You can download this software from our website: www. universalremote. com Basic setup takes only a short time with this software. However, to fully automate an audio/video system the user must have a detailed knowledge of each component, you the user (and your preferences) and how the system is connected and operated. We highly recommend that you use a professional audio/video installer to program your Medius so you will be able to enjoy all the benefits of the Medius as well as one touch operation via macros.
