MIO R-1 AUDIO

Overview

The MIO R-1 AUDIO (FG147-04) remote provides custom control features, contained in an elegant handheld device, designed specifically for use with Matrix Distributed Audio Systems using Metreau DAS-MET-6SRC and/or DAS-MET-NUM keypads.
The MIO R-1 AUDIO (FIG. 1) controls 6 different device modes, supports 3 macro functions and is capable of executing 219 functions. 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 KeypadBuilder to properly program this device. The application and documentation are available from www.amx.com.
