Chapter 1. Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the T2+ universal system controller. The T2+ combines the power and flexibility of a graphic LCD touchscreen with an ergonomic design that permits effortless one­handed operation.

The T2+ takes complete control of the home theater, replacing all other remotes. It features an intuitive, easy to read LCD that can display custom buttons, text, graphics, symbols, and scrolling lists. In addition to the backlit display, 33 “Hard” keypad buttons allow easy access to frequently used functions.
Programming is easy and convenient thanks to the Windows® based TheaterTouch Designer control products are sold only through professional installers/programmers, and never directly to consumers, it is our philosophy to not incorporate programming capability directly into our products.
