Programming Limitations
Before beginning Basic Setup, plan the layout of the MAIN pages. Create
each device in the position you want. You cannot change the position
later.
Copy and Paste enables you to copy a group of commands from one
device and paste them into another device (or all your devices). Typically
this is used to paste the Volume and Mute commands for your sound sys-
tem into all of your other devices so that no matter what device you are
controlling, you can always adjust the volume. If macros are programmed,
it is recommended that you copy and paste the OFF macro into the OFF
buttons on every device. That way, whenever you press the OFF button,
the entire system will turn off.
Macro setup enables you to record a series of button pushes to any LCD
button or to the ON or OFF hard buttons. None of the other buttons can
be programmed with macros.
Add/Hide Pages and Buttons lets you hide any button or page of buttons
you don’t need.
Edit Labels provides you with the power to change any label to one that
you find more to your liking.
Erasing lets you erase any Macro or Learned command. Commands from
the database cannot be erased, only hidden.
RF Setup enables you to address each device to a particular RF base sta-
tion and even a particular IR output. You can set the MX-450 to output
only IR for testing, or only RF for operation (highly recommended to avoid
oversaturating IR sensors on devices).
Favorite Channels let you setup macros to change channels only. They
cannot record any button pushes besides the number keys, the -/. button
or the ENT button. Do not attempt to record any other button.
User Settings control battery life. If you extend the time the buttons stay
lit, you dramatically curtail battery life. There is some effect on battery life
when you extend the LCD screen lighting, but it is not as dramatic.
Display Tips enables an experienced programmer to turn off the Setup
Tips. If no tips appear when you attempt setup, you can turn the Setup
Tips on again. Setup tips are the programming manual for the MX-450.
