Using Variables for Devices that have Power Toggle
The key to using this technique is reliable RF communication between the MX-5000 and the MRF Base
Station. If the Base Station is placed carefully, and is getting no RF interference, the variable technique is very
reliable. Fundamentally, you are going to program the MX-5000 to track whether the component (a Cable Box
in this example) is On or Off, and only issue the toggle type Power command when needed. Note: The system
can get out of sync if the client turns on the TV with another remote control or by hand.
1 Open the Cable Box Power page.
2 Click on the Cable Box “Power On” button first.
3 In the Macro window, click on the” Variable” icon button.
4 The Action Variable Setting window opens up.
5 Click on the “Add New” variable button .
