The MX-950 “Core Engine”

What’s Common? SPEED!!!

New Programming Features:

All three applications, MX-950, MX-900 and TX-1000 share all the convenience and speed of MX-3000 Editor

combined with the simple, straightforward interface of the MX-850. You’ll find that many things that were diffi-

cult or impossible to do with MX-850 are now very easy to do with the MX-950 Core Engine:

Drag and Drop single IR Commands without creating a new device

Multiple page jumps during macros for easy programming of Status Messages

Better Text display. TX-1000 allows six characters per label, MX-900 allows seven and MX-950

allows up to eleven!

Nesting - All three remotes enable you to modularzie your code with one macro “nested” as a single

step inside another macro.

No need for Shortcuts - If you need a ROUTED command from one device on another device,

record a macro of a single step. This will respond exactly the way the original button does, including

repeating while the button is held, but is routed via the original commands routing.

All three remotes can now be programmed with a Navigate - Page jump, which allows you to pro-

gram buttons with a BACK button that takes them back to the last device they were on.

Key Differences:

Only MX-950 and TX-1000 can change the color of the backlighting per device. MX-900 has blue

backlighting only.

Only MX-950 can change the TEXT label of a button during a macro.

Only MX-950 can use GRAPHICS on the LCD screen.

Only MX-950 can use SOUNDS in macros.

Only MX-950 can use VARIABLES in macros.

Tree View of your configuration. Double clicking on any page enables you to quickly display that page on

the simulator view. Right clicking on a device or page activates a context menu.

The Simulate View is used to navigate and to select a button to program, edit or record a macro.

Edit and Label Buttons window is used to control a buttons graphics, text and activation.

The Macro window is used to view and edit macros.

The information bar displays whether your keyboard is cap locked or num locked.

The important thing to remember as you program is that most Windows conventions hold true in all

URC Editors. Explore the program menus. Hover your mouse over most of the buttons and controls

and a balloon will appear with a hint as to purpose. Navigate around the program window and

explore a little before you begin programming.

Programming Overview

A. New File, Existing File on PC or in Remote

NEW - Starting from scratch on a new job, go to the File Menu, choose New from the File Menu and

pick either the default file or a blank file. The default template is pre-programmed with IR commands

and is useful for quick testing, but everything will have to be reprogrammed for your system. A blank

file is completely empty. It is really personal preference which way you start.

OPEN - Open a configuration that you have worked on before and saved onto the PC hard drive.

UPLOAD - Get a file from a client’s remote control that another installer created. Now, you can save

the file on your laptop, make any edits or changes as the client requests or the jobsite requires.

B. Use SAVE AS

The templates files are simply configuration files that have been preprogrammed for you. They will keep any

changes you make. Utilize Save As to make a new file with a new file name. All configuration files are saved

with the file extension .mxa.

TIP — Always use File | Save As to rename the file before doing any programming!

Use the customer’s name and a rev # (i.e. SmithTheaterRev1.mxa)

C. Use the Program Menu

The Program Menu is your lifeline to a fast, easy programming experience.

Follow the steps in the order shown in the Menu for best results. Typically, you

will download to the remote control several times throughout this process and

test what you have done so far. You’ll need to download after finishing all pro-

gramming. For macro playback to work, you need to have downloaded. These

downloads are not listed in the steps here in the Program Menu and are not

automatically done for you.

It is important that you do all of the tasks for each step before moving on to the

next step. Keep this manual handy so that you can verify that you have com-

pleted all of your tasks.

D. Save and Reuse Customer Files

Archive and save your customer files. Programming systems with similar components gets even faster when

you don’t have to redo your work over and over. You have your own ideas about what buttons should be

labeled and how they should be arranged. You’ll save all of your work and reuse it on the next job with simi-

lar components and devices.

E. Download to both Remote Controls

Test the file before training your client.

Creating, Naming and Arranging Devices

A device is the basic grouping of a set of hard buttons and up to 255 soft button pages. You will need one

device group for each remote control that the MX-950 is replacing. You can have a maximum of 255 devices

in your configuration. When you create devices in the Create and Name Devices window, every device is

automatically linked with a jump-link to the device via either the WATCH or the LISTEN menu. If you create

devices manually you have to create a jump link from either the WATCH or the LISTEN menu button to each

device manually.

Open the Create and Name Devices Window

You can open the Create and Name Devices window by clicking on the first item of the Program Menu or by

clicking on the Toolbar icon as shown here:

Creating Devices

1After the Create and Name devices window appears, select the WATCH or the LISTEN menu from

the Device list box:

2 MX-950 Only: Select the button position you’d like to create a new device name in by clicking on it.

Now, decide if you need a double column or a single column label. A single column label can have

up to 5 characters, a double column label up to 11 characters. When you combine a button, IR

command or Macro programming will be duplicated automatically on both the left and the right

button.

Combine both left and right buttons

into one double column button.

Separate a double column button

into two separate buttons.

TIP - Use combined row LCD buttons to type user friendly labels for important activities.

3Now, select the LISTEN menu from the Device List box and create all the devices for listening.

Creating, Naming and Arranging Devices

6Type in Section Title

3You must hit the SAVE button to create all the new devices.

4Tree View reveals the new devices you’ve created and the simulator shows the new WATCH page,

with all the new device buttons displayed.

5Select SAVE from the File menu or click on the SAVE icon on the toolbar.

Setting the Backlight Color of Each Device (MX-950 and TX-1000 Only)

1Right click on any device in Tree View (including the WATCH or the LISTEN device). Select Backlight

Color from the context menu that appears.
