Observe the MRF-200’s STATUS LED blinking while you press and hold a pro-
grammed button (one with an actual command).This tells you that the MRF-
200 is receiving the RF commands of the MX-800.

With the MX-800’s IRoutput blocked by a jacket or pillow,test the control of
your components using just the Front Blaster. In most cabinets,the MRF-200’s
Front Blaster will control any A/V components in the same cabinet space by
reflections from the cabinet walls and doors.Make sure that the components
operate with the cabinet doors closed or open.If a component is placed too far
away from the front blaster,you will need to utilize the included Flashers plugged
into the MRF-200’s rear Flasher Line Output jacks.
If you have problems with components that are close to the Front Blaster,see
the next page and the section on Front Blaster Overload.

Use a flashlight to identify the correct location of the component’s IRsensor,
then try a few commands while moving the flasher around the face plate of
the component. The most reliable operation typically occurs a half inch or so
away from the IRsensor.
Once you have found the spot that gives the most reliable operation,peel off
the protective backing of the self-adhesive tape on the included Flashers and
stick them in place.
