I'm putting together a remote for a Yamaha RX-V671 AVR which was not my choice but its in the system regardless.

Couple of questions.

1.) Is the Vtuner aka internet radio accessible via a discreet command?

2.) will the HDMI sources be accessible to zone 2 without the additional analog cables or do I need to add the analog cables to an audio input and program accordingly?

Thanks in advance.

1. Yes, Yamahas have a discrete for everything.

2. You'll need the additional analog cables.

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!!!!

If you are using URC IR database, Zone2 discrete Power ON/OFF do not work.  Because AVR is in the closet and I know my client would never set his step inside the closet, so I program Zone2 MUTE whenever they want to turn off Zone2.

You can get the codes from Yamaha's PAB site and use their hex converter to put them in URC or RTI.

If you need zone 2 discrete on and off..... use the codes for the RXV2700 zone 2. They do work. I've actually emailed URC this but nothing has happened to update the codes.

Yes one of the models (I can't remember) turns on and off the Trigger 12v by using the Zone 2 ON/OFF codes from URC. I also ended up just muting Z2 for OFF command.

Did you ever get access to the Yamaha pab site Jeff??

Not yet Roddy, I have Vincent on it.
What I needed was to know how the thing worked before sending off the program sheet.

If anybody wants to send the worlds best programmer some work he could use it to pay for damages sustained during the hurricane.
I highly recommend him. http://totalcontrolremotes.com/

I will forward this thread to him with the Yamaha discreet info which he most likely already has but you never know.

Thanks again guys.

Hello everyone i found a discrete Power ON/OFF for the RX-V671 but i'm having the same problem as others mentioned, it also powers zone 2. I have set it up to mute zone 2 but I am still looking for a way to only power the main zone without having to mute zone 2.
Thanks for any help.

I found this thead for the RX-V667 and they work great on the RX-V671 for power zone 2 on and power zone 2 off.

That list only shows NEC codes I believe.

The Hex for zone 2 off should be:

0000 006D 0022 0002 0155 00AA 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 05ED 0155 0055 0015 0E47

The hex code for zone 2 on:

0000 006D 0022 0002 0155 00AA 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0015 0040 0015 0015 0015 05ED 0155 0055 0015 0E47

Thanks again to goldenzrule for posting this info.

For zone 2 discrete power commands just use the codes from the RXV-2700 zone 2 database. They do work! No need to have to paste in hex codes.

Awesome, I never get credit for anything. All I did though is paste the codes available to me. Glad I was able to help.
