Page 2MX-980i OWNERS MANUALPage 1MX-980i OWNERS MANUALCongratulations!You’ve purchased a unique synthesis of hardware and software engi-neering, the Complete Control MX-980i. The MX-980i achieves a mag-nificent combination of power and flexibility, simplifying and automat-ing operation of even the most complex system.Automatic BacklightingThe integral motion sensor detects any movement of the remote con-trol and automatically backlights the screen. You do not have topress any button to display the screen. Any movement of the MX-980i renews the backlighting. Integrated Sound SignalingThe MX-980i incorporates a small speaker for beeps. Anytime youpress a button, the MX-980i signals that it has understood yourcommand with a beep sound.Using the Color LCD and the Screen ButtonsThe MX-980i is equipped with abright easy to read LCD screenwhich your installer will customizefor your system. The screen labelsthe eight hard buttons (easy to findby feel) positioned on either side ofthe screen. Normally, the screen is“split” so each button is allocatedto a specific function (as shown onthe right). This provides you withthe ability to see and operate up to8 functions on a single screen. However, your installer can com-bine two buttons to create a singlerow that can be accessed by eitheradjacent button. This simplifiesoperation for the entire family andenables convenient operation forboth left and right-handed users forimportant functions you use fre-quently. Optional RF “No Rules” OperationIn combination with an MSC-400 Master System Controller, or anRF Base Station, the MX-980i can control your system without beingin line-of-sight of the equipment. The MSC-400 enhances the capabilities of the MX-980i by storing andissuing Smart Macros to your main system components. It is triggeredby RF Smart Macro commands via RF (radio frequency). In addition,your MX-980i can control components in secondary rooms and systemsvia MRF-350i or MRF-260i RF base stations3.The MSC-400 can control IR, RS232 and Relay controlleddevices.2.The RFX-250i RF Sensor can be freelypositioned for optimal reception.4. Self-adhesive “Flashers” affix to the Infrared sensors on the front panels of your components. Uniquely, all Complete Control base stations can also connect to components with rear panel IR Inputs via adjustable IR Line Outputs. The MSC-400 offers RS-232 control via rear panel con-nections as well.1. The MX-980i sends radio waves in every direction, so you don’t have to point the remote anymore!
