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.

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.

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.
