's a user who had success with the code for a sony vcr (which I think is what I used):

and another (also sony vcr):

Tedious but some times necessary. See these links and threads: https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/115-pentax-k-5/176290-wireless-sutter-tv-remote.html Pentax DSLR Remote : Find the code
