This remote control was Custom Programmed for you by:
Custom Programming of a complex home theater and/or a multi-room system is one of the most challenging tasks within an audio/video installation. It involves an intimate knowledge of how the components interact and exact details on the proper sequences of control.
Only a Complete Control dealer has the requisite experience and training to quickly and effectively cus­tomize a remote control for true automated operation.
Congratulations on your choice!

MX-6000 TWO WAY TOUCH SCREEN
Congratulations
You’ve purchased a unique synthesis of hardware and software engineer­ing, the Complete Control MX-6000. The twin goals of the design team were to improve the elegance and usability of touch screens through the physical design while providing a new standard in brightness, clarity and animation for the touch screen itself.
Easy Operation
By assigning the important home theater operational buttons to the natural resting place of the end users thumbs, the MX-6000 achieves a new standard in use and comfort.
Automatic Backlighting
The integral motion sensor detects any movement of the touch screen and automatically backlights the screen. You do not have to press any button to display the screen. Any movement of the MX­6000 renews the backlighting. To adjust the backlighting, see page
11.
Programming the MX-6000
To fully automate an audio/video system and integrate two way automation of servers etc. the programmer must have a detailed knowledge of each component, LAN configuration, WiFi optimiza­tion and how the system is connected and operated. Only a trained and certified professional audio/video installer can install an MX­6000 automation system in a timely and efficient manner.
Integrated Stylus
Stowed away in the top right hand corner storage slot, is a custom made stylus for your convenience.

Connecting the Battery Pack
Unlock the rear cover by pressing down on the two locking tabs and sliding the battery cover forward.
Remove the cover. For shipment from the factory, the battery is left out of the MX-6000. Place the battery into the battery compart­ment, making sure you align the contacts on the battery to the con­tacts on the MX-6000. The battery will snap into place when aligned properly.
Replace the cover and snap it into place.
Using the Charging Base
Plug the 6V DC adapter into a power outlet and into the back of the charging base.
Gently place the MX-6000 into the cradle of the charging base. It automatically aligns itself to the contacts on the charging base.
The Status light should imme­diately light. Red indicates that it is charging. Blue shows that it is fully charged. There is no harm in leaving the MX­6000 on its charging base whenever it is not in use.
Two Way via WiFi
To use the MX-6000 with any two way companion product, the MX-6000 must be configured by your installer to be part of a LAN (local area network) via a WiFi b/g access point or router. This is not user configurable. If you have any questions, consult with your custom installer.
Red indicates charging, Blue that the remote is fully charged.

MX-6000 TWO WAY TOUCH SCREEN
Optional RF “No Rules” Operation
In combination with an MSC-400 Master System Controller, or an RF Base Station, the MX-6000 can control your system without being in line-of-sight of the equipment.
The MSC-400 enhances the capabilities of the MX-6000 by storing and issuing Smart Macros to your main system components. It is triggered by RF Smart Macro commands via RF (radio frequency). In addition, your MX-6000 can control components in secondary rooms and systems via MRF-350 or MRF-260 RF base stations.
4. Self-adhesive “Flashers” affix to the Infrared sensors on the front panels of your components. Uniquely, all Complete Control base stations can also connect to components with rear panel IR Inputs via adjustable IR Line Outputs. The MSC-400 offers RS-232 control via rear panel connections as well.
3. The MSC-400 can control IR, RS232 and Relay con­trolled devices.
1. The MX-6000 sends radio waves in every direction, so you don’t have to point the remote anymore!
2. The RFX-250 RF Sensor can be freely positioned for optimal recep­tion.
