Is the remote control fully back-lit? If not, what exactly is back-lit? Is it a fully learnable remote?

It is not fully backlit. The LCD display and the middle button along the top row are backlit, but only when other buttons are pressed. It has a learning feature, but I haven't had to use it. I've been able to get by just be entering codes for other devices. But that's mostly unnecessary if your other devices support HDMI control (CEC). For me, I only needed to enter the code for my TV. Oh, this is an excellent receiver. It sounds so much better than the one it replaced. If needed, Yamaha support is excellent as well; they're available 24/7, even on weekends.

Thanks for your question. The remote control buttons are lit from behind them making them easy to see in a dark room. The remote will learn functions from other units. This is a fantastic sounding receiver. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud Yamaha dealer.

It is not back-lit. The remote is programmable, not sure if it is learnable. You can find the users guides online.

Yes my remote has the button on the back. However I have no idea what this button is for, sorry I couldn't help you.

No, the key board is not back lit. It's a nice keyboard if you have small hands.

Yes and no. The unit has a backlight mode. The problem is enabling it requires a two key push button sequence. From that point forward pushing any key briefly illuminates the screen. The unit then defaults back to the unlit mode after some inactive period. I have trouble remembering the key sequence and so can not reliably activate the backlight. Altogether I'd say the key controls throughout this unit are very non intuitive.

I cant tell you exactly because I dont have the manual or remote in front of me. This is a learning remote, meaning you point the original remote at the phillips and it will program specific buttons to functions. Its great for the price. My only complaint is only the top lights up and not the entire remote.

No it's not back lit. I am sorry but I don't know where my instructions are. I have tried it with several combinations and it's not apparent what it's function is.

There is a dimmer on the remote. Also, I use a Logitech Harmony One with mine and it works great. Hope this helps.

It is an Infrared remote that has motion sense backlights. It is then "off" till you press a button, or move it to get the lights to come on. Battery life has been good so far. I got mine on release date and it is still on the first set of batteries with no noticeable signal strength loss.

The back light is strictly manually. However the button is located at the very base of the remote making it very easy to find in the dark. You can find the PDF file of the manual here: http://www.universalremote.com/resources/pdfs/wr7_manual.pdf

Hi Kay....I did purchase this remote, but returned it because it did not work with what I wanted to control. Sorry

Yes. If it's dark, press any button and it lights up, so you can see all of the buttons. The TiVo Button at the top is especially bright. I have to say that this remote is very well made.

From the package of the product, it says Multimedia Remote N5902(non-backlit). I think it should be a non-backlit model, at least from what it says.

This wand is what is known as a "learning" remote and should be usable with almost any consumer electronics device that uses an infrared remote. Infrared remote controls send out a code sequence by flashing an infrared light (which the human eye cannot see) which is received and interpreted by the controlled device; there is a different sequence for each command (button) on your remote. For each motion to which the wand reacts, you "teach" it the command from another infrared (IR) remote control; note that this means you must have the original remote control(s) for the device(s) you will be controlling. If you are not sure if your remote control is IR (most are), look on your remote for a dark red window on the end that normally you point at the controlled device; a bright flashlight may help you see the window. I haven't received the unit yet, but the reviews here report the instructions are very good. There is a very nice web site, thewandcompany.com, with a complete FAQ and videos of the motions to which the remote responds.

Yes the remote controls all, mine stopped controlling the light after one week!

Not from the remote. Remote only turns ON/OFF - so whatever setting your light is on, that's what setting it stays on, while using the remote.

I have to replace my batteries every week. I'm starting to think there is something wrong with my remote after reading these other answers. I've set it so the back light only comes on when I press a button and set it to stay on for the shortest time setting there is and no luck. It didn't make a difference.
