Page 2 MX-3000 COLOR TOUCH SCREEN No More Pointing! The combination of the MX-3000 with it's companion MRF-250 base station will enable you to place your audio/video components out of sight behind closed doors and/or in another room of your house. The MX-3000 sends radio signals to the MRF-250 throughout your house (50-100' away, indoors or outdoors). The MRF-250 converts your commands to the infrared signals that control your A/V components. 1. The MX-3000 remote control sends radio waves in every direction, so you don't have to point the remote anymore! 2. The MRF-250's built-in Front Blaster sends commands to components in the same cabinet space as the MRF-250. 3. Self-adhesive "Flashers" affix to the Infrared sensors on the front panels of your components. The Flashers relay commands to components out of sight of the MRF-250's Front Blaster. The flashers plug in to the MRF-250's rear flasher line outputs via their 10 foot cables.
