Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Monster MCC AVL300-S Home Theater and Lighting Controller with Omnilink
Customer Review: Great remote once the pairing issue is resolved
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent remote for the price. My AV units are in a closet so I needed a remote that has RF capability + be able to control z-wave light modules. the AVL300-s fit the bill. I wanted to get the Harmony 1100 but it's around $200 more than the AVL300.
It took me about 15 min to configure all the components. For some reason, the remote and omnilink were not paired. Once the two units are paired, the remote works perfectly.
If anyone has problem with pairing the two, here's the instruction
1- Login to your account
2- Select "Modify Settings"
3- Select "Modify" Lights
4- Select "Pair Z-Wave Devices"
5- Ensure Remote is connected to the USB Cable
6- Select "Next"
7- After the remote updates you will get a screen with instructions to pair control net lights. Disconnect the Remote from the USB Cable.
8- Remove and Reinstall Battery on AVL 300
9- Take Remote to Omnilink, Ensure that the Omnilink has power.
10- Press and Hold "Connect Button" for 60 secs. Until indicators flash alternating
11- Select "Next" on Monster Remote
12- If you have lights then follow steps 13-18, if not skip to step 19
13- Select individual light.
14- Walk to light Module select "Add"
15- Press and hold button on module
16- You should get the message at "added" on the Remote screen
17- Please follow steps 11-13 to pair all the light modules
18- Press "Done" once all the light modules have been paired
19- You will get a message as "You need to Add RF-Extender to the network"
20- Walk up to the Omnilink then select "Add"
21- Press and hold "Connect" on Omnilink for 3-4 seconds
22- You should get RF Extender Added
23- Connect remote to USB and select "Next"
24- After the remote Data is transferred you should have Green Check mark on all light modules and Omnilink as paired.
25- From the Home page run a final update on the Omnilink and the Remote
Update- After a few months, remote still works great. RF and IR work perfectly. No need to spend $250 plus on the logitech
