Getting Started
Congratulations!
You’ve purchased one of the most advanced and easy to setup control systems available. The MX-350’s built-in library includes thousands of different
brands and models of remote controls. In most systems, all you have to do
to setup the MX-350 is enter which brands and models you own. If you own
a component too new to be in the library, the MX-350 uses advanced learning technology to quickly set each MX-350 button, one at at time. Setting up
your MX-350 to replace all your existing remote controls can be done in a
few minutes. Basic Setup is described on pages 5 to 13.
The MX-350’s exciting advanced features automate and customize operation
in many ways. You could use Macro Setup to power on all of your components and start the show with the press of one button! With the MX-350’s
unique Favorite Channel capability, you can tune in a channel with the
press of one button instead of entering the entire channel number. Any of
the button names on the display can be edited as you like. It is best to
delay any Advanced Setup (described on pages 14 to 36) until after you
finish Basic Setup.
Battery Installation
Remove the battery compartment cover by pressing up the cover lock.
Insert four AAA batteries into the battery compartment as shown in the
diagram.

Selecting a New DEVICE Changes
All Button Commands Instantly
The MX-350 can operate ten different devices even though it is only one
remote control. Let’s try it now! Press the MAIN button, then press the TV
DEVICE button.
The top of the screen changes from MAIN to TV. Now all of the buttons
change their function to operate a TV. Press the page buttons. Watch the
labels of the display buttons change with each press. There are eight pages
of display buttons already labeled for TV operation. To operate another
component (e.g., VCR, DVD etc.), press the MAIN button to return to the
MAIN menu. The MAIN menu displays five of your Devices on the
screen. Simply press one of the screen-labeled Device buttons to operate
another device. If you don’t see the device name you want, then use the
PAGE buttons to display the remaining five devices on page 2 of the
MAIN menu.

Basic Setup
You can start setting up your MX-350 using either the Pre-Programmed
Method or the Learning Method. However, all the buttons of the MX-350 are
setup at once with the Pre-Programmed Method, so it is usually faster than
the one-button-at-a-time Learning Method.
Pre-Programmed Method
Power on the A/V component you wish to setup, so that you can test
codes by sending power off commands.
Refer to the pre-programmed code tables on pages 38 - 59 and
write down the code numbers listed for your A/V component. The
code numbers are listed by categories of devices, then by brand.
See page 37 for a category list.
Press and hold both the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttons for approximately three seconds. The top of the display will show “SETUP”.
You are in SETUP mode now.
Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are in SETUP mode. If
you don’t press a button within that time, the MX-350 will time out and return to
normal operation.

Press the P-PRO button to select the Pre-Programmed Method.
The display changes so that you can select which Device button to
setup.
In this step you choose the name of the device you’d like to setup.
Use the cursor UP or DOWN buttons to change the flashing name.
When it is correct, press the SELECT button.
For Example: I wanted to setup the TV Device button first, so I pressed the
cursor UP or DOWN until “TV” was flashing in the display.
The bottom of the display will flash “FROM TABLE”.
In this step you verify the type of component you plan to operate
with this device button. If the flashing name is correct, press
SELECT.
If the name flashing in the display is incorrect (for example, you are setting up
AUX to operate a Laser Disc Player), use the UP and DOWN buttons to
change the flashing name to the correct type of component.
Note: Each name that appears in the display may include several types of
components. For example, the DVD category includes DVD players and
Laser Disc Players. See page 37 for a list of component types each Code
Table contains.
Point the MX-350 at the component, then enter the first three digit
code number from your notes using the numbered buttons. After
you enter each three digit number, look at the component to see if
it turned off.
Continue to enter code numbers until the component powers off.
For Example: I have a Sony TV. I found the code numbers 070, 139,147,
126, 185, 194 and 085 under Sony in the TV TABLE. Using the numbered
buttons on the MX-350, I entered 070 and looked at the TV. It didn’t turn off,
so I entered 139, then 147 and so on, until I found the code that powered
off the TV.

Note: If a component fails to turn off after you have entered all of the code
numbers listed for your brand, you can scan through the other brands in the
table using the UP and DOWN buttons (there is a chance that your
component was actually manufactured by another brand). However, most of
the code tables are so large it is usually faster to use the Learning Method on
Page 9.
When the component turns off, save the code number you entered
by pressing the SAVE button that appears on the screen.
Exit SETUP mode by pressing the MAIN button two times. When
the display shows “MAIN”, you are back in normal operating
mode.
Repeat steps one through nine for each of your devices. If you are
missing any commands, use the learning method, described next
Learning Method
The MX-350 can learn commands from your old remote controls one-button-at-a-time by following these simple steps:
Line-up the MX-350 with your old remote control, head-to-head,
one or two inches apart.
On the MX-350, press and hold the MAIN and ENT (Enter) buttons at
the same time for approximately three seconds. The top of the display will show “SETUP”. You are in SETUP mode now.
Note: You have 30 seconds to perform a step while you are in SETUP mode. If
you don’t press a button within that time, the MX-350 will time out and return to
normal operation.
Press the LEARN button.
The top of the screen will change to “LEARN”.

