Congratulations!

Thank you for purchasing the Complete Control MX-780 universal

remote control. This unit can directly control every IR device in

your home. You can also control devices located in different rooms

by integrating an MRF base station. Controlling your home is simple

with the MX-780 remote.

Brilliant OLED color display with hard button interface

When any button is pressed, the color OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode)

screen, as well as the remote buttons, light up. Once the screen is lit,

each of the three buttons on either side of the screen are labeled.

These button labels are based on the devices you want to watch or

listen to.

User interface customizable for any activity

Each button is customizable for activities such as watching TV or

listening to the radio. These activities can contain multiple commands

(macros) which enable a single button press to turn the needed

devices ON or OFF.

Ultra-reliable narrow band RF - compatible with URC

418 MHz RF Base Stations

The MX-780 can communicate directly to RF base stations, such as

the MRF-350 and the MRF-260. It also natively communicates to

URC Lighting via 418MHz RF. This gives the MX-780 the ability to

control your system without being in direct line-of-sight.

Fast setup of complex systems via Complete Control PC editor

To fully automate an audio/video system, and integrate two way

automation of servers etc., the programmer must have a detailed

knowledge of each component, LAN configuration, WiFi

optimization and how the system is connected and operated. Only

a trained and certified professional audio/video installer can install

an MX-780 remote control in a timely and efficient manner.

Replacing the Batteries

Unlock the battery cover by pushing up on the spring lock at the

bottom of the cover. Remove the cover. Observe the + and –

polarity indicators inside the battery compartment and the batteries.

Place the four AA batteries into their positions in the battery compartment.

Now, replace the battery cover and snap it into place.

Displaying the Settings Screen

You can adjust settings for the MX-780 whenever

you like by pressing and holding the MAIN + ENT

button for three seconds. When you do, the screen

will change to the Settings menu. If you do not

press any button on the Settings screen, the

MX-780 returns to the previous Settings or Main

screen after 30 seconds.

There are two Settings screens. To access the

other page, press either of the page buttons. To

select a setting, press the button adjacent to the

setting you would like to adjust.

screen, press either the MAIN button or the EXIT

on the left and right side of the slider bar. Once

the brightness has been adjusted, simply press

the Save button. Pressing the Cancel button will

revert to the remote’s last saved brightness setting.

Note: High brightness settings will delete the

batteries faster.

2. Automatic Turn Off: Adjust the duration the OLED screen will

remain illuminated after a button is pressed. Pressing the left and

right screen buttons, next to the slider bar,

changes how long the OLED screen stays on.

Pressing the Less side decreases the time in steps

down to a minimum time of 5 seconds.

Pressing the More side increases the time in

steps up to a maximum of 60 seconds. Once

the setting has been adjusted, simply press the

Save button. Pressing the Cancel button reverts

the remote’s Automatic Turn Off setting to the last saved setting.

Note: Increasing the Auto Turn off time will delete the batteries faster.

button is pressed the button back

light automatically turns on.

Once all changes have been made, press

the Save button. Pressing the Cancel

button reverts to the remote’s last saved

setting. Note: Selecting AutoLight Yes will

delete the batteries faster.

2. Automatic Turn Off: You can adjust the amount of time the

backlight remains on after a button is pressed. Press the left and

right screen buttons next to the slider bar

to change the duration. Pressing the Less

side decreases the time in steps down to

a minimum of 5 seconds. Pressing the

More side increases the time in steps up

to a maximum of 60 seconds. Once the

setting has been adjusted, simply press the

Save button. Pressing the Cancel button

reverts to the remote’s last saved Automatic Turn off setting.

faster.

battery percentage is reached, a notification

screen appears reminding you the batteries will

need to be replaced. Once the setting has been

adjusted, simply press the Save button. Pressing the Cancel button

reverts to the remote’s last saved Power Remaining setting.

3. System Info: The System Info screen

usage and operating system version.

to the Operating System information, and

pressing the Prev button takes you back to

the System Memory information.
