Introduction

TX-MLCD Mini-LCD Transmitter

• 

RS–232 port

— used to program the TX–MLCD functions. The data

rate is fixed at 1200 baud (bps).

• 

Portable

— the AMX TX–MLCD uses four AAA batteries for

completely portable operation.

Operation

Once a program, like the example in the appendix, is loaded, your TX–
MLCD provides complete menu selection of up to 12 control menus with up
to 6 functions each. Menu selections allow you to control a wide range of
devices with RF or IR signals according to your needs.

• 

RF or IR selection— The operating mode is determined at the time the
equipment order is placed. RF or IR capability is factory installed in
the unit at the time of assembly.

• 

Turn the TX–MLCD on— Press any button to activate the menu
screen. The last selected menu will appear first. Press the desired
menu selection button for the menu you want.

• 

Time out— A power saving feature. If no function key activity occurs
for approximately 2 minutes, the screen will go dark. Press any key to
return to the last selected menu.

• 

Control Function Menus— Press one of the 12 menu selection keys to
activate a menu of six control functions.

Press one of the 6 circles to activate the corresponding function next to the
dots above and below the display.  Figure 2 shows a sample TX-MLCD with
three of the twelve possible function menus.
