Yamaha-nodejs

A node module to control your yamaha receiver. Tested with RX-V775, should work with all yamaha receivers with a network interface.

Install

npm install yamaha-nodejs

Example

var YamahaAPI = require("yamaha-nodejs");
var yamaha = new YamahaAPI("192.168.0.100");
yamaha.powerOn().done(function(){
	console.log("powerOn");
	yamaha.setMainInputTo("NET RADIO").done( function(){
		console.log("Switched to Net Radio");
		yamaha.selectWebRadioListItem(1).done(function(){
			console.log("Selected Favorites");
			yamaha.selectWebRadioListItem(1).done(function(){});
		});

	});
});

Prerequisites

• To power on the yamaha, network standby has to be enabled
• The Yamaha reveiver is stateful. Some commands only work work if the receiver is in the right state. E.g. to get web radio channels, the "NET RADIO" input has to be selected.

Methods

var yamaha = new Yamaha("192.168.0.100")
yamaha.powerOff()
yamaha.powerOn()
yamaha.isOn()
yamaha.isOff()

//Volume
yamaha.setVolumeTo(-500)
yamaha.volumeUp(50)
yamaha.volumeDown(50)

//Switch Input
yamaha.setMainInputTo("NET RADIO")

//Basic
yamaha.SendXMLToReceiver()

//Get Info
yamaha.getBasicInfo().done(function(basicInfo){
    basicInfo.getVolume();
    basicInfo.isMuted();
    basicInfo.isOn();
    basicInfo.isOff();
    basicInfo.getCurrentInput();
    basicInfo.isPartyModeEnabled();
    basicInfo.isPureDirectEnabled();
})
    

yamaha.getSystemConfig()
yamaha.getAvailableInputs()
yamaha.isMenuReady("NET_RADIO")

// Single Commands, receiver has to be in the right state
yamaha.getWebRadioChannels()
yamaha.setWebRadioToChannel()

// Chained Commands, they ensure the receiver is in the right state
yamaha.switchToFavoriteNumber() 
    
    

Deferreds

All these methods return a promise:

yamaha.isOn().done(function(result){
	console.log("Receiver is:"+result);
})
