=== Documentation ===

No documentation yet.  Sorry.
Runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS.  No recent testing has been done on Windows or Linux.
Roughly put.. you need to be able to run Perl programs, and you need a serial connection between your computer and the receiver.
* rxv2400server.pl is the main program.
* webControl contains the web elements, but you'll need a webserver with php support for this.

=== Enhancement ===
Yamaha has some pdf files floating around on the internet that document the serial control commands.  You'd need these to make it work with a different model.  First, because it might be good to make sure the command numbers are all the same; but more that the model ID is hard-coded in the code so it doesn't make a mess by sending incorrect instructions to a different model receiver.  There are two files per receiver, "standard" and "extended".  Neither is a subset of the other.  Here's one that I managed to track down to give you a start tracking down the others.
