Inserting the Lithium-Ion Battery Into The Mio R-4
To install your Lithium-Ion battery into the Mio R-4:
1. Flip and turn the Mio R-4 so that the buttons are facing away from you and
the device is upside down.
2. Holding the device in both hands, place your thumbs on the battery door
and slide the battery door free.
3. Connect the terminal end of the Lithium-Ion battery to the port shown in
FIG. 2. It may be necessary to use a thin, blunt non-conductive object to
seat the battery connector fully within its port. (Note: Make sure that the
battery wires run alongside the battery in the compartment as shown in
FIG. 2. Otherwise, the wires may be damaged or the battery door may not
close properly.)
4. Replace the battery door, and slide it to lock it in place.
Installing a Supported Language Keypad
1. Remove the battery door (See Inserting the Lithium-Ion Battery Into the
Mio R-4) and remove the battery.
2. Unscrew the 6 screw points.
3. Turn the unit over so the buttons are facing you.
4. Lift the top assembly away from the PCB.
5. If necessary, push out the standard buttons from the front of the top assembly.
6. Drop in your language pad and verify the alignment with the guide posts on
the PCB.
7. Place the top assembly back down on the PCB and return the unit over,
exposing the 6 screw points.
8. Tighten the 6 screw points.
9. Reinstall the battery, replace the battery door, and slide the door to lock it in
place.
Using the Programming Jack on the Mio R-4
The programming jack located on the back of the Mio R-4 (FIG. 2) is used for
communication between the device and TPDesign4. The programming jack
uses a CC-USB Programming cable, USB to mini USB (FG10-5965). You can
order the programming cable from AMX if you do not have one. While loading
your configuration file, make sure the device is situated in the charging cradle.
1. From the System Settings page of the Protected Settings Menu (see
Protected Settings), set the Master Connection to USB.

Mio Remote Charging Base
The Mio remotes are complemented with the Mio-RCC charging base. To
charge the remote from the charging base:
1. Connect the terminal end of the power supply to the bottom external
power port on the Mio remote charging base.
2. Route the cable through the provided channel so that it comes out the
side of the base.
3. Connect the power cord to an external power source.
4. Place the bottom of the Mio R-4 into the charging base so the contacts on
the device are on top of the charging contacts inside the charging base.
The Power LED on the Mio R-4 blinks red to indicate it is charging and
illuminates solid red when it is done. A full charge cycle for a depleted
battery is approximately 3 hours.
Note: Due to the wireless nature of the ZigBee network, temporary interference
may prevent a command from reaching the NetLinx master. If this happens
while increasing volume, the master may receive the command to increase the
volume but not the command to stop increasing it. Therefore, programmers
should consider setting safeguards for volume control, either established
volume limits or timeouts with the NetLinx master or more interactive
adjustment from the Mio R-4 (i.e., direct volume control), to prevent issues with
lost commands.
