Uses and Features
Control4 System Remote Control Version 2 (model # RC Z-
SRC2-B)
is intended for use in a Control4® system. It is
included with the purchase of a Media Controller or Home
Theater Controller, but may also be purchased separately.
This remote control can be used to:
• Navigate system menus and access media databases
on a television or monitor
• Navigate system menus and access media databases
in its own LCD window
• Control system devices
This remote control goes beyond a typical “universal”
remote that simply learns IR codes from TVs, VCRs, CD
players, and DVD players. Features of this device include:
• Bi-directional communication with system components
• ZigBee wireless mesh networking
• LCD with menu that provides full system access
• LCD back-lighting for ease of use in dark rooms
• Media playlists and playing options for stored media
• One-button push to control systems (such as music,
television, or videos)
• Ergonomically designed for comfort
• Standard control features for: Digital Satellite Systems
(DSS), Cable Boxes, TV Tuners, Digital Video Recorders (DVR), DVD Players or Changers, VCRs, TVs,
MP3 Players or CD Players or Changers
• Powered by four AAA batteries (included)

About the Modes
This remote control supports three different modes of
operation:
• On-Screen Navigator mode: In this mode you
access and control all system devices through a monitor or TV on-screen menu (On-Screen Navig a tor).
Press
the Control4 button to access the On-
Screen Navigator home page (or main menu) and
then press a system button (such as Radio or TV) to
display the specific submenu on the TV screen.
• LCD Navigator mode: In this mode you access all
system components through the LCD menu. Press the
LCD button to enter LCD Navigator mode and
display a menu in the LCD and press Cancel to exit.
Once you choose a media source (broadcast or
stored), the remote enters Device-Control mode and
allows you to control the device associated with the
selected media.
Note: The LCD goes to sleep after 15
seconds of inactivity and it will wake up with any button press.
• Device-Control mode: In this mode you use the
System Remote Control to control the selected device.
When devices in the room are off, p
ress RADIO,
MUSIC, TV, or VIDEOS button to enter the Device-
Control mode and begin controlling one of the associated devices. By default, it will be the most recently
used device (such as Multi Tuner) for the selected system (such as Radio) in the current room. The remote
control will continue to control the current device until
another device is accessed.
The current mode affects the remote control behavior. The
following table shows a high-level summary of how
functionality differs from mode to mode.

What’s New in this Model
System Remote Control Version 2 (Model # RCZ-SRC2-B) is
the next generation of Control4 system remotes:
• We renamed, relocated, and replaced several buttons.
• We replaced black rubber with light, glow-in-the-dark
rubber.
• We added device-level programmable buttons so that
installers could program one-button shortcuts.
