Page 1MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATIONIntroductionThank you for purchasing the MRX-4IR Network Base Station. TheMRX-4IR requires a Total Control MRX Advanced System Controllerand compatible interfaces, programmed by a Custom Professional,to control your home. Communicating over the network using Wi-Fi, or a wired LAN connection, the MRX-4IR receives commandsfrom the System Controller and relays them, via IR, to four or moredevices. Controlling your home is simple with the MRX-4IR.Features and Benefits IR Flasher OutputsControl up to four of your components without ever getting upfrom your seat. Front IR BlasterControl IR devices where an IR emitter cannot reach the device’s location, like a TV over a fireplace. Network Connectivity Receives commands over the network from an MRX AdvancedSystem Controller and then sends IR signals to control yourcomponents. Compact Size The small size of the MRX-4IR allows it to easily fit behinddevices or into places where a traditional base station would not.Parts GuideThe MRX-4IR includes:1 - MRX-4IR1 - AC Power Adapter4 - Mounting Screws1 - Mounting Plate4 - IR Emitters (3.5mm plugs)1 - Owner’s Manual
Page 2MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATIONFront, Rear and Bottom Panel DescriptionsFront PanelThe front panel consists of 3 indicator lights and an IR Blaster.Power LED: The Power LED illuminates when the unit is powered.Status LED: When the MRX-4IR powers up, both the Status andData LEDs blink. When a network connection is made, the StatusLED color will vary depending upon its “connected state”: goodsignal strength is represented by “Green”, poor signal strength by“Orange” (which is only present when a wireless connection isused) and no connection is OFF.Data LED: The Data LED flashes as the MRX-4IR transmits IR data.IR Blaster: The front IR Blaster sends IR signals to one or morecomponents placed in direct line of sight.IR Blaster
MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATIONRear PanelThe rear panel ports are:DC 12V Power: Plug in the included 12V DC 1A power supply. IR Outputs: Connect an included 3.5mm IR emitter to each of thefour IR outputs. Adjust the IR output signal strength for port 1 usingthe attenuator located on the bottom of the unit.LAN Connection: If a wired connection is needed, this port uses astandard Ethernet (RJ-45) plug to communicate via the local areanetwork.Page 3
Page 4Bottom PanelThe bottom panel consists of:Reset Button: The Reset button is located on the bottom of the unit,and requires a stylus, or paper clip to press the button. Pressing theReset button will cycle the MRX-4IR’s power. (Unplugging the MRX-4IR’spower cable and then plugging it back in, also performs the samefunction.)Pressing and holding the Reset button for 15 seconds, will factorydefault the MRX-4IR, and return the unit back to its originalunprogrammed state.Mac Address Sticker: The MAC Address (12 numbers) identifies thiswireless device when connected to the network.IR Attenuator: Use the included adjustment tool (or a flathead screwdriver)to increase or decrease the intensity level for IR output #1.MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATION
Page 5MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATIONNetwork InstallationWARNING!! Before proceeding, a Custom Professional is requiredto install and configure your MRX-4IR. The MRX-4IR is a network base station that allows full control ofyour components with the use of Total Control MRX AdvancedSystem Controllers and compatible interfaces. Once installed on thenetwork, and a button is pressed on an interface, a command istransferred over the customer’s network to the MRX AdvancedNetwork System Controller, which in turn is routed to the MRX-4IRand then sends IR commands to the components you specify.1. Connect the MRX-4IR onto the network (wired or wireless).2. Connect your laptop into the same network as the MRX-4IR.MRX-4IRWi-Fi Router
Page 6MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATIONNetwork Discovery & DownloadWARNING!! Before proceeding, a Custom Professional is requiredto install and configure your MRX-4IR.1. Open a new or current project. In Step 3: Add URC Devices, addan MRX-4IR to a room included in your project which representsthe physical location of the unit.2. In Step 6: Network Setup, discover the MRX-4IR using the sameprocess used for other Total Control network products in theproject.3. Press the Download button within the Program menu.4. Make sure to check the MRX-4IR checkbox, then press theDownload to Selected Devices (Direct) button.
MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATIONPage 7Optimizing IR Flasher LevelsTest a few commands for each component before fixing the flasherin place on the front panel of a device.Since TiVo, Satellite Receivers and Cable Boxes are all extremelysensitive to IR overload or saturation, you should test them thoroughly. Put up the on screen guide and test the navigationarrows. If operation is inconsistent or sluggish, lowerthe IR line output for port 1 only and/or reposition the flasher.If you still have sluggish operation, make sure IR routing is usedrather than ALL. When IR commands are sent to all the flashers in acabinet, you can have difficulty adjusting the IR Output. ProgramURC Accelerator to send IR commands only via a specific IR port(1-4), then readjust the IR Line Output level.Connect an IR emitter to each IR output and run the emitter wire tothe IR receiver of each component. DO NOT STICK the emitter inplace yet. Adjust the LEVELon IR port 1 or adjust the emitterPLACEMENT for ports 2-4 until the component responds to IR commands then stick the emitter in place.IR Outputs: These ports can be as discrete, ‘routed’ outputs thatonly send IR commands to the specific component that each emitter is attached. This assures accurate control in that a givencomponent’s commands are routed only to its dedicated IR outputand emitter, preventing IR oversaturation from multiple emittersflashing at the same time. POLARITY: Tip=IR data, Sleeve=GND.
MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATIONPage 8Overview of IR RoutingThere are several considerations to take into account when you areinstalling an MRX-4IR to control an array of components:1. When connecting a flasher from the MRX-4IR to your compo-nent make sure to notate the IR outputs being used. Program thesameport designations into URC Accelerator.2. Assigning each component with its own individualized portnumber helps to control multiple components eliminatinginterference.3. Identical components must receive IR commands ONLY from adedicated flasher affixed to its front panel or a rear panel directIR input.MRX-4IRWi-Fi Router
