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 instal-

lation. It involves an intimate knowledge of how the components interact

and exact details on the proper sequences of control.

Only a Complete Control dealer has the requisite experience and training

to quickly and effectively customize a remote control for true automated

operation.

Congratulations on your choice!

MEDIUS OWNERS MANUAL

Congratulations!

You’ve purchased a unique synthesis of hardware and software engineering,

the Complete Control Medius. The Medius achieves a magnificent combina-

tion of power and flexibility, simplifying and automating operation of even the

most complex system.

One Touch Multi-Color Backlighting

Simply press the LIGHT button to backlight the screen.

Integrated Sound Signaling

The Medius incorporates a small speaker for beeps. Anytime you press a

button, the Medius signals that it has understood your command with a

beep sound.

LCD Touch Screen

The Medius is equipped with a bright easy to read LCD touch screen

which your installer will customize for your system. The screen buttons

change based on your activity. To use a button, simply tap the screen

with the tip of your finger. It is not necessary to use a stylus from a PDA.

Simply tap the interactive touch

screen buttons to operate them.

The busy symbol appears

when Medius is controlling your

system. It will blink as long as the

Medius is transmitting a command

or a series of commands (a

macro) to your system. While it

is transmitting, the Medius will not

respond to another button press.

When the Medius is finished con-

trolling your system, the indicator

will disappear, and you can press

any button.

MEDIUS OWNERS MANUAL

Optional RF “No Rules” Operation

In combination with a Complete Control RF Base Station, the Medius can

control your system without being in line-of-sight of the equipment.

Any of the Complete Control MRF series of RF base stations is compatible

with the Medius. Both incorporate RF addressing. RF Addressing gives you the

ability to control equipment locations throughout your home, even if they are

concealed in other rooms or are behind closed doors.

4. Self-adhesive “Flashers” affix to the Infrared

sensors on the front panels of your compo-

nents. The Flashers relay commands to com-

ponents out of sight of the MRF-300’s Front

Blaster. The flashers plug in to the MRF-300’s

rear flasher line outputs via their 10 foot

cables. Uniquely, the MRF-300 can also con-

nect to a components rear panel IR input via

its adjustable IR Line Outputs.

3.The MRF-300’s built-in Front Blaster sends commands to

components in the same cabinet space as the MRF-300.

1.The Medius sends radio waves

in every direction, so you don’t

have to point the remote any-

more!

2.The RFX-150 RF Sensor can be freely

positioned for optimal reception.

tions inside the battery compartment.

MEDIUS OWNERS MANUAL

Programming the Medius

The Medius is programmed via a Windows PC equipped with a USB port

(programming cable included), using our proprietary software, TX-1000

Editor. You can download this software from our website:

www.universalremote.com

Basic setup takes only a short time with this software. However, to fully

automate an audio/video system the user must have a detailed knowledge

of each component, you the user (and your preferences) and how the sys-

tem is connected and operated. We highly recommend that you use a

professional audio/video installer to program your Medius so you will be

able to enjoy all the benefits of the Medius as well as one touch operation

via macros.

MEDIUS OWNERS MANUAL

Selecting a New “Activity”

The Medius’s WATCH and LISTEN buttons display the activities you can

control with your Medius. When you want to watch something else (a

DVD movie, a videotape or an HDTV broadcast), simply press the

WATCH button and select the new activity. When you want to listen to

the radio or to a CD, touch the LISTEN button and select what you would

like to listen to.

Your installer will have programmed the button you pressed to totally con-

figure your system to watch or listen to whatever you selected. Now, the

screen will change, and all of the LCD buttons will be reconfigured to

give you full control of your system while watching or listening to your

selection!

When you press the LISTEN button,

you can see the most frequently used

activities you have for listening in

your system.

Press either of the PAGE buttons to see

any other available choices. You may

have only one page or your system may

have several pages of “Listen Activities”.

When you press the WATCH button,

you can see the most frequently used

activities you have for watching the

sources in your system.

Press either of the PAGE buttons to see

any other available choices. You may

have only one page or your system may

have several pages of “Watch Activities”.

MEDIUS OWNERS MANUAL

Using the Medius to Control an “Activity”

Once you’ve selected a new activity, the Medius displays the title of the

activity at the top of the screen. Below the title, the LCD displays the cus-

tomized names of any special features you need for the activity. All the

hard buttons of the Medius have now changed to functions optimized for

this activity.

The Title displays

what activity you

can control.

The Volume

and Mute but-

tons always

control the

sound regard-

less of what

screen is dis-

played.

Press either of the

PAGE buttons to

see any other avail-

able choices. You

may have only one

page or your sys-

tem may have sev-

eral pages of spe-

cial features for this

activity.

The transport buttons (Play, Stop,

Back, Ahead and Pause) operate

when the selected activity requires

them (for example, if you watch

HDTV with a TiVo type of DVR,

these buttons will control the DVR).

The 4 way cursor

buttons enable you

to navigate on

screen guides and

menus with ease.

The Channel

and Previous

Channel but-

tons are pro-

grammable.

They will

change chan-

nels when

you have

selected an

activity like

Watching

HDTV .

The touch screen button labels describe

special features for this activity.

Displaying the Setup Screen

You can adjust the settings of the Medius whenever you like by pressing and

holding both the WATCH and the SEL button at the same time for three sec-

onds. When you do, the screen will change to the SETUP screen. If you do

not press any button on the SETUP screen within 30 seconds, the Medius

will time out and automatically return to normal operation. You can return to

normal operation before that by pressing either the WATCH or the LISTEN

button.

two buttons.
