WiFi Speed Brings Cover Art, Artist, Album and Titles to the Touch Screen! The revolutionary Universal Remote MX-6000 brings the power of WiFi networking to the home theater, without compromising simplicity. The MX-6000 is the first home theater remote control to offer two independent communications and control methods simultaneously. The MX-6000 provides both a narrow band 418 MHz transmitter for instant control of conventional home theater components and a WiFi transceiver for high speed transfer of cover art, artist, album and title metadata. The high speed of the built-in 802.11 B/G WiFi transceiver enables the MX-6000 to display lists of artists, albums or songs and to display the cover art of the selected album on the Now Playing screen of the remote control. Internet Connection Provides Real Time News, Sports, Weather and Stocks When the MX-6000 is connected to the Internet, pre-programmed modules enable instant access to personalized news, sports, weather and stocks. Unlike other devices, the MX-6000’s news, sports, weather and stocks modules are user-configurable without a programmer or a PC. On a whim, you can check out the opposing team’s scores, or get the weather forecast for a vacation destination. News, Sports, Weather and Stocks modules require that the MX-6000 be installed to a WiFi router with an Internet connection. 2 Way Control of PSX-2 Personal Server You won’t disturb anyone else in the room when you browse with MX-6000.Your family can be watching anything on TV, while you can build playlists, navigate and explore content personally on the screen of your MX-6000.

Lists are navigated via the integrated scroll wheel without ever connecting a keyboard or mouse to the PC. At last, you have access to all the music you’ve paid for... all the music you want without the hassles... the music simply plays... Reinventing the Touch Screen Automatic Backlighting The integral motion sensor detects any movement of the touch screen and automatically backlights the screen. The user does not have to press any button to display the screen. Any movement of the MX-6000 renews the backlighting. Without movement, the touch screen stays lit for 1 to 99 seconds (programmed by the installer). Not Just Color, Animated Color! Powered by a 533MHz ARM9 microprocessor, the MX-6000 is the first touch screen designed for animation. The powerful central processor enables quick, fluid page transitions and animated macros. The 4.3” screen offers a 480x272 pixel window to any graphic. Your professional installer can place BMPs, JPEGs, GIFs, animated GIFs or FLASH SWF files in your configuration.

Double Capacity Lithium Ion Batteries and Charging Base The demands of WiFi and high speed transfers coupled with a large color touch screen raise the demand for power to a new high. The MX-6000 is equipped with a unique double capacity Lithium Ion battery, providing over 4 hours of continuous use before recharging is necessary. Should the MX-6000 be left on a table, it will remain in standby mode for ten (10) days without requiring a recharge. The attractive charging base offers an ideal angle to use while charging, so may be placed on or near your chair. In addition, the MX-6000 offers a power input on its side panel, so that it can be hand held while charging directly from the power adapter.
