MRX-4IR NETWORK BASE STATION
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the MRX-4IR Network Base Station. The
MRX-4IR requires a Total Control MRX Advanced System Controller
and 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 commands
from the System Controller and relays them, via IR, to four or more
devices. Controlling your home is simple with the MRX-4IR.
Features and Benefits
IR Flasher Outputs
Control up to four of your components without ever getting up
from your seat.
Front IR Blaster
Control 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 Advanced
System Controller and then sends IR signals to control your
components.
Compact Size
The small size of the MRX-4IR allows it to easily fit behind
devices or into places where a traditional base station would not.
Parts Guide
The MRX-4IR includes:
1 - MRX-4IR
1 - AC Power Adapter
4 - Mounting Screws
1 - Mounting Plate
4 - IR Emitters (3.5mm plugs)

Front, Rear and Bottom Panel Descriptions
Front Panel
The 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 and
Data LEDs blink. When a network connection is made, the Status
LED color will vary depending upon its “connected state”: good
signal strength is represented by “Green”, poor signal strength by
“Orange” (which is only present when a wireless connection is
used) 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 more
components placed in direct line of sight.

Rear Panel
The 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 the
four IR outputs. Adjust the IR output signal strength for port 1 using
the attenuator located on the bottom of the unit.
LAN Connection: If a wired connection is needed, this port uses a
standard Ethernet (RJ-45) plug to communicate via the local area
network.

Bottom Panel
The 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 the
Reset button will cycle the MRX-4IR’s power. (Unplugging the MRX-4IR’s
power cable and then plugging it back in, also performs the same
function.)
Pressing and holding the Reset button for 15 seconds, will factory
default the MRX-4IR, and return the unit back to its original
unprogrammed state.
Mac Address Sticker: The MAC Address (12 numbers) identifies this
wireless 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.

Network Installation
WARNING!! Before proceeding, a Custom Professional is required
to install and configure your MRX-4IR.
The MRX-4IR is a network base station that allows full control of
your components with the use of Total Control MRX Advanced
System Controllers and compatible interfaces. Once installed on the
network, and a button is pressed on an interface, a command is
transferred over the customer’s network to the MRX Advanced
Network System Controller, which in turn is routed to the MRX-4IR
and 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.

Network Discovery & Download
WARNING!! Before proceeding, a Custom Professional is required
to install and configure your MRX-4IR.
1. Open a new or current project. In Step 3: Add URC Devices, add
an MRX-4IR to a room included in your project which represents
the physical location of the unit.
2. In Step 6: Network Setup, discover the MRX-4IR using the same
process used for other Total Control network products in the
project.
3. Press the Download button within the Program menu.
4. Make sure to check the MRX-4IR checkbox, then press the
Download to Selected Devices (Direct) button.

Optimizing IR Flasher Levels
Test a few commands for each component before fixing the flasher
in place on the front panel of a device.
Since TiVo, Satellite Receivers and Cable Boxes are all extremely
sensitive to IR overload or saturation, you should test them
thoroughly. Put up the on screen guide and test the navigation
arrows. 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 used
rather than ALL. When IR commands are sent to all the flashers in a
cabinet, you can have difficulty adjusting the IR Output. Program
URC 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 to
the IR receiver of each component. DO NOT STICK the emitter in
place yet. Adjust the LEVELon IR port 1 or adjust the emitter
PLACEMENT 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 that
only send IR commands to the specific component that each
emitter is attached. This assures accurate control in that a given
component’s commands are routed only to its dedicated IR output
and emitter, preventing IR oversaturation from multiple emitters
flashing at the same time.
POLARITY: Tip=IR data, Sleeve=GND.
