MX-980

Master Remote

Simplify the Complex,Customize for Every

User and EnchantYour Clients with Color.

Stunning QVGA Color LCD

The 2.4” 240 x 320 pixel screen provides a visual feast for your clients with

an incredibly detailed 160 pixel per inch view. Capable of 262,144 colors,

the screen labels eight hard buttons with icons and sharply readable text.

MX-980 Editor provides thousands of icons in galleries for every

purpose, from selecting activities to favorite Satellite Radio stations.

Whole House Device Control

Transparently to your client,the MX-980 routes commands

three ways: line of sight IR,RF via an MRF base station or

MSCTrigger to an MSC-400.Thus, one macro step might

command the drapes to open via line of sight IR, while

the next step powers on the localTV via RF to a locally

placed MRF base and still another step configures the

correct Satellite Receiver in the equipment closet via an

MSC-400 trigger command.

Perfect MSC-400 Integration

The MX-980’s OpenArchitecture™PC Editor unleashes

the possibilities of Master System Control automation via

MSC-400.Any button,any screen can be programmed with

MSCTriggers,providing your system designs with perfect

reliability and predictability (and maximum referrals).

Animated Status Screens

When the MX-980 is“busy” reconfiguring your client’s system

with a macro, the screen can be filled with customizable

animations that lets the client know that your programming is

automating their system with a cool, colorful animated graphic.

Elegant Recharging Base

The MX-980’s Lithium Ion battery can be used without rules.The

battery does not retain a“memory”like other rechargeable

batteries and can be kept charging for any length of time.

When the MX-980 needs charging, your client simply

places it in the convenient charging base.

Incredibly Fast, Structured

Programming with a New File

When starting from scratch,MX-980’s OpenArchitecture enables

you to start a new project with any template.

You can start from a file with no devices prebuilt and create your

own freely, or opt to delete from a template with 8 or 16 devices.

Drag to Create New Devices

Complete with Icons andText

Editing the layout of theWatch and Listen Main Menus is a

snap with the newly designed Create and Name Devices window.

Simply choose whether your label is Left,Right or Joined

(combines two buttons into one) then drag the appropriate icon

to the menu position.Once you click on Save, the empty device

is created (complete with a pre-programmed Page Jump).

Build Graphic LayoutsYour Way

Before applying any IR codes or MSC triggers,the programmer

builds button layouts for each device the MX-980 controls.

Instead of the laborious creation of each button graphic,

MX-980 Editor offers an automated process.Simply select the

kind of device you want,create it,then apply the correct button

layout to the device.

Label Buttons FreelyVia Drag

and Drop Navigator

Customize the LCD button layout with new text labels via the

IR Database Navigator,now improved with text replacement to

any button you drag to. In seconds,a programmer can completely

revise the layout of a device. Simply replace the text and the IR

command.

Instantly Navigate

Existing Files

Like all OpenArchitecture MX

Editors,you can open an existing

file and instantly access any part

of the file by clicking in

TreeView.

Fast Powerful Macro Programming

with Advanced MS-400 Logic

The MX-980 Editor opens the

door to IF/ELSE andTOGGLE

logic,enabling sophisticated

automation of complex systems.

You can view all the details of a

macro by simply clicking on the

button in SimulatorView.In the

MacroWindow,you can inspect

your programming,drag to

rearrange the order or logic of

steps and copy and paste com-

mands or groups of commands

from one macro to another.

At a Glance, Identify orTest any

Button’s Programming

In SimulatorView any button with

programming is FLAGGED,giving you

an instant glimpse into the functionality

of each page.

By simply navigating through the pages

of a customer’s file you can easily identify

a missing command.More importantly,

by selecting a button you can view any

command in the button’s action list

and test it individually.

Quickly Drag and Drop

Codes andTriggers

As with all OpenArchitecture MX Editors,you can import

codes from work you’ve done on other remote controls using

the Universal Browser.When programming triggers,a quick

drag from the browser to either the selected button or the

macro window is all that it takes to harness the sophistication

of the MSC-400.

MX-980: Narrow Band RF

and MSC-400 Compatible

Any audio video system, by its very nature, includes components

with high speed microprocessors which produce wide band

localizedRF interference.Thecombinationofthe MX-980 Narrow

Band RF Transmitters with the RFX-250 provides ultra reliable

RF via the extraordinarily specific narrow band reception of the

RFX-250.

The RFX-250 is included with both the MRF-350 Routing Base

Station and the MSC-400 Master System Controller.

The MX-980 is compatible with the new MSC-400 “Trigger”

protocol,which enables complex macros,stored in the MSC-400,to

be individually triggered with a single button push on the MX-980

regardless of the interference and noise in the environment.

The combination of very narrow

transmission of digitally encoded

packets sentTHREE times at digital

speeds in milliseconds, assures that

every button press on the remote

will be received by the MSC-400.

The MSC-400’s instantaneous error

correction compares the three

packets.Once two packets are identified as identical,the MSC-400

goes to work.

This new technology not only increases range, but increases

reliability by a vast margin.The MX-980 is equipped with both the

new Narrow Band Transmitters and the new RF Protocol for the

MSC-400.

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

MX-980 renews the backlighting.

An MX-980 in

Every Room

Specify a customized MX-980 for every

room in a house. Use the included

set of preprinted room labels to fit

in the coined area at the base of

the control to identify which

remote is customized for

each room. Customize withThemes,

Icons,Animations & Sound

Like the MX-3000,the MX-980 displays any of the

acclaimed factory themes or your own customized

versions via the galleries of icons,animations and

sounds. Additionally, you can play back a WAV file

with a button press or as a step in a macro.
