Many folks seem to forget to read the template instructions carefully enough. For question 7, it says:
7. Checked the file section?
This is more of a checklist item than a real question. The assumption is that you have checked the file section to see if someone else has created an upgrade for this device but didn't find one. Please provide more details if this is not the case. AND REMEMBER, you don't always need to find the exact model that you have as many manufacturers use the same codeset for all models of a device.

If you have tested the upgrades for similar models and they didn't work, please say so in your post. If you found an upgrade that partially works, please post a link to it. DO NOT refer to upgrades by the setup code number that was used as this is meaningless.
There are about 50 various Yamaha Audio device upgrades in the file section. Have you tried ANY of them? or did you just look for your particular model?

I have tried upgrade for Yamaha YSP-800, assuming that it is closest thing technologically. Didn't work. No surprise here - it's different model line. YAS is new kid on the block, so it is even hard for me to guess which device it could be compatible with, remote-code-wise. YSP line are closest relatives from what I could tell, but apparently not that close. Is it possible to find good candidate among Yamaha devices by remote #? My Yamaha remote has some numbers on it: FSR10 WM16510
