Introduction
Intelligent Remote Control
The Intelligent Remote Control can be used for most devices that understand
infrared (IR) remote control signals. Its easy-to-use touch screen and its intuitive
interface makes it a perfect remote control for every user.
The Remote Control (RC) is completely customizable. In the memory of the
Remote Control, RC codes are stored to activate different brands for all kinds of
video and audio devices. The Remote Control is set up by default to operate with
Philips or Marantz devices. When you have other brands, you simply define the
brands of your devices when you use the Remote Control for the first time.
The Remote Control can also learn RC codes from existing remote controls. It is
designed to add devices and functions, relabel buttons, record macros and set
timers. With the ProntoEdit software you create your own control panels and
define your personal look.
