MX-5000 TWO WAY TOUCH SCREEN
Congratulations
You’ve purchased a unique synthesis
of hardware and software engineer-
ing, the Complete Control MX-5000.
The twin goals of the design team
were to improve the elegance and
usability of touch screens through the
physical design while providing a
new standard in brightness, clarity
and animation for the touch screen
itself.
Easy Operation
By assigning the important home theater operational buttons to the
natural resting place of the end users thumbs, the MX-5000
achieves a new standard in use and comfort.
Automatic Backlighting
The integral motion sensor detects any movement of the touch screen
and automatically backlights the screen. You do not have to press any
button to display the screen. Any movement of the MX-5000 renews
the backlighting. To adjust the backlighting, see page 12.
Programming the MX-5000
To fully automate an audio/video system and integrate two way
automation of servers etc. the programmer must have a detailed
knowledge of each component, LAN configuration, Wi-Fi optimiza-
tion and how the system is connected and operated. Only a trained
and certified professional audio/video installer can install an MX-
5000 automation system in a timely and efficient manner.
How do I reset MX-5000
Normally, resetting MX-5000 is not necessary.
However, if MX-5000's touch screen freezes or if you notice unusu-
al behavior, you should press the MAIN and EXIT buttons simulta-
neously for 3 seconds (It will restart the MX-5000).

MX-5000 TWO WAY TOUCH SCREEN
Connecting the Battery Pack
Unlock the rear cover by pressing down on the spring lock at the
top of the cover.
Remove the cover. For shipment from the factory, the battery is left
out of the MX-5000. Place the battery into the battery compart-
ment, making sure you align the contacts on the battery to the con-
tacts on the MX-5000. The battery will snap into place when
aligned properly.
Replace the cover and snap it into place.
Using the Charging Base
Plug the 6V DC adapter into a power outlet and into the back of
the charging base.
Gently place the MX-5000
into the cradle of the charging
base. It automatically aligns
itself to the contacts on the
charging base.
The Status light should imme-
diately light. Red indicates
that it is charging. Blue shows
that it is fully charged. There is
no harm in leaving the MX-
5000 on its charging base
Red indicates charging, Blue that the remote is fully
charged.
whenever it is not in use.
Two Way via Wi-Fi
To use the MX-5000 with any two way companion product, the
MX-5000 must be configured by your installer to be part of a LAN
(local area network) via a Wi-Fi b/g access point or router. This is
not user configurable. If you have any questions, consult with your
custom installer.

MX-5000 TWO WAY TOUCH SCREEN
Optional RF “No Rules” Operation
In combination with an MSC-400 Master System Controller, or an
RF Base Station, the MX-5000 can control your system without
being in line-of-sight of the equipment.
The MSC-400 enhances the capabilities of the MX-5000 by storing
and issuing Smart Macros to your main system components. It is
triggered by RF Smart Macro commands via RF (radio frequency).
In addition, your MX-5000 can control components in secondary
rooms and systems via MRF-350 or MRF-260 RF base stations.
1. The MX-5000 sends
radio waves in every direc-
tion, so you don’t have to
point the remote anymore!
2. The RFX-250 RF Sensor can be
freely positioned for optimal recep-
tion.
3. The MSC-400 can control IR, RS232 and Relay con-
trolled devices.
4. Self-adhesive “Flashers” affix to the
Infrared sensors on the front panels of
your components. Uniquely, all
Complete Control base stations can also
connect to components with rear panel
IR Inputs via adjustable IR Line
Outputs. The MSC-400 offers RS-232
control via rear panel connections as
well.

Maintaining Your MX-5000
Be careful not to scratch the touch screen, only use your finger to tap
the LCD touch screen or use a plastic pen top or PDA stylus. Never
use a real pen, pencil or any other sharp object on the screen. Keep it
away from extreme cold or heat. The MX-5000 is not waterproof. Do
not use it in any location that is damp or wet. If you spill water on it,
take out the battery pack and let the MX-5000 dry for 48 hours before
you try powering it up again. If you spill coffee or another beverage
on it, clean it with distilled water. Make sure no water gets inside the
MX-5000. The touch screen contains a glass element. Don’t drop the
MX-5000 or impact it against anything.
Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the screen. If the screen still shows
finger prints, clean it with watered down window-cleaner. Do not use
anything abrasive and don’t use too much water, some might leak into
the interior.
