Yamahareceiver Binding

This binding connects openHAB with Yamaha Receivers of product line CX-A5000, RX-A30xx, RX-A20xx, RX-A10xx, RX-Vxxx, RX-Z7, DSP-Z7, RX-S600, RX-S601D, HTR-xxxx.

If your hardware is on the list but still does not work, please fill a bug report!

Configuration

Just use the auto discovery feature or add a thing for the binding manually by providing host and port. Initially a thing for the main zone will be created. This will trigger a zone detection internally and all available additional zones will appear as new things.

When using zones feature, to manually add a receiver, use

Bridge yamahareceiver:yamahaAV:ReceiverID "Yamaha Receiver Bridge Name" [HOST="a.b.c.d"] {
	Thing zone ZoneID1 "Main Zone Thing Name" @ "location" [ZONE="Main_Zone"]
	Thing zone ZoneID2 "Zone 2 Thing Name" @ "location" [ZONE="Zone_2"]
	Thing zone ZoneID3 "Zone 3 Thing Name" @ "location" [ZONE="Zone_3"]
	Thing zone ZoneID4 "Zone 4 Thing Name" @ "location" [ZONE="Zone_4"]
}

If your receiver is using menu-based net radio navigation, you can use this binding to select radio stations from a configured menu.

Features

The implemented channels for the AVR thing are:

• power: openHAB Type Switch, Switches the AVR ON or OFF. Your receiver has to be in network standby for this to work.

The implemented channels for a zone thing are grouped in three groups.

Zone control channels are:

• power#zone_channels: openHAB Type Switch, Switches the zone ON or OFF. Your receiver has to be in network standby for this to work.
• mute#zone_channels: openHAB Type Switch, Mute or Unmute the receiver.
• volume#zone_channels: openHAB Type Dimmer, Set's the receivers volume as percentage.
• volumeDB#zone_channels: openHAB Type Dimmer, Set's the receivers volume in dB.
• input#zone_channels: openHAB Type String, Set's the input selection, depends on your receiver's real inputs. Examples: HDMI1, HDMI2, AV4, TUNER, NET RADIO, etc.
• surroundProgram#zone_channels: openHAB Type String, Set's the surround mode. Examples: 2ch Stereo, 7ch Stereo, Hall in Munic, Straight, Surround Decoder.

Playback control channels are:

• preset#playback_channels: Set a preset. Not supported by Spotify.
• playback#playback_channels: Set a play mode or get the current play mode.
• playback_station#playback_channels: Get the current played station (radio).

• tuner_band#playback_channels: Set the band (FM or DAB) for tuner input when device supports DAB (e.g. RX-S601D). openHAB Type String.

Navigation control channels are:

• navigation_menu#navigation_channels: Select or display the full or relative path to an item.
• navigation_current_item#navigation_channels: Get the current item of the current menu.
• navigation_total_items#navigation_channels: Get the total count items in the current menu.

Example

Basic Setup

For auto linking with Paper UI

Link the items to the channels of your preferred zone (here Main_Zone) in PaperUI after you've saved your items file.

Items:

Switch      Yamaha_Power                "Power [%s]"                <switch>
Dimmer      Yamaha_Volume               "Volume [%.1f %%]"          <soundvolume>
Switch      Yamaha_Mute                 "Mute [%s]"                 <soundvolume_mute>
String      Yamaha_Input                "Input [%s]"                <video>
String      Yamaha_Surround             "Surround [%s]"             <video>

For manually linking

Replace the UPNP UDN (here: 9ab0c000_f668_11de_9976_00a0ded41bb7) with the real UDN provided by your UPNP discovery. Also replace the zone name with your preferred zone (here Main_Zone).

Items:

Note the visiblility rules - you may need to adjust to your particular AVR model supported inputs and features.

DAB Tuner (dual band)

Items:

Number      Yamaha_Preset               "Preset [%d]"               <video>              { channel="yamahareceiver:zone:9ab0c000_f668_11de_9976_00a0ded41bb7:Main_Zone:playback_channels#preset"}
String      Yamaha_Tuner_Band           "Band [%s]"                 <video>              { channel="yamahareceiver:zone:9ab0c000_f668_11de_9976_00a0ded41bb7:Main_Zone:playback_channels#tuner_band" }
String      Yamaha_Input_Ex

The synthetic Yamaha_Input_Ex will be calculated by a rule (see below) and will drive sitemap visibility (see below).

Rules:

rule "Yamaha_Input_Ex"
when
  Item Yamaha_Input changed or
  Item Yamaha_Tuner_Band changed	
then
  var input = Yamaha_Input.state
  if (input != NULL) {
    if (Yamaha_Input.state == "TUNER" && Yamaha_Tuner_Band.state != NULL) {
      input = "TUNER_" + Yamaha_Tuner_Band.state
    }
  }
  Yamaha_Input_Ex.postUpdate(new StringType(input))
end

When the input is TUNER the Yamaha_Input_Ex item will have a value of either TUNER_FM or TUNER_DAB depending on the chosen tuner band, otherwise it will be same as input (Yamaha_Input).

Notice how we have two preset mappings that each is meant for FM and DAB+ bands respectively. This enables to have different channel names per band.
