For questions about your Custom Programming call:

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 Total Control dealer has the requisite experience and training
to quickly and effectively customize a remote control for true
automated operation.

Congratulations on your choice!

The TRC-1280 comes equipped with a Lithium Polymer battery that is

money on disposable batteries or trying to locate misplaced batteries.

Requires MRX-10 or compatible URC Advanced System
Controller

In combination with an MRX-10 or compatible URC Advanced
System Controller, the TRC-1280 can control your system without
being in line-of-sight of the equipment by sending the commands
over your home network.

Programmable only by URC certified professional programmer
on-premises or off-premises via the Internet

To fully automate your audio/video system, the programmer must
have detailed knowledge of each component, LAN configuration,
Wi-Fi optimization and how the system is connected and operated.
With the ability to connect the TRC-1280 to an MRX-10 or
compatible URC Advanced Controller, your installer can program the
remote, with your permission, from his office should the need arise.
Only a trained and certified professional audio/video installer can
install a TRC-1280 remote control in a timely and efficient manner.

top of the cover. Remove the cover. For shipment from the factory,
the battery is left out of the TRC-1280. Place the battery into the

battery to the contacts on the TRC-1280. 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 TRC-1280 into the cradle
of the charging base. It automatically aligns
itself to the contacts on the charging base.

leaving the TRC-1280 on its charging base
whenever it is not in use.

To use the TRC-1280 with any two-way companion product, the
TRC-1280 must be configured by your installer to be part of a LAN

user configurable. If you have any questions, consult your custom installer.
