FAQs: FREQUENTLY ASKED TECHNICAL QUESTIONS
Q: I would like to program my universal cable remote so I can have the
capability of using it instead of the remote that comes with the Maxent
Display.
A:
The remote control numeric codes you are requesting are not available through our company.
The manufacturer of the universal remote assigns the code you are looking for.
When a cable company (i.e. Comcast) or satellite provider (i.e. DISH Network) orders their
decoder box and universal remote control from a manufacturer (i.e. Scientific Atlanta, Motorola,
etc.); the decoder box manufacturer provides a list of all the possible remote controls this
universal can duplicate. From that list, the cable or satellite company selects which
manufacturer’s products to include on their new universal remote.
If they choose not to include
our company on the universal remote, the universal remote will not work with our product.
Possible solutions:
Some universal remote controls have a “Code Search” function. The universal remote will search
through other manufacturers’ codes until it locates a code that will work. There may be other
manufacturers’ codes that will work with our product. This may work but is not a guaranteed
solution.
You may also want to try a “learning” remote from another manufacturer. This type of remote
control can record the information coming directly out of the Maxent remote control. The
“learning remote” then duplicates that information and acts like the Maxent remote control. This
type of remote can also record the signal coming from your other remotes, in which case you can
use this “learning remote” for your entire audio video system. Earning remotes are available from
most electronic boutiques (i.e. Best Buy, Circuit City, and Radio Shack).
Q: I would like the versatility of using another manufacturer’s wall
mount. How can I mount the LCD using another company’s wall
mount?
A:
The Maxent LCDs are capable of being wall mounted using a VESA compliant wall
mount. The point of attachment to the LCD is near the top center (near the silver model
information sticker). The compliancy is via a 4in. x 4in. (100mm x 100mm) mounting
point on the rear of the unit. While we do not offer this type of wall mount, there are
various resellers that do offer this type. Sorry, we currently do not maintain a database of
these resellers.
Q: I have an MX-42X1, but the only speakers available from your web
site are for the MX-42VM10. Will these speakers work on my MX-
42X1?
