I just purchased the MX-810 and I’m in the process of programming it. I have had the MX-700 for over 4 years and know how to program that device very well but it was getting a little long in the tooth. I have what may be a pretty dumb question regarding the power on button. Is it automatically programmed to turn on devices from the main screen or do you have to use an “activity” to power on several devices? On the MX-700 you could have the power on button programmed to power on several devices from the main screen. I can’t find in the product documentation if that is the same for the MX-810 or different. I can power on and off each device from the device menu once I select the device.

At this time, I have to set an “activity” like “Watch Sat TV” to power on my TV, Dish 722 and Marantz SR5300.

Please help. Thank you.
