Tip - Keep Your Database Up to Date — USE LIVE UPDATE
The IR code database is constantly growing with the inclusion of new devices every month. Keep your soft-
ware up to date by using the Live Update feature. Rather than un-installing and re-installing the software, you
download updates to the software from the internet. Simply follow these steps:
a
Connect to the Internet normally.
b
Open MX-950 Editor
c
From the Communications Menu, select Live Update
d
In the Live Update window, click on Update Now.
e
Wait for the window to indicate the download is
completed. Close the Window.
f
Close and re-open MX-950 Editor. You do not need to
restart Windows.
12
Once you have re-opened MX-950 Editor, connect the MX-950 to the PC via the included USB cable.
ActiveSync will chime and the icon in bottom right corner of your PC’s screen will turn green
, indi-
cating that the remote is correctly communicating with MX-950 software via Active Sync. Should an
ActiveSync window offering to synchronize “personal information” appear, click on CANCEL (the MX-
950 is not a personal information manager).
