Got this reply from Yamaha. Loved the sentence re: asking for the model/seriel numbers of the cable box and Yamaha remote. That information was included in the initial inquiry that they copied below their reply.
In regards to your question on IR codes. While we strive to keep an
extensive code library, it is not possible to include every single item
from every manufacturer stored in the remote control. The Yamaha
universal remotes are not re-programmable, meaning that their internal
code libraries cannot be updated. The list that is published in the
owner's manual for your unit is the only codes available for your
particular remote. You might wish to try entering some other codes from
the same product category (i.e.; CD players, VCR's, etc.). Sometimes
other codes will work for the unit you wish to control.
Please E-Mail
me the model and serial number of your device that is not working with
the remote and the model number of your Yamaha remote to help solve this
problem in the future. If you have anymore questions please feel free
to contact us
The original inquiry:
have been struggling trying to program the remote RAV248 included
with RX-V650 to get it to operate the cable box. I have been successful
at programing (and removing) other components, including the TV and
DVD.
Do you have any additional codes for the
Scientific Atlanta Explorer
3100 cable box? I tried the 4 in the manual - 0576, 0366, 0586, and
0566.
I am apparently getting a straight through feed when DTV/CBL connected,
as plays on TV, but cable box will not change channels or any other
function. Programed the TV the the double star button, could change
inputs and channels AT THE TV, but cable box is dependent on TV
remaining on channel 3. The channel has to change at the cable box, so
I 'un-programmed' the TV on the double star button.
