Programming the Mio R-4

Overview

Most functionality of the Mio R-4 is handled using the application TPDesign4. Go to www.amx.com for

the supporting documentation.

The Mio R-4 recognizes a select number of NetLinx Commands. For a full list and descriptions, consult

the SEND_COMMANDssection on page 41.

Using the Programming Jack on the Mio R-4

The programming jack located on the back of the Mio R-4 (FIG. 21) is used for communication between

the device and AMX software. The programming jack uses a CC-USB Programming cable, USB to mini

USB (FG10-5965). You can order the programming cable from AMX if you do not currently possess

one. While loading your configuration file, make sure the device is situated in the charging cradle.

To download Configuration Files:

1. Set the Mio R-4 communication type to USB. See the Changing the Master Connection

Type section on page 28 for details.

2. Flip and turn the Mio R-4 device so that the buttons are facing away from you and the device is

upside down.

3. Holding the device in both hands, place your thumbs on the battery door and slide the battery door

free.

4. Place the device in the charging cradle and connect the mini USB programming cable (FG10-5965)

into the programming jack on the back side of the remote device.

5. Connect the other end of the USB cable to the USB port on your computer.

6. Configure the communication parameters in NetLinx Studio 2.6, or File Transfer 2 and download

the resultant file.

Before doing any programming for the Mio R-4, you must download and install the

latest AMX USB LAN driver from www.amx.com. The user will be required to install

the driver, put the device in USB mode, and connect the device to the computer prior

to any upload or download.

USB file transfers should only be performed while the unit is on the charging cradle

and with the sleep timeout set to 0 (off). Set the sleep timeout (in the Setup Menu,

Remote and Display Settings->Timeout) to 0 BEFORE attaching the USB cable.
