For questions about your Custom
Programming call:
Custom Programming of a complex
home theater and/or a multi-room sys-
tem is one of the most challenging
tasks within an audio/video installa-
tion. It involves an intimate knowledge
of how the components interact and
exact details on the proper sequences
of control.
Only a professional custom installation
company has the requisite experience
and training to quickly and effectively
customize a remote control for true
automated operation.
Congratulations on your choice!

No More Pointing!
The combination of the MX-850 with it’s
companion MRF-250 base station will
enable you to place your audio/video
components out of sight behind closed
doors and/or in another room of your
house. The MX-850 sends radio sig-
nals to the MRF-250 through walls and
closed doors (50-100’ away, indoors or
outdoors). The MRF-250 converts your
commands to the infrared signals that
control your A/V components.
3. The built-in Front Blaster sends com-
mands to components in the same cabi-
net space as the MRF-250.
1. The MX-850 remote con-
trol sends radio waves in
every direction, so you
don’t have to point the
remote anymore!
2. Self-adhesive “Flashers”
affixed to the front panels of
components relay com-
mands to components out
of “line-of-sight” with the
MRF-250.

Finding the MAIN Menu
The MAIN Button always takes you to
the MAIN Menu which may be named
for the room the MX-850 controls.
The PAGE button switches between
two MAIN Menu pages IF you have
more than ten remote controls.
When the top title bar says MAIN or
the name of a Room, you are on the
MAIN Menu.
The lower title bar displays PAGE 1 or
PAGE 2 as you switch. Each of the
remote controls the MX-850 replaces
are represented by a button next to the
corresponding screen label.

Turn On Your Entire System
Power on/off your entire system
with the MAIN Menu by following
these steps:
1. Touch the MAIN button to make
sure that you are on the MAIN Menu.
It doesn’t matter which page of the
MAIN Menu is displayed.
2. Touch the On or Off button as
desired. Wait until all components are
correctly powered on or off. Turning on
the system may take ten to twenty
seconds.
3. If one component does not turn
on/off, simply touch the button again.
TIP – The remote control will
not respond to a new button
push while is still issuing com-
mands. While busy, the
indicator flashes at the top of
the screen next to the screen
title.

Using the MAIN Menu
The MAIN Menu enables you to either
select a new Activity or simply select a
new Device to control.
When you select a new activity, the
remote control will issue a MACRO (a
timed sequence of many commands
from many different remote controls).
This MACRO was custom pro-
grammed for your system by your
installer. It will issue all of the com-
mands necessary to switch the sound
and picture of your system.
When you select a device, the remote
control becomes the remote control
you select WITHOUT affecting the
home theater.
Select a New ACTIVITY
1. Touch the MAIN button to make
sure that you are on the MAIN
Menu. Touch the PAGE button if you
don’t see the activity you want.
2. Touch the activity button next to
the desired screen label. For exam-
ple if you wish to watch a DVD
movie, touch the DVD button.

The MAIN Menu activity buttons issue
MACROS that reset the sound and
picture of your home theater to a new
activity.
TIP – The remote control is still
issuing commands while the
indicator flashes.
If the sound or the picture still are
not correct, repeat steps 1 and 2.
Select a DEVICE Only
1. Touch the MAIN button to make
sure that you are on the MAIN
Menu. Touch the Page button if you
don’t see the activity you want.
2. Press and hold the MAIN button.
While holding the MAIN button
down, touch the button next to the
desired screen label. The remote
control will now display the name of
the selected device and all buttons
will operate the device, however, the
sound and the picture of your sys-
tem have not been changed.
Controlling the Volume
For your convenience, the VOLUME
Up, VOLUME Down and the MUTE
buttons will always control the sur-
round sound system, regardless of
what activity or device you are control-
ling.
Operating any Device
You can see the name of the device at
the top of the screen. If it is not the
one you want, return to the MAIN
Menu and select a new device or
activity.
All of the printed
label buttons on the
remote operate just
like the original
remote control (with
the exception of
Volume Up, Volume
Down and Mute
which operate your
surround sound sys-
tem).

The Power ON and OFF buttons now
operate only the selected device (to
turn the entire system on/off, return to
the MAIN Menu).
The ten screen labeled buttons are
now labeled with any commands
that do not fit one of the buttons with
printed labels.
Up to 40 screen labeled buttons are
available for each device. To view
the additional buttons, press the
PAGE button to display additional
pages. The remote control can dis-
play up to four pages of screen
labeled buttons for each activity or
device! As you scroll through the
pages, notice that the bottom title
bar displays which page you are
viewing (PAGE 1, PAGE 2, etc.).
