Mio Modero® R-4 Remote

Overview

The Mio Modero® R-4 remote provides custom control features, contained in an elegant handheld rechargeable device. The Mio R-4 communicates with a NetLinx master via a wireless ZigBee network, making the Mio R-4 a mobile touch panel device.
Selecting a source device sends a command to the master and runs predetermined events associated with that source. Selecting a macro will run predefined events, which might not be associated with sources listed, then return the device to its previous mode.
You will need TPDesign4 to properly program this device. The application and documentation are available from www.amx.com.

Inserting or Replacing 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. The battery door should slide toward the bottom end of the device.
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.

Mio R-4 Setup

Battery Low Indicator

When the battery charge level is too low to sustain continuous operation, the Mio R-4’s touchscreen will display a popup window reading "Battery Low" as an initial warning, and then a popup window reading "Battery Very Low" to encourage the user to shut it down. The device will then shut down to prevent a total discharge of the battery. To recharge the battery, insert the Mio R-4 into the Mio Remote Charging Base (see Charging The Mio Remote with Charging Base section on page 94).

Installing Supported Language Keypads

The Mio R-4 has the capacity to replace its default English keypad with an optional keypad in one of four languages for Arabic, French, Italian, or Mandarin Chinese readers. To install a new keypad in one of those four supported languages:
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 Mio R-4 in both hands, place your thumbs on the battery door and push up to slide the
battery door free.
3. Remove the battery.
4. Unscrew the 6 screw points indicated in FIG. 3.

Changing the remote timeout

By default, the Mio R-4 will go to sleep at the same time as the selected display timeout if the device is not already in its charging cradle. By disabling this default, the device remains connected to the rest of the ZigBee network while the device is otherwise asleep, and allows a faster response when picked up again. In this mode, the button backlight and the touchscreen turn themselves off after the Display Timeout time is reached, but the remote remains online until after the set Sleep Timeout is reached. After this point, the device will reconnect to the network, but this reconnection will be much faster than if the device were shut off.
1. Select Remote & Display Settings from the Setup Page.
2. Under Display Timeout, use the Up/Down arrows to adjust the timeout period in five-second
increments, to a maximum of 30 seconds.
3. Under Sleep Timeout, use the Up/Down arrows to adjust the timeout period in regular increments, to
a maximum of 240 minutes.
The Sleep Timeout period increments are 0 (sleep timeout disabled, remote will stay active until the battery charge runs low), 3, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes.
4. To disable the default setting and allow separate display and sleep timeouts, press the Sleep on
Display Timeout button. When Sleep on Display Timeout is engaged, the button is green (FIG. 7),
and the Sleep Timeout settings will be greyed out. Press the button again to re-enable the Sleep on Display Timeout function..
FIG. 7 Sleep on Display Timeout - enabled
12
Mio Modero R-4
Device Setup Pages
Make sure to adjust the Sleep Timeout period after disengaging the Sleep on Display Timeout function. From the factory, the default sleep timeout will be set for 15 minutes, but engaging and then disengaging the Sleep on Display Timeout function will reset the period for 0 minutes (will not sleep until the battery charge runs low) because the previous setting will already have 0 for that setting, even though it was not actually used.
5. Select the Back button until you are out of the Setup Menu.
While deactivating the Sleep on Display Timeout function will prevent the Mio R-4 from going offline when the selected Display Timeout time is reached, doing so will decrease the effective battery life. Setting the Sleep Timeout period to 0 will keep the device from disconnecting from the network, but even a fully charged battery will reach a very low point within 10 to 14 hours. If the device’s battery is too depleted, it may need to be returned to the charging cradle and recharged before it can be used again.

Raising and lowering the LCD brightness

Select Remote & Display Settings from the Setup Page.
1.
2. Under LCD, use the Up/Down arrows to adjust the LCD brightness in one-point increments, from a
minimum of 0 to a maximum of 100.
Take care not to set the LCD brightness too low, as the screen may become too dark to read. If you accidentally set the LCD brightness too low and the screen becomes too dark, touch the center right of the touchscreen until the screen brightens again.
3. Select the Back button until you are out of the Setup Menu.

Raising and lowering the charge LED brightness

Select Remote & Display Settings from the Setup Page.
1.
2. Under Charge LED, use the Up/Down arrows to adjust the LED brightness in one-point increments,
to a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 100.
3. Select the Back button until you are out of the Setup Menu.

Setting the Home Hold Time

Select Remote & Display Settings from the Setup Page.
1.
2. Under Home Hold Time, use the Up/Down arrows to adjust the home hold time in one-second
increments, to a maximum of 6.
A setting of 0 has special meaning: it disables the "home" function on buttol hold, allowing the back/home button to operate like other external buttons.

Protected Settings Menu

Overview

Some of the device settings are security sensitive or change the way the device behaves. These are considered Protected Settings. The Protected Settings Menu (FIG. 12) is accessed via the Protected Settings button in the Startup Menu (FIG. 4).

Accessing Protected Settings menu items usually requires a password confirmation (FIG. 13).
When accessing the Protected Settings for the first time, the Mio R-4 will request a password. The default password is 1988. Changing the password after initial access is highly recommended, and choosing to reset the Mio R-4’s system settings to factory defaults will return the password to its default as well.