The display will show a list of the first five devices.
Select the device you would like to teach commands to by pressing
the Device button.
Now, press any button you want to teach a command to.
Note: If you don’t see the display button you would like to teach, use the
PAGE buttons. The only buttons you can’t teach are the PAGE and MAIN buttons.
Once you press a button, the top of the display will change from
“LEARN” to “READY”.

Press and hold the button you want on your old remote control until
the display changes to either “GOOD” or “FAILED”.
If the “GOOD” label appears on top of the display, you were successful.
Now, press the next button you wish to teach. Keep repeating steps 6
through 7 until you have learned all the buttons you want.
If the “FAILED” label appears on top of the display, try to teach the
same button in MX-350 once again by repeating steps 6-7.
Continue to teach any commands from any of your remote controls
by repeating steps 5-7 (to go back to step five, press MAIN once).
Once you completed teaching all the buttons, return to normal operation by pressing the MAIN button twice. Test all your new commands.
If any of them don’t work, try learning again using these notes:

Move to another room. Plasma TVs, sunlight, halogen or
quartz lighting can interfere with the learning process.
Although the old remote control seems to work fine,
change the batteries to fresh alkaline batteries.
Vary the distance between the remote controls
gradually. Try 1/4”, 1”, 2”and so on, up to 4 feet.
Tap the button on the original remote control instead of
pressing and holding it during the learning process.

Volume Control Punch Through
In most home entertainment systems, the sound volume is only controlled by one device. In some systems, it is the TV speakers that make
the sound, so you would use the TV device on the MX-350 to raise and
lower the volume. In another system, it might be a surround sound
receiver and speakers that control the sound, so you would use the
MX-350’s AUDIO device to adjust the volume. Constantly switching the
MX-350 to TV or AUDIO to adjust the volume is inconvenient in daily
life.
You can use Punch Through to set the MX-350’s volume buttons to always
control the sound in your system. That way when the MX-350 is set to
VCR or DVD, the volume up, down and mute buttons will work perfectly without switching back to AUDIO or TV. Here’s how:
Enter Setup mode by pressing and holding both MAIN and ENT for
three seconds. The top of the display show you are in SETUP mode
now.
Note: You have 30 seconds for each step, otherwise the MX-350 will time
out automatically.
Press the PAGE UP button to get to page 2 of the SETUP menu.
Press the PUNCH button.
Press the VOL button. The display confirms by displaying “VOL” at the
top of the screen. This sets up the group of three buttons (Volume Up,
Volume Down and Mute) in one action!
The bottom of the display flashes ”PUNCH TO”.
13
Press the device button for the device that doesn’t have volume
control commands yet (i.e.,DVD). This is the device you are going
to PUNCH TO for the volume and mute commands.
Note: If you wish to PUNCH to the MAIN device, press the POWER OFF
button at this time.
The bottom of the display will then flash “PUNCH FROM”. Now
you select the device that has the volume commands you want
(i.e.,TV for systems using the TV speakers, AUDIO for systems with
surround sound receivers). The bottom of the
display will flash “SAVED”.
Repeat steps 3-5 until all your devices operate the volume perfectly. Press the MAIN button twice to return to normal operating
mode and test your Punch Through settings.
Note: The Punch Through feature is not limited to
volume and can also be applied to channel or other functions. If you find
yourself switching to a particular device frequently to use a group of controls, consider using Punch Through for another group, as listed here:
VOL - Volume Up, Volume Down and Mute
CH -
Channel Up, Channel Down, Prev. Channel and Number buttons (0-9, +10, ENT)
PLAY - Play, Stop, Pause, Rewind and Fast Forward
VOD - Guide, Menu, Info, Exit, Up, Down, Left, Right, Sel

Advanced Operation
Setting Backlight Options
You can adjust the amount of time that the MX-350 backlight stays on by
entering the SETUP mode and proceeding to page two (using the PAGE
UP button), then pressing the LIGHT button on the display (not the
Backlight button). Then enter the amount of time you would like the
light to stay on using the number pad (0-99 seconds). After making your
selection, press the SAVE button.
If you don’t want backlighting at all (this extends battery life), press the ON
button that appears on the screen. The ON will change to OFF. Press the
SAVE button. Exit the setup mode by pressing the MAIN button.
The FAV Button
When you press the FAV button, the display changes to a list of your
favorite TV channels. Each button can be set to instantly select the channel
on your TV. There are eight pages of five favorite channel buttons for a total
of 40. Simply touch the PAGE buttons to display the other favorite channels. To return to the last device you viewed, press MAIN once (a second
press will take you to the MAIN menu).
To setup your Favorite Channel buttons go to page 21.
