More
and more users have several pieces of audio video equipment
in their homes : DVD, Digital Sat, Cable, VCR, AV receivers,
several TVs, which are all provided with their specific
remote control. People have trouble in finding the right
remote control, and in remembering the function of each
keypad. To simplify our every day life, there are Universal
Remote Controls, which allow the user to command all his
appliances from one product, and get rid of the 4 or 5
original remote controls which used to litter the sitting
room table. With the A/V appliances becoming more and more
sophisticated, it often happens that some functions of
the original remote controls are not easily accessible
with a Universal Remote Control.
X10 has developed a new range of Touch Screen remotes,
which allow to access to the functions of any appliance,
thanks to a very complete range of functions, such as :
- Extensive library of codes to match most of the TV,
VCR, DVD, and SAT appliances currently available. This
lets you set up the remote to control most of your
A/V products.
- Easy set up - look up the code for the TV, VCR,
SAT... and enter it into the remote using a simple
key sequence. Or Auto search for the code of your
TV, VCR SAT...
- Replacement of 8 remotes : controls TV, DVD, VCR,
SAT, Cable, CD, Audio, Home Automation and 1 any
additional A/V appliance
- Learning mode: ensures that the remote will work
with any audio-video appliance, up to 56 programmable
keys per each mode. No original key cannot be forgotten
!
- Scan key, for Cable and Satellite especially
- Menu functions for major codes, especially for
the DVD
- Teletext functions
Completeness does not mean complexity, and so
X10 touchscreen remotes include friendly user control
:
- The touchscreen only displays the useful
keys at each step of choice. By this way, the user
can find his way much more easily
- The screen can be customised, using a predefined
list of symbols, according to the user’s specific
needs
- With the macro function, up to 20 key strokes can
be stored under each of the 9 available Macro keys
- The “punch” through volume control,
allows to control the TV volume, even when the SAT
or Cable was last selected
- “Timer” function, to turn off an appliance
at a set time
- Backlighting with sensor: lights up your display
in darkness
Options:
- Housing : several styles available + colour options
- Display: 2 sizes of touch screens available
- RF transmission to control your appliances through
walls and ceilings
- X 10 Home Automation
Finally, styling makes the X10 Touch screen remotes
very attractive for the user: with its blue backlighting,
and its tactile keys, the LCD screen is much more adapted
to the digital household than classical rubber keypad
