WHERE DO I START?
First of all, get all of your original remote controls together.
Find out what brands of components you have. You may
have one or more components that do not have original
remote controls, but can still be controlled by the
MX-600. You must use the preprogrammed method for
those devices. For the rest, you can program the MX-600 to
make it compatible with your components by following the
preprogrammed method instructions, by using your original
remote controls to teach the MX-600, or both methods.
Next, it is a good idea to decide whether you want a
“Device-based” configuration, or if you want an
“Activity-based” configuration.
A “Device-based” configuration centers on each Device
with its two LCD pages controlling one component. All of
the functions that your original remote control has on it
would be put on to one device. The MX-600 comes with
the labels and preprogrammed codes in a “Device-based”
setup.
If you go to the “List of Preprogrammed LCD Text by
Device” on page 53, you will see diagrams of how the
MX-600 is set up at the factory. When you choose a
preprogrammed code for a component from the “Setup
Code Tables” in the Appendix of this manual, that code
will be applied to one device only.
An “Activity-based” configuration centers on what you are
doing at the time. If you are watching a DVD on your TV,
and are using your Home Theater receiver to control the
