What is a PILOT touch?
PILOT is a family of environmental control products. Different electrical devices that already have an
infrared remote control can be used with the PILOT touch and / or connected switches. In this way
you can for example control entertainment equipment and lights all with just one remote control.
PILOT touch learns the IR signals from the original remote controls and can replace several of your
remote controls.
PILOT touch can control up to 112 functions in 8 levels (14 functions each). For each button it can
store one icon, one voice recording und up to 4 IR signals (Macro).
PILOT touch can be used with the capacitive touch buttons or through one or two connected
switches (single- or dual-scanning).
During the scanning the display always shows the icon of the current function bigger in the middle
and all other function of the current level on the left and right side. If a voice recording is stored it
you can hear the playback every time the function changes.
When PILOT touch is powered up you can see this picture while loading before the first level is
displayed:
As soon as you can see the first level it is ready to use:
In single-switch scanning the current level is always scanned once.
Starting point is always the selected right column. When the scanning switch is activated the first
option is to change to the next level (to the right, if available), then to the previous level (to the left,
if available) and then to activate the keys of the current level if the scanning switch is hit again.
If there is a voice recording available it will be played when the selection changes.
