Custom Programming of a complex home theater and/or a multiroom 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.

MX-980 OWNERS MANUAL

Congratulations!

You’ve purchased a unique synthesis of hardware and software engineering, the Complete Control MX-980. The MX-980 achieves a magnificent combination of power and flexibility, simplifying and automating operation of even the most complex system.

Automatic Backlighting

The integral motion sensor detects any movement of the remote control and automatically backlights the screen. You do not have to press any button to display the screen. Any movement of the MX980 renews the backlighting.

Integrated Sound Signaling

The MX-980 incorporates a small speaker for beeps. Anytime you press a button, the MX-980 signals that it has understood your command with a beep sound.

Using the Color LCD and the Screen Buttons

The MX-980 is equipped with a bright easy to read LCD screen which your installer will customize for your system. The screen labels the eight hard buttons (easy to find by feel) positioned on either side of the screen. Normally, the screen is “split” so each button is allocated to a specific function (as shown on the right). This provides you with the ability to see and operate up to 8 functions on a single screen.

However, your installer can combine two buttons to create a single row that can be accessed by either adjacent button. This simplifies operation for the entire family and enables convenient operation for both left and right-handed users for important functions you use frequently.

Optional RF “No Rules” Operation

In combination with an MSC-400 Master System Controller, or an RF Base Station, the MX-980 can control your system without being in line-of-sight of the equipment.

The MSC-400 enhances the capabilities of the MX-980 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-980 can control components in secondary rooms and systems via MRF-350 or MRF-260 RF base stations

1.The MX-980 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.

3.The MSC-400 can control IR, RS232 and Relay controlled devices.

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 componenets with rear panel IR Inputs via adjustable IR Line Outputs. The MSC-400 offers RS-232 control via rear panel connections as well.
