IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ESD Warning
To avoid ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) damage to sensitive components, make sure you are properly grounded before
touching any internal materials.
When working with any equipment manufactured with electronic devices, proper ESD grounding procedures must be
followed to make sure people, products, and tools are as free of static charges as possible. Grounding straps, conductive
smocks, and conductive work mats are specifically designed for this purpose. These items should not be manufactured
locally, since they are generally composed of highly resistive conductive materials to safely drain static discharges,
without increasing an electrocution risk in the event of an accident.
Anyone performing field maintenance should use an appropriate ESD field service kit complete with at least a dissipative
work mat with a ground cord and a UL listed adjustable wrist strap with another ground cord.

What’s New?
Supports multiple Harman protocols natively
The MU-series controller speaks HControl, HiQnet, and ICSP right out of the box, allowing seamless integration with
existing Harman gear. AMX touch panels, Crown DCi Amplifiers, BSS Contrio keypads and Soundweb London devices are
all available to the controller from these communication buses. Future Harman gear that is HControl aware will all work
with the MU-series controllers.
HControl
Harman HControl is a new protocol that provides self-describing devices that share their capabilities to HControl aware
controllers. The readable and controllable parameters are furnished to the controller to allow dynamic updates of
control possibilities.
Standard Language Scripting Support
Instead of using the proprietary NetLinx language for the business logic of a controlled space, the MU-series employs
standard scripting languages. This currently includes:
•Python3
•JavaScript
•Java with Groovy
The use of standard languages opens the doors for the practically infinite resources available for learning and deploying
these scripts. The programmer no longer has to go through AMX certification process to learn our specific language.
They are free to take any course, read any book, or utilize any other resource they prefer to learn the available
languages. Reaching out for questions is no longer limited to the AMX Forums or Tech Support. Industry favorite sites
like Stack Overflow are there for reference and help.
Duet Module and Driver Design Module support
The MU-series platform still supports Duet modules. This gives you control of 1000s of devices from the AMX InConcert
library. Complex devices like video conferencers and media servers will share the same uniform control set as they did
in NetLinx, allowing you to integrate them without writing programs for their native API. Similar devices become
interchangeable, so swapping out one display for another becomes a matter of pointing to a different Duet module. The
controls the script sees are the same.
USB Host
The USB-A Host port is available for use with mass storage devices for convenient logging capabilities as well as to
connect other devices such as the FLIRC IR receiver to add IR Hand Controls as an input to the system.
USB-C Program Port
The controller’s CLI is available from the USB-C port allowing the programmer to connect directly to find and configure
properties like the IP address, known devices, running programs, and many more. The symmetrical USB-C connector can
be inserted in either orientation. Once plugged in, the MU Controller presents as a virtual COM port. Use your favorite
terminal program to communicate to the MU directly.
ICSLan improvements
For models with ICSLan (MU-1000, MU-2300, MU-3300) the network address and subnet mask are now selectable,
providing a more flexible control network. The ICSLan still provides an isolated network for controlled devices that
never touches the LAN connection. IT departments only see the one LAN address for a complete system.

Mounting the controller
Mounting the MU-2300 and MU-3300
Use the rack-mounting brackets (supplied with the MU-2300/3300) for equipment rack installations. Remove the
mounting brackets and apply the rubber feet to the bottom of the controller for flat surface installations.
Installing the Controller into an Equipment Rack
The MU-2300/3300 each ship with removable rack ears for installation into an equipment rack.
Rack Mount Safety Instructions for MU-2300 and MU-3300
Be sure to follow these important safety instructions when installing your central controller:
•If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment
may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an
environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature 60°C (140°F).
•Installing the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the
equipment is not compromised.
•Mounting the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
mechanical loading.
•Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of the circuits might have on over current protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration
of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
•Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to
supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).
NOTE: To avoid repeating the installation, test the incoming wiring by connecting the Controller’s connectors to their
terminal locations and applying power. Verify that the unit is receiving power and functioning properly. Disconnect the
terminal end of the power cable from the connected 12 VDC-compliant power supply.
1. Use the supplied #8-32 screws to secure the rack ears to the sides of the controller. You can attach the rack ears
toward the front or rear panel for either a front-facing or rear-facing installation.
2. Slide the unit into the rack until the attachment holes, along both sides, align to their corresponding locations on
the mounting brackets
3. Thread the cables through the opening in the equipment rack. Allow for enough slack in the cables to
accommodate for movement during the installation process.
4. Reconnect all cables to their appropriate source/terminal locations. Refer to the Wiring and Connections section
on page XXX for more detailed wiring and connection information. Verify that the terminal end of the power
cable is not connected to the power supply before plugging in the 2-pin power connector
5. Secure the controller to the rack by using the four #10-32 screws supplied in the kit.
6. Apply power to the unit to complete the installation.
Mounting the MU-1000 and MU-1300
Mounting options for the MU-1000 and MU-1300 are as follows:
•Rack mounting with an AVB-VSTYLE-RMK-1U, V Style Module Rack Mounting Tray (FG1010-720)
•Surface mounting with an AVB-VSTYLE-SURFACE-MNT, V Style Single Module Surface Mount (FG1010-722)
•DIN Rail mounting with a VSTYLE DIN Rail Clip (AMX-CAC0001)
Consult the Mounting Options for V Style Modules Quick Start Guide included with the respective mounting kit for
instructions on mounting the MU-1000 and MU-1300. The MU-1000 and MU-1300 also have rubber feet which you can
apply to the bottom of the unit for table-top mounting.
