Yamaha RX-A850 ip control Noob

[Niklas Johansson]

Hi!

My old HarmanKardon AVR260 has been replaced by a Yamaha RX-A850 and now i like to control the yamaha using it's ip control.

I have the protocol and ip commands but i am not shure how to put it to work.

I made a new system that look like this:

System Name:RX-A850

Protocol:TCP Client

Ip Adress:192.168.0.137 (yamaha reciever ip adress)

Remote Port:0

Local Port:5000

Mode:Always On

Idle Timeout:0

Answer Timeout:0

Heartbeat Mode:No Heartbeat

Made a new command and put @MAIN:VOL=Up in Command Value box.

Tried it but nothing happens.

So, how do i proceed?

[Rodrigo Zogaib]

Hi,

The correct is... Remote Port: 50000 and Local Port: 0.

And you should add to each command the Carriage Return (CR) and Line Feed (LF).

like this @MAIN:VOL=Up\x0D\x0A

Regards.

Hi Rodrigo!

Thank's for your reply!

Unfortunately that did not help.

I have control of the reciever using IR but in the end i want to use IP-control and have 2-way communication.

I think i have all IP-codes for control and recieve feedback but i don't know exactly how to use it.

For example, this is the command for volume up = "@MAIN:VOL=Up" without the Quote

And to get feedback, this is the command  = "@MAIN:VOL=?"

If someone friendly soul have some input to get this going i would appreciate it alot!

Cheer's!

Hi again Rodrigo!

It did work!
I missed to change port from 5000 to 50000, now it work's!

Thank's!

Well, then it's just the feedback to work out :-)

Cheer's

Hi Niklas!

"@MAIN:VOL=?" is a request. You have to create a feedback to process it. Like this!

Cheer's!

[Niklas Johansson]

Work's like a charm!

Great!

Thank you!

[Niklas Johansson]

Now when i have that going i have tried to get a gauge working but with no succes.

I have setup a feedback as you can se in the picture.

The gauge has analog join 1220.

The value i get from the reciever is from -80 to 16

Do i have to process the feedback?
Slider/gauge value is between 0 and 65535.
The only thing i see from the gauge is like it is at zero.

I hope you understand what i mean.

You will somehow have to scale the reply that is returned. I always do it in Javascript, but there might be more native ways.  In essence you must bias the number back (add 80) so it is in the range 0 to 96 in hout case. Then you need to scale the number to be in the range 0-65535.  Assuming X is the number (as a number not a string)) returned, the analog join value would be ((X+80)/96)*65535; or if the returned value is a string then (((strVal-0)+80)/96)*65535. If you subtract 0 from a string value Javascript converts the string to its numeric equivalent.

If you are using normal feedback parsing (not JavaScript), simply enter the min and max (-80 and 16) into the feedback capture group properties.

I'm Laughing at myself, I always know there is a simpler native way that CommandFusion has provided. It's just that I don't know them all, and find Javascript very convenient.

Simple isn't always best practice. You're bringing sexy back better than Justin Timberlake Master Gordon. JavaScript is sexy!

I always jump straight into JavaScript as well, but often the feedback parsing options we provide natively will do the trick!

Thank's Jarrod & Barry!

As you can se in the picture i put serial as data type and becouse of that i did not get the option to fill Min/Max value.
I changed Serial to Analog and now it work's! 

Big thank's to both of you!
