RF Addressing gives you the ability to control as many as 60 identical components throughout a house. To enable better range and reliability the NX-RF200 is equipped with the Narrow Band RF reception (like the NX-RM610), so is only compatible with other Narrow Band remotes.
0. Simply relocate the NX-RF200 should interference occur. Two Fixed IR Outputs The NX-RF200 is equipped with two fixed IR line outputs with standard 3.5 jacks for standard IR emitter/flashers. Two Variable IR Outputs Match Rear Panel IR Inputs The NX-RF200 is equipped with two adjustable IR line outputs.
Interference (particularly devices with high speed microprocessors or hard drives). 3. Check that the address wheel on the rear of the NX-RF200 is set to ID#0 (the interference “sniffing” position). Check that the arrow pointer in the center of the wheel is pointed to 0, the default “interference sniffing”...

ID#. Keep in mind that zero (0) is not a valid RF ID#. Watch the Status LED on NX-RF200 - it should light every time you press a button on the remote. This confirms that the signal was received and understood perfectly. If you repeat any button press multiple times and the Status LED lights correctly every time, you have no interference and a very reliable installation.
Reprogram the remote control to send IR commands only via a specific (1- 4) Line Output, then readjust the IR Line Output level. Note: Remember, the NX-RF200 will NOT respond if you select IR line out- puts 5 or 6. The NX-RF200 has only four IR Line Outputs.
A few models of audio/video components can be overloaded by the Front Blaster. If you are having intermittent or inconsistent results with a particu- lar component, try repositioning the NX-RF200 and facing the Front Blaster in a different direction. If this improves the situation but is impractical, it may be necessary to utilize the self-adhesive flashers only and follow the steps below to Disable the Front Blaster.
Controlling Four Identical Components/Zones There are several considerations to take into account when you are installing an NX-RF200 to control an array of identical components: 1. The RF ID# cannot be set to Code 0, the universal setting. You must use one of the fifteen unique IR Routing addresses.

10/27/08 12:48 PM Page 11 NX-RF200 Base Station By looking at the Signal column, you can see that the factory default pro- gramming sets all of the devices to send both IR and RF commands. If you look at the column for Flashers, you can see that the default sends IR com- mands for all devices to ALL of the flashers.

NX-RF200 Base Station In the figure below, each device is set to a specific flasher. Note: Remember, the NX-RF200 will only respond to selections 1 through 4. Step 5 - Make sure that the ID# is set on both the remote and on the wheel of the NX-RF200.
LOCATION by clicking on the desired CELL and selecting the ID# you want from the pull down list. Each LOCATION should have a unique ID#. It is ok to install multiple NX-RF200’s in one location. Step 4 - Save and Download to your remote.
NXG Technology warrants this product against defects in material or workmanship for a peri- od of one (1) year and as set forth below. NXG Technology will, at its sole option, repair the product using new or comparable rebuilt parts, or exchange the product for a comparable new or rebuilt product.
Second, set the RF ID# from 1-9 or A-F on both the remote control and the rear of the NX-RF200. Third, check that the flasher level is set to the mini- mum necessary. Fourth, check that the emitter is facing the component.
