MRX-1 BASE STATION

Introduction

The MRX-1 base station is an “addressable” Network and RF base sta­tion. MAC addressing gives you the ability to use an unlimited
amount of MRX-1’s and allows the control of many identical compo­nents as needed throughout the house. While providing a new con­trol technology it also provides the traditional RF ID addressing. All
URC products can be integrated with a MRX-1 either by software or
by using an optional accessory. The MRX-1 is compatible with URC
Narrow Band and Network Controls.

3. Self-adhesive “Flashers” affix to
the Infrared sensors on the front
panels of your client’s compo­nents. The Flashers relay com­mands to components. The flash­ers plug in to the MRX-1 rear
flasher line outputs via their 10
foot cables. The MRX-1 can also
connect to components with rear
panel IR Inputs via its adjustable
IR Line Outputs.

2. The MRX-1 receives commands
from the Network via a WiFi
Router/WAP; or over an option­al RFX-250 or RFX-250i.

1. The MX-5000 sends radio waves (WiFi or Narrow Band RF) in every
direction, so you don’t have to point the remote anymore!

MRX-1 BASE STATION

Features and Benefits

The Bridge for Network Remotes and Keypads

The MRX-1 enables IR and RS-232 devices to be controlled by URC
Network Controls. Via the optional RFX-250 or RFX-250i, tradition­al Narrow Band RF remotes and keypads can also control the same
IR and RS-232 devices.

2-Way RS-232 Thermostats, Security Systems, Home Theater AVRS
and Multi-Zone Matrixes

Via the unique URC 2-Way database installers can drag and drop
2-Way pre-programmed modules into any URC Network Control
powered by the MRX-1’s two RS-232 ports. RS-232 components
can display Volume Pop Ups, Status displays, Tuner Modules, 2­Way Transport Controls, etc.

Whole House URC Lighting via RFTX-1

Via the RFTX-1 transmitter, the MRX-1 can relay commands from
any URC Network Control to URC Lighting devices. By installing
multiple MRX-1/RFTX-1 relay stations around a home, installers can
create seamless coverage of any size house, allowing lighting paths
and whole house scenes.

Utilize MRX-1 Sensor Port to Automate TOAD Devices

The MRX-1 offers URC Network Controls automation capability for
devices that do not have discrete codes. It is equipped with a sen­sor port compatible with optional URC video or voltage sensors,
thus an installer can program macros that test whether a device is
on or off before issuing input commands etc.

Control Devices with Relays

URC Network Controls can control lifts, screens etc. via the MRX­1’s NO, NC or Momentary set of contacts.

Network Installation and Control

1. Connect the Ethernet cable (RJ45) to the rear of the MRX-1 and
into the network router.

2. Open the CCP editor.

3. Select Program then Configure Home.

4. Add a MRX-1 base station and the properties window opens.

5. Either type in the MAC address which can be found on a sticker
located on the bottom of the unit or click on the Discover but­ton.

6. The Discover window opens to reveal a list of connected MRX-1
units. Highlight the preferred MRX-1 MAC address and select
Apply. The Discover window closes.

MRX-1 BASE STATION

The MRX-1 is a network base station that allows full control of your
components. Once installed to the network, press a button on the
remote to send a command via WiFi over the customer’s network.
The MRX-1 receives and sends IR, RS232 and Relay commands to
the devices you specify. Note that the MRX-1 sensor can only be
utilized by URC Network Controls.
