Yamaha AVR Volume Up / Down

[Germs]

Hey

 

for my Yamaha CX-A5100 AVR when i press the Volume Up or Down button , i always have to press the Button multiple times for it to ramp up or down up to the desired volume. I would like to be able to Hold the Up or Down Button pressed and the the volume raises or lowers. 

 

Is there anyway to do that ? 

Thanks

Does it ramp at all when pressing and holding the volume buttons?

I have come across a few devices which do ramp, but very slow as they ramp in 0.5dB steps.

Which driver version are you using? There are several variations available.

Is it an IP or IR driver?

If IR, it would depend on how the IR code was learned, it might be worth getting your dealer to edit driver and relearn the volume commands with multiple repeats included.

It's the IP driver.

No it's not ramping up. I have to tick the button every time for it to go up. 

 

i don't know which driver version it is , i only have Composer HE so i can't change that . The only thing i found was this :   Control4 certified on 9/8/2015 for software released version: 2.7.2

Didn't you say you were new to c4? That is really old software. Why are you such an old release?

[msgreenf]

As in 2015 old I think.

I'm the End User, not the Installer.... I am just trying to find a solution

you won't find a solution without an installer.  The volume should ramp with a press and hold.  Likely an old driver since you are such an old OS version or it's something the dealer wrote and not something from the database.

No no , i am trying to help the installer find a solution . I have to say though i am quite happy with his performance , but if we arrive up to a point where he doesn't know the solution i try to help him and let him know what to change. That's what i am doing here. I already sent him the email with driver screenshot and he said he would take a look tonight , so we hopefully get this straightened out.

 

However one thing you wrote strikes me. When you are writing old OS version , do you mean the Driver or do you mean the Setup of the EA1 ? How can i find out which Software version i have ?

oh wait, i am sorry, i misread your post - you said that driver was certified for OS 2.7.2. I mis-read that as you were running OS 2.7.2

You should be running OS 3.1.0.  You can find the version of Control by going to settings and selecting your system in the mobile app

yes , that's what i figured. No then it's correct . i am on 3.1. just the driver was for 2.7.2

I have the same issue with a brand new installed EA-1 and the online version of the driver for Yamaha CX-A5100.
It's the certified driver version "1" from 2015.

There is a new MusicCast version of the driver which is not used when just selecting the discovered device.
Does anybody know the difference? Does the volume ramp work with that version?

I have a similar issue with RX-Z Yamaha model via RS-232. Volume control is delayed by a few seconds. 

Do you have "Volume Ramp Delay-Milliseconds", "Command Delay-Milliseconds" & "Event State Polling Delay-Seconds" set in the IP driver?

[Marcus_R]

I am using IP driver.

Yes, the default values are set.
