No More Pointing - RF Capabilites
Radio Frequency (RF) operation provides 50' - 100' range though walls and doors, indoors or outdoors. Self-adhesive "flashers" affix to the infrared sensors on the front panels of your components. The flashers relay commands to components out of sight of the MRF-200's front blaster. The flashers plug in to the MRF-200's rear flasher line outputs via their 10 foot cables. Six flashers are included with each MRF-200.

RF Addressing Offers Up To 16 Equipment Locations
Each MX-800 can be programmed to operate equipment placed throughout the house, by installing an MRF-200 base station at each location. In operation it's simple: when you select a device located in the home theater, the MX-800 talks to the MRF-200 in the home theater. This makes possible a dream come true! A macro may be programmed to turn off all of the TVs in the entire house with one touch. Simply install an additional at each TV location.

RF Routing Allows For Control Over An Array Of Identical Components
The MRF-200 enables your installation to control up to six identical TVs or other identical components (VCRs, CD players, etc.) by routing your commands only to the TV you select on your MX-800. The other identical TVs will not receive commands.

Controls Up To 20 Components
The MX-800 controls up to 20 components. Each of the 20 components can be programmed with up to 4 pages of LCD screens.

Easy To Program
A custom installer can use the MX-800 system software to quickly design a remote control program to meet their exact needs in minutes. The programming package also offers the Programming Wizard to lead the first time programmer step by step through the customization process.

Windows Based PC Software
The MX Editor software contains over 1,500 "code sets" of Brands/Models, including hard to find and specific discrete codes that allow for precise control of all system components.
