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!

MX-880Z OWNERS MANUAL

Congratulations!

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

the Complete Control MX-880Z.The MX-880Z achieves a magnificent com-

bination of power and flexibility, simplifying and automating operation of

even the most complex system.

User Configurable Screen and Button Lighting

A built in pick up sensor can be set to light the screen and/or the buttons

automatically. Additionally, a dedicated LIGHT button enables the user to

backlight the buttons if the pick up sensor is turned off.

Integrated Sound Signaling

The MX-880Z incorporates a small speaker for beeps. Anytime you press a

button, the MX-880Z signals that it has understood your command with a

beep sound.

Custom Labeled Buttons

When you pick up the MX-880Z, it automatically lights up the color LCD

screen which labels the six buttons to either side of the screen. 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, while if you select Watch DVD, the buttons

will control the DVD.

LIGHT Button

Press the Light button on the

side of the MX-880Z to back-

light all of the buttons. Of

course, you could opt to set

the buttons to light automati-

cally via the pick up sensor.

MX-880Z OWNERS MANUAL

Optional RF “No Rules” Operation

In combination with a Complete Control RF Base Station, the MX-880Z

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

by utilizing the MRZ-260 Universal Remote Control RF base station.

3. 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 MRZ-260 Front

Blaster. The flashers plug in to the MRZ-260

rear flasher line outputs via their 10 foot

cables. Uniquely, the MRZ-260 can also con-

nect to components with rear panel IR Inputs

via its adjustable IR Line Outputs.

2. The MRZ-260 built-in Front Blaster sends commands to com-

ponents in the same cabinet space or you can use flashers.

1. The MX-880Z sends radio

waves in every direction, so you

don’t have to point the remote

anymore!

Installing and Charging the Battery

Open the battery cover by pressing

on the release clip and removing

the cover.

Note that the three contacts on the

battery must connect to the three

spring-loaded contacts in the MX-

880Z. Angle the battery into the

battery compartment, contacts first,

then gently fit the rear of the battery

into the compartment as well.

Replace the battery cover by insert-

ing the hinged end in first, then

snapping the cover back into place.

You can charge the Lithium Ion bat-

tery by simply plugging the includ-

ed charger into the base of the

remote as shown here.

The MX-880Z can be used while

charging.

MX-880Z OWNERS MANUAL

Programming the MX-880Z

The MX-880Z is programmed via a Windows PC equipped with a USB

port (programming cable included), using our proprietary software, MX-

880Z Editor.

To fully automate an audio/video system the programmer must have a

detailed knowledge of each component and how the system is connected

and operated. We highly recommend that you use a professional

audio/video installer to program your MX-880Z so you will be able to

enjoy all the benefits of the MX-880Z.

Selecting a New “Activity”

The MX-880Z’s WATCH and LISTEN buttons display the activities you can

control with your MX-880Z. 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!

Press either of the PAGE buttons to see any other available choices.

When you press the LISTEN button,

you can see the most frequently used

activities you have for listening in

your system.

At the bottom of the LCD screen, the

page display informs you if there are

other pages of buttons available.

When you press the WATCH button,

you can see the most frequently used

activities you have for watching the

sources in your system.

MX-880Z OWNERS MANUAL

Using the MX-880Z to Control an “Activity”

Once you’ve selected a new activity, the MX-880Z 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 MX-880Z have now changed to functions optimized

for this activity.

The Title displays

what activity you

can control.

The Volume and

Mute buttons always

control the sound

regardless of what

screen is displayed.

Press either of the

PAGE buttons to

see any other avail-

able choices.

The transport buttons

(Play, Stop, Skip-, Skip+,

FF, REW and Pause)

operate when the select-

ed activity requires them

(for example, if you

watch CABLETV with a

TiVo type of DVR, these

buttons will control the

built-in DVR, while if

you are watching a

DVD, these buttons will

control the DVD player).

The 4 way cursor

buttons enable you

to navigate on

screen guides and

menus with ease.

The Channel and

Previous Channel

buttons will change

channels when you

have selected an

activity like Watch

CABLETV or

Watch SAT TV .

The Number keypad

will enter numbers

for the activity you’ve

selected. Thus, for

watching Cable TV,

you use the number

keypad to enter chan-

nel numbers, while

when listening to CD,

the number keypad

enters track numbers.

The LCD button

labels describe

special features

for this activity.

Accessing the MX-880Z’s Setup Menus

The MX-880Z has internal setup menus that enable you to change the set-

tings that control your color screen, the button lighting, battery warnings

and the clock.To access these settings, you must press and hold two buttons

at the same time as shown here:

Simultaneously, press and

hold both the WATCH and

the ENTER buttons. When

the SETUP screen appears,

release the two buttons.
