Receiver not taking commands from the remote

To program your Yamaha RAV352 remote to your Yamaha RX-V2500 receiver, you can follow these steps:

1. Turn on your Yamaha RX-V2500 receiver.
2. Press and hold the "DVD" button on your RAV352 remote until the "DVD" button lights up.
3. Press the "Code Set" button on the remote.
4. Enter the code "30476" using the number buttons on the remote. The "DVD" button will blink twice to confirm the code has been entered.
5. Press the "Power" button on the remote to test if the receiver turns off. If it does, the programming was successful. If not, repeat steps 2-4 with a different code until you find the correct one.

If you're unable to find the correct code for your receiver using the above steps, you may need to try using the "Auto Search" function on the remote. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Turn on your Yamaha RX-V2500 receiver.
2. Press and hold the "Code Set" button on the RAV352 remote until the indicator light starts flashing.
3. Press the "Power" button on the remote to start the Auto Search function. The indicator light will continue to flash as the remote searches for a compatible code.
4. Once the receiver turns off, press the "Enter" button on the remote to save the code.
5. Test the remote by pressing the "Power" button to turn the receiver back on.

Hopefully, one of these methods will successfully program your Yamaha RAV352 remote to your Yamaha RX-V2500 receiver.

You should have sent a picture of the back. Im taking a guess. Is the open slot big enough to put remote control inside to charge the batteries. If the remote is universal it may need reset. The transmitter in receiver is not working with remote.

I have provided instructions on how to save setting on the receiver and remote plus instructions for learning mode. I hope this helps.

Back Up Remote/Receiver Data

Receiver: 222k and 722k

1. Verify that the customer has an unobstructed LOS and is within 10 feet of the receiver. The customer will need to direct the remote toward the receiver for the duration of the System Wizard setup.
2. Press and hold the number 0 until the pop-up 380 appears on the screen.
3. Verify that the System Wizard says the remote is configured correctly.
4. Select Advanced on the screen.

Teach Learning Commands

Receivers: 222k and 722k

1. Ensure the DISH Network remote control is programmed to the desired remote address to operate the DISH Receiver.
2. Place both the DISH Network remote and the original equipment's remote control on a flat, stable surface.
3. On the DISH Network remote, press and hold the mode button for your equipment for about three seconds until all of the mode buttons light up, and then release it. Your selected mode button will blink.
4. Select the type of learning you wish to perform:
   • Hybrid Mode
     1. Press and release RECALL, then hold the RECORD button for about three seconds until the mode button is lit again. The button remains lit while learning.
     2. Point the front of the original equipment's remote to face the small square (IR window) on the front left-hand side of DISH's remote. Remotes must be within 4 inches of each other.
     3. On the DISH Network remote, press the button you want to teach.
     4. On the original equipment's remote control, press and hold the button you want learned. If the DISH Network remote learns the command, the mode light blinks off and then back on. If the mode light blinks three times or remains lit, the DISH Network remote did not learn the command. You may need to press the button on the original remote several times for the DISH Network remote to learn the command.
     5. After a button has learned a command successfully, repeat steps 3 and 4 until all commands you want have been learned.
     6. To end the learning sequence:
        • Press one of the mode buttons on the DISH Network remote. This saves all of the commands for that mode and exits learning to return to normal remote control operation.
   • Normal Mode
     1. Press and hold the RECORD button for about three seconds until the mode button is lit. The button remains lit while learning.
     2. Point the front of the original equipment's remote to face the small square (IR window) on the front left-hand side of DISH's remote. Remotes must be within 4 inches of each other.
     3. On the DISH Network remote, press the button you want to teach.
     4. On the original equipment's remote control, press and hold the button you want learned. If the DISH Network remote learns the command, the mode light blinks off and then back on. If the mode light blinks three times or remains lit, the DISH Network remote did not learn the command. You may need to press the button on the original remote several times for the DISH Network remote to learn the command.
     5. After a button has learned a command successfully, repeat steps 3 and 4 until all commands you want have been learned.
     6. To end the learning sequence:
        • Press one of the mode buttons on the DISH Network remote. This saves all of the commands for that mode and exits learning to return to normal remote control operation.

hi,
Check the version of the hdmi cable you used. Try to use hdmi cable version 1.3 or above . Also try hdmi cable with version 1.2 .Version of the cable is very important one.
ok

Hi, yes of course it is possible! First off, you have to make sure that your Dish device it set on remote address 1 in order for it to be controlled by the Harmony. Then, once you add the device to your Harmony account, if there are any functions that are missing, you can learn them right from the original remote .

Adding a device:
1. In the software, clcik 'Add Device'
2. Follow the on screen instructions.

Learning a command:
1. In the software, click 'Learn IR' next to the icon for your Dish device.
2. Go down to the bottom of the page where it says 'Learn a new command'
3. Type in a name for your command, and click 'Learn'
4. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Hope that helps you get this set up right!

dont blame the receiver yet, the problem mostly comes from the remote control. it may be the infrared emiting problem. checkout if the infrared in the remote control is emited well. to see this infrared you can read the article at http://www.unique-stuff.co.cc/fixing_remote_control_check_infrared.html

good luck

You need a learning remote or a "Logitech Harmony" or a "Universal Remote Control" (Brand name) Yamaha uses "Discrete Power Commands"
You will not find those in any remote under $70 or $80.00
If you don't want to spend the money, program the Yamaha's Remote to control your devices. It will control all features and functions, it will just take some time to program. Hope this helps

I have seen this type of thing with several remotes.  You have some light source in the room that is interfering with the reception of the ir.  Turn off all light sources in the room and then try.  You might be surprised!

Do you use a Home Theater receiver along with your televison?  Are other components, such as a DVD player, VCR, Blu-ray player, etc. connected?
If so, it's possible that the Mute function on your remote is muting the sound from your receiver, and not the TV itself.
If that's the case, you'll need to look at the details of the "default" buttons for your activities, and see whether the Mute function is associated with your TV or your receiver.  If it's set for the receiver, you need to change it to be associated with the TV.

If this is a recent occurrence, unplug receiver for 20 minutes. This will reset the receiver. If the remote is programmable, reprogram it for the receiver. If you do these steps and it does not work, you need a different remote.
