Highlights
Universal IR code database
A universal IR code database refers to a library of infrared codes built-in to a particular remote. This feature allows a remote to control your equipment without needing to learn individual signals. Select the correct infrared code sets in the database for the devices you want to control, to enable control of virtually every audio/video system element on the market today regardless of model or brand. macro combines a string of pre-programmed commands under one single button. Therefore, it simply takes one button press to execute a series of functions.

Infrared Capabilities

Learning functionality refers to the process through which a remote control captures and stores infrared signals from other remotes for later use. When device codes are not included in the on-board database, they can always be learned from the original remote, simply by pointing to it.
PC software is included in the box to customize the user interface of the remote i.e. to create your own screens and define a personal look. After installing the software, and creating your user interface, download it to the remote either via RS232, USB or wirelessly.

Radio frequency

Backlight on screen
A radio technology that allows you to control components not in direct line-of-sight, such as through walls or other obstacles. There are two types of RF used in remote controls: RF to component, and RF to infrared.

Future proof

Backlighting is a feature that illuminates the LCD screen or keypad for use in the dark. The two most common types of backlighting include LED and electroluminescent (EL). Remotes backlit with LEDs are typically bright but uneven with a yellow or green color, while EL panels are smooth with blue, white or green shades.
