RFX-250i INSTALLATION MANUAL
Overview - Compatibility
The RFX-250i is a 433MHz RF receiver. It connects to an MRF-350, MRF-350i, MSC-400 or an MSC-400i. It is not compatible with all URC remote controls. It is only compatible with “I” series remote controls, which transmit at 433MHz.
Connections
Optimizing Range and Reliability
1. Power on all AV components, dim all dimmers to 50% and power on anything that may create RF (particularly devices with high speed microprocessors or hard drives). Observe the RF LED of the RFX-250i by cupping your hand over it. If it is glowing or flickering you must relo­cate the RFX-250i. If you cannot relocate the RFX-250i, try removing its antenna.
2. Once you have found a location that is absolutely clean with everything on, test to see if the range is adequate and that macro reliability is perfect. Start with the antenna angle set to 45 degrees and positioned so that the long side of the antenna is facing the customer’s favorite seating position.
3. When testing, set both the remote and the MRF/MSC to the same VALID RFID#. Keep in mind that zero (0) is not a valid RFID#. Watch the STATUS LED on MRF/MSC - it should light every time you press a button on the remote. This will tell you that the signal was received and understood. Ignore the RF LED on the RFX-250i (it only indicates that a signal was received, not that it was understood).
4. If the range is inadequate, you may extend wire to any area that is not giving good results and place an additional RFX-250i in that area. Up to three RFX-250i’s can be connected to each MRF/MSC.
NOTE: The RFX-250i is ONLY compatible with additional RFX-250is. You cannot mix RFX-250is in a system with RFX-250is.
When the RFX-250i can be placed within 10 feet of the MRF/MSC unit, you can utilize the cable with 3.5 mm plugs on both ends. When you need a longer wire or are connecting up to three RFX-250i’s, use a cable with a minimum of three conductors. If you use CAT 5,utilize two conductors each from two of the twisted pairs for DATA and two from the other twisted pairs for 5V. Use all four of the other conductors twisted in with each pair for GND.This provides better shielding and conductivity for long runs.
Connect ONE (only) of either of the RFX­250i’s RFOUTconnec­tors to ONE (only) of either of the RF IN connectors on the MRF or the MSC.
Once the RFX-250i is correctly connect­ed, the POWER LED lights.
If the RF LED lights, the RFX-250i must be moved to a new mounting location. It is receiving in-band RF INTERFERENCE.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the lim­its for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equip­ment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful inter­ference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiv­er. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Warning
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
Note : The manufacturer is not responsible for any Radio or TV inter­ference caused by unauthorized modifications to this equipment. Such modifications could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
