Learning Method You can program the MX-600 to operate a device by "teaching" the correct commands to device buttons on the main screen menu, the two sub-pages within each device button, 31 buttons and the joystick located in the middle of the remote control. The MX-600 learns these commands by receiving infrared signals directly from your existing remote controls. The MX-600 receives these signals through its learning eye, located at the top of the unit.
