TRC-780 OWNER’S MANUAL

Congratulations!

You’ve purchased a unique synthesis of hardware and software
engineering, the Total Control TRC-780. The TRC-780 achieves a
magnificent combination of power and flexibility by simplifying

and automating the operation of even the most complex systems.

The MRX-10 controller is required to make the TRC-780 work. The
combination of the TRC-780 and MRX-10 create a robust and
poweful system.

Backlit Color OLED Screen Buttons

When any button is pressed, the color OLED screen as well as the
remote buttons light up. Once the screen is lit, each of the six buttons
on either side of the screen will have a label. These button labels
change based on what you are watching or listening to. Thus, if you
have selected Watch TV, you will see a list of buttons that are useful to
that activity. If you are listening to your iPod through a PSX-2, you will
be able to browse the iPod content.

RF “No Rules” Operation

The TRC-780 communicates directly to the MRX-10 via 2.4 GHz
bidirectional RF. This gives the TRC-780 the ability to control your
system without being in direct line of sight of the equipment.

Your custom installer may have installed a ZR-1 Repeater to improve
communication between the TRC-780 remote controls and the
MRX-10 in your system.

Replacing the Batteries

Unlock the battery cover by pushing up on the spring lock at the
bottom of the cover. Remove the cover.

Observe the + and – polarity indi­cators inside the battery compart­ment and the batteries. Place the
four AA batteries into their posi­tions in the battery compartment.

Now, replace the battery cover and
snap it into place.

Displaying the Settings Screen

You can adjust settings of the TRC-780 whenever
you like by pressing and holding the MAIN + ENT
button for three seconds. When you do the screen
will change to the Settings Menu. If you do not press
any button on the Settings screen, the TRC-780 will
beep signifying a time-out after 30 seconds and
return to the previous setting or main screen.

There are two pages of Settings screens. To access
the other page, press either of the page buttons.
To select a setting, press the corresponding button.

To go back a step or to get out of the settings screen,
press either the MAIN button or the EXIT button on
the TRC-780.

1. Brightness: Adjust the screen brightness by
pressing the screen buttons on the left and right

Pressing the Cancel button will revert to the
remotes last saved brightness setting.
