MRF-300 BASE STATION Features and Benefits Interference Rejection and Adjustable RF Range via RFX-150 The MRF-300 receives RF (radio frequency) signals via the RFX-150 RF Sensor. The RFX-150 displays RF interference via a bright RED LED, which flickers when interference is present. Simply relocate the RFX-150 out of the interference or reduce the range to eliminate interference via the RF Range adjust screw. Expand Range by Adding RFX-150 RF Sensors in Remote Areas The MRF-300 can power up to three RFX-150 RF Sensors connected in parallel to the RF Input connector. Variable IR Output Matches Rear Panel IR Inputs The MRF-300 is equipped with adjustable IR line outputs, each output can be individually matched to rear panel IR inputs on any component that is designed to be operated by a standard IR repeater.The outputs utilize a 3.5mm jack. Up To Fifteen Equipment Locations With Identical Components Each URC MX series "addressable" remote control can be programmed to specifically control components in a particular room, by installing a base station at each location. In operation it's simple: when you select a device located in the Den, the MX series remote only sends commands to the Den. When you select a device located in the Family Room, the MX-3000 only sends commands to it. A Single MRF-300 Can Control an Array of Identical Components or Identical Zones of a Multi Zone Preamp/Matrix Switcher Each MRF-300 has six "addressable" IR Line Outputs. For example, you can control up to six identical TV's with one MRF-300 or route volume commands for a specific zone to a particular zone IR input on a multi-zone preamp. If you have more than six identical components or zones, up to 15 additional MRF-300's can be installed to control them (thus allowing up to 90 identical components or zones in one house). IR Input for Keypads or IR Repeater Systems The MRF-300's rear panel IR input will relay IR Data from IR repeaters or MultiZone Keypads to all IR line outputs (does not support IR routing).The 5V, 100 milliamp output will directly power some brands and models of keypad directly.
