I'm trying to hook up an iOS system at my house before I start selling the ios app and I can't for the life of me get CCP to discover the MRX-1. If I go into the router it sees it, and has an ip address assigned to it. Tech support said to make sure I had no firewalls. Still nothing?

Have you purchased and entered the Setup Code? I just got mine today. You must use this to permanently pair with the target MRX-1. You may use multiple iOS devices with this single MRX-1, but you may not use the code for more than one MRX-1. I just got my first code today. No problem pairing with MRX-1. Go to System Designer, click on top level (default = "Home" I think), and view the Properties window. The 3rd group of fields are "Mobile Device Setup" fields. Enter the Setup code there, then select the target MRX-1. It will automatically have the MAC address for the MRX-1 in the last field. Then, once you are sure you have the right MRX-1 and have entered the correct setup code (you may use the hyphens, as it shows on the Set-up Code card), click on "Activate". Done.

My issue is how to actually get the software to see the phone itself. I click on "iPhone" and "Download", and nothing, even though I have both on the same network, and have the CCP iPhone App launched. If you get to this stage, and you can answer my question, I'm all ears on the answer! :)

Never mind about my question. I needed to "Discover" each iOS device. Not sure how I missed that... :)

You do not need a setup code to discover the MRX-1 in ccp.

Does this mean if you have more than one MRX-1 in your system you need a code for each one?

Nope. One code for the individual program, and as many MRX-1's as you want.

Update....I finally got the ccp app up and running. Had to use a pc to get my card activated, I wasn't able to connect to the Urc servers with parrallels on my Mac. I know they have done a couple updates since then, but until I try to activate another card I won't know if there was a patch for that.
Even on the pc...an error message came up like mxs-ml...we were then able to get it to activate.
Now that it is up and running, it works great!!! I swear it reacts faster then an mx880 on the same system,

That is incorrect, at least according to the information provided to me (I am a Canadian Authorized Dealer). Only one MRX-1 may be used with one iOS Setup Code. Your code is permanently tied to the MRX-1 in URC database once you set it up. You may use multiple iOS devices per iOS setup code/MRX-1 combination, just no more than one MRX-1. If the MRX-1 malfunctions and you need to replace it, you will need to contact URC to have the code unlinked to the old MRX-1, and then you'll be able to link it to a new one.

No, one registration code assigned into the HOME properties will accommodate as many MRX-1's as you want on the same network. Try it if you don't believe me...

You may mean MRX-10, and then all is correct.
