How to configure MyURemote for Audio/Video control

1. Where do I configure MyURemote?

The Configuration Panel is available online and can also be used directly on your tablet or phone. It’s designed as a modern web-style interface and works well on small and large screens.

2. The core configuration flow (always in this order)

MyURemote’s AV setup is built in a clear order. This matters because zones and inputs depend on devices.

1. Devices (define what you want to control)
2. Zones (define rooms and select the master device)
3. Inputs (connect devices to the zone’s master device)
4. Macros (automation: one button triggers multiple actions)

Controllers (e.g. Global Caché) are typically discovered automatically and become available when needed.

3. Step 1 — Create your Devices

Devices are the building blocks: TVs, receivers, streamers, set-top boxes, projectors, amplifiers, etc. Some devices may already be detected automatically (depending on technology and support level). If not, you can add them manually.

Add a device

1. Open Devices.
2. Click the + button (top right).
3. Enter a clear name (example: “Living Room TV”).
4. Select Brand and Product category (TV, amplifier, etc.).
5. Select the Device Type (model/profile) when required.

Technology selection (IP / IR / Serial)

MyURemote uses the device definition to determine the correct control method. For example, if a device can only be controlled via IR, the technology is automatically set to IR.

• IP: direct network control (TCP/HTTP/WebSocket). No controller needed.
• IR: requires an IR controller (e.g. Global Caché) and selecting the correct IR port.
• Serial: requires a network serial controller and correct serial wiring/settings.

Controllers (auto-detected)

Compatible controllers (such as Global Caché) are typically discovered automatically. When you add an IR or serial device, the available detected controllers will be offered for selection.

For IR devices, you may need to select the correct IR output port.

4. Step 2 — Create Zones (rooms)

A Zone represents a room or area (e.g. “Living”, “Kitchen”, “Bedroom”). Zones define how MyURemote groups devices and which device is considered the “master” for that room.

Add a zone

1. Open Zones.
2. Click the + button.
3. Set a label (room name) and select an icon.
4. Select the Zone’s Amplifier (Master device).
5. Optionally select a Display (TV or projector).
6. Save.

5. Step 3 — Connect devices to the Zone (Inputs)

Once a zone has a master device, you connect your sources (streamers, set-top boxes, consoles, etc.) to that master device’s inputs. This tells MyURemote how everything is wired logically.

• Select which source is connected to which input (example: Apple TV → HDMI 1).
• Use clear labels so the interface matches what users expect.

This enables MyURemote to keep the UI synchronized. For example, when the master device reports that HDMI 1 is active, MyURemote can automatically present the correct controls for that source.

6. Step 4 — Macros (one button automation)

Macros allow you to execute multiple actions with a single button press. Typical examples:

• Power on TV + receiver, set correct input, start a streamer
• Set volume level, dim lights, select a scene
• Switch the entire room to a different source

Macros are configured per zone and can include delays between commands, making them suitable for real-world AV and domotics workflows.
