AMX Mio Moderno MIO-IRRX Quick Start Manual

Overview
The Mio Modero IR (FG5797-01xx; xx indicates color selection) is a remote IR
receiver for use with NetLinx Central Controllers and operates via the AXlink bus to
remotely control devices. The Mio Modero IR is in a wall panel that fits into the US-
style single-gang enclosure and most International single-gang enclosures. The Mio
Modero IR works with AMX 38 kHz and 455 kHz IR transmitters.

Setting the AXlink Device Number
1. If connected, disconnect the power supply.
2. Locate the 8-position Device DIP switch (FIG. 2).
Mounting Frame
3. Set the DIP switch according to the DIP switch values shown below.
Switch
Value
The device number is set by the total value of DIP switch positions that are
ON (up).
As an example, the DIP switch in FIG. 3 defines device number 129
(1+128=129).

If you later change the device number, remove and reconnect the AXlink power
connector to enter the new device number into memory.
Preparing captive wires
You will need a wire stripper, and flat-blade screwdriver to prepare and connect the
captive wires.
1. Strip 0.25 inch (6.35 mm) of wire insulation off all wires.
2. Insert each wire into the appropriate opening on the connector according to the
wiring diagrams and connector types described in this section.
3. Turn the flat-head screws clockwise to secure the wires in the connector.
Note: Do not over-torque the screws; doing so can bend the seating pins and damage
the connector.
Wiring Guidelines
The Mio Modero IR requires 12 VDC power to operate properly. The power is supplied
by the AMX system's AXlink cable. The maximum wiring distance between the Central
Controller and the receiver is determined by power consumption, supplied voltage,
and the wire gauge used for the cable. The following table lists wire sizes and the
maximum lengths allowable between the receiver and the Central Controller. The
maximum wiring lengths are based on a minimum of 13.5 volts available at the Central
Controller's power supply. If the distance is greater than what is listed in the table,
consult the Mio Modero Device Family Instruction Manual for wiring with external
power sources.
