Tx-8511 Doesn't Respond To Remote

I dropped my RC-329S remote on the floor and the receiver stopped responding to it.  I got two different replacement remotes, and the receiver doesn't respond to either of those.  Using the camera on my phone, I could see that the remotes were outputting a signal, so I think the problem is on the receiver side. Is it possible that when I used the damaged remote on the receiver, it somehow scrambled it by sending weird sequences?  Is there a way to reset the receiver? Any other possible causes? Thanks in advance for any help.  I'm really puzzled.
