Why won my learning remote control learn my ACME 5000 tv set ?
There could be several reasons why your learning remote might not learn your other unit’s remote commands. First, when you attempt to teach the Yamaha learning remote the command, does the transmit indicator light blink twice? If it did, you have used all the memory space within the remote control, even though every button might not be programmed. If the light did not blink twice, try doing it again. If that fails, clear another key that you have already programmed. Then try to enter the command again. If the command was accepted, then your problem is the lack of memory space. Another reason why the remote may not learn is due to the various signal-coding and modulation techniques employed by other manufacturers. Your Yamaha remote is compatible with most other Japanese brands. But there are no universal standards among manufacturers with respect to remote control compatibility.
