MRX-1 BASE STATION
Features and Benefits
The Bridge for Network Remotes and Keypads
The MRX-1 enables IR and RS-232 devices to be controlled by URC
Network Controls.
2-Way RS-232 Thermostats, Security Systems, Home Theater AVRS
and Multi-Zone Matrixes
Via the unique URC 2-Way database installers can drag and drop
2-Way pre-programmed modules into any URC Network Control
powered by the MRX-1’s two RS-232 ports. RS-232 components
can display Volume Pop Ups, Status displays, Tuner Modules, 2-
Way Transport Controls, etc.
Whole House URC Lighting via RFTX-1
Via the RFTX-1 transmitter, the MRX-1 can relay commands from
any URC Network Control to URC Lighting devices. By installing
multiple MRX-1/RFTX-1 relay stations around a home, installers can
create seamless coverage of any size house, allowing lighting paths
and whole house scenes.
Utilize MRX-1 Sensor Port to Automate TOAD Devices
The MRX-1 offers URC Network Controls automation capability for
devices that do not have discrete codes. It is equipped with a sen-
sor port compatible with optional URC video or voltage sensors,
thus an installer can program macros that test whether a device is
on or off before issuing input commands etc.
Control Devices with Relays
URC Network Controls can control lifts, screens etc. via the MRX-
1’s NO, NC or Momentary set of contacts.
Traditional Narrow Band RF
Complete Control remotes and keypads can also control the same
IR devices with an optional RFX-250 or RFX-250i.
