Yamaha RX-V1500 Serial and Control (JYamaha)

[esajesa]

Hey guys,

here's my Serial definition file, Function Script and corresponding GML to control a Yamaha RX-V1500 receiver. By default it sends all values (at change) to all connected NetRemote clients as well. For more info on register names and such, see the JYamaha.lua file, or feel free to ask!

And, in order to follow my earlier naming convention, and to boost my ego, I've named this particular set of functions to JYamaha. (all my stuff is named Jsomething, such as JIMDB, JHTPC etc.. cool eh? :-? )

It could easily be changed to control other Yamaha appliances, I've checked the serial protocol for a few products and they seem quite similar to eachother.

Cheers,
Jens

Jens,

What type of serial lead do you use between G4 and your Yamaha?

Is it 2 -> 2, 3 -> 3, 5 -> 5 or 2 -> 3, 3 -> 2, 5 -> 5

[danward79]

also were should I put your scripts in lua\start up

or just in lua...\

Don't worry, I have found the info I need on the Yam website.

Have you seen all the useful info there? Did you see the Reciever Manager?

Jens, would you mind uploading these to the g4 area?

Sure Mike, I'll try to do that tonight or tomorrow.

Dan, I know we talked earlier, but just for others:

The JYamaha.lua should be in Girder\luascript and is loaded automatically by the serial device file.


I'm gonna add a few functions to the script, such as requesting the display text, get tuner frequency etc etc.

Mike, take a look at this http://www.promixis.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=12948 post I just made.. I have some issues with receiving from the receiver without init the com-port from a different program first.

Ok, found out what was wrong, it should be working now..

I've updated the Yamaha RX-V1500.lua and JYamaha.lua at the top of the post..

Will put it into the download area later, want to add an example ccf first.

Cheers,
Jens
