Hey folks, please help. I just finish 2 Installation in one home, where in both installations were supplied a Mx850 + a RF250. 1st plasma is downstairs and the second is directly above. The top controls both the bottom, but also the top (if the top floor install is on) . Can 2 or 3 Mx850 with Rf extender be close to each other??? Any suggestions
Thanks Rico

Have you set each to a different RF ID?

Not to be trite, but if you read the directions, you'd see that you can set each unit to a different address specifically to avoid conflict with each other.

This is exactly why we complain about our industry lacking regulation and anybody with a pickup truck and a bag of tools can claim to be a CI.

You mean, just because they came in different boxes they can talk to each other??

I thought if you programmed different text that would fix it.

Hey, RicoHD, am I correct in quessing that you are an installer for BB? Magnolia? If so, and I think my gut is telling the truth, you need to either speak to your supervisor, who SHOULD know how to "change addresses" or take ceied's typical advice. BB could use the help.

AnthonyZ, BB is not going to get any help on this. They lost 4 installers just this month. This is a simple fix as far as the ir/rf thing goes. SG1
