5. Programming the MX-600 to Control Your Components
B. Learning Method
You can program the MX-600 to operate a device by
“teaching” the correct commands to device buttons on the
main screen menu, the two sub-pages within each device
button, 31 buttons and the joystick located in the middle of
the remote control. The MX-600 learns these commands by
receiving infrared signals directly from your existing
remote controls. The MX-600 receives these signals
through its
learning eye
, located at the top of the unit.
Apart from the PAGE, MAIN and FAV buttons, which
cannot be taught, the MX-600 has the capability of learning
up to 530 commands.
Tip
: Function buttons are any buttons that can be assigned
a command to control a particular action for your device.
Commonly used function buttons include the two pages of
sub-commands within each of the 10 devices, channel up
and down, volume up and down, menu, guide, exit, info,
0-9, and the joystick.
Points to Remember
If the remote control fails to learn a function after the first try:
●
Keep the remotes stable by placing them on a flat surface.
●
Make sure the original remote is pointed at the learning
eye at the top end of the case and is not at an angle.
●
Make sure both remotes’ batteries aren't low.
●
Avoid programming the MX-600 under bright lighting. It
can interfere with the infrared signals.
●
Try again. Sometimes the second or third attempt works.
●
Some buttons require a single, short push of the original
remote's button, other “repeating” buttons, such as the
VOL button, require that you “press and hold” the original
