RTIís T1 Universal Handheld Remote Puts Total Control At The Fingertips; Powerful Universal System Controller Fits Within Every Budget

12-Jul-04

Remote Technologies Incorporated (RTI), announced the release of its powerful new T1 Universal System Controller. This sophisticated handheld remote gives the consumer complete and intuitive control over their home theaters, as well as multi-room audio, and more all with little to no operating instruction. Scheduled for release this summer, the T1 (MSRP: $299) will be available to custom installers nationwide. ìThe T1 Universal System Controller is exceptionally easy to use and highly affordable, making it one of our most accessible universal controllers ever,î said Pete Baker, Director of Sales at RTI. ìInstallers can easily integrate all functions of their customerís home enter-tainment system into one easy-to-use remote, providing them an affordable and intuitive control solution that adds tremendous value to every job. We think installers will find the T1ís versatility second-to-none.îThe T1 Universal System Controller features eight source and four general-purpose buttons with interchangeable keycaps, plus 38 fully programmable, macro-assignable keypad buttons. Their intuitive layout eliminates the frustrating button hunt that plagues use of many universal remotes. Plus, the T1 measures at an incredibly thin 1.1 inches, and weighs just 7 ounces, making access to the entire remote comfortable and easy to navigate. The T1 provides extremely wide IR transmission. The T1 was designed as a complete solution for controlling any size audio/video system, but when combined with RTIís family of control accessories and standard IR emitters, it becomes the key to a professional grade control system. The RP-6 Remote Processor, optional video and voltage-sensing modules, and RS-232 interface give installers freedom to tailor a precise control system over any number of rooms. RTI has taken the drudgery out of programming functions with its Windows-based TheaterTouch Designer Software. The field-upgradeable software has been perfected over a decade to be the simplest and most complete programming interface available. It operates on any PC and lets installers create, store, and drag and drop macros, IR codes, and bitmaps-testing designs right on screen-for repeatable and reliable results every time. The T1ís non-volatile Flash memory means system configurations stay in tact even when battery power is gone. The T1 includes a Lithium-Polymer battery and docking station. Batteries charge in 4 hours, boast a 30-day stand-by, minimum continuous run-time of 20 hours, and an average run time of 15 days under normal use.T1 Technical Specifications:Power: 3.6 VDC, 1050 mA Lithium-Polymer Battery PackInfrared Control Range: 30 feet (9.1m) @ 60-degreesInfrared Transmission Range: 15 kHz - 460 kHzRadio Frequency Control Range: Up to 100 feet (30.5m)Nominal Run Time on Full Charge: 20 hours min., continuous useStandby Time on Full Charge: 30 daysBattery Charge Time: 3-4 hoursTotal System Memory: 256K (non-volatile) Flash memoryDevice Capability: Total number of devices limited only by memoryMacro Capability: Macro capability on every buttonCommunications: USBWeight: 7 oz. w/ battery packDimensions: 9.25-inches L x 2.5-inches W x 1.1-inches DWarranty: One year (parts & labor) - 90 Days on batteryMSRP: $299.00For additional information on RTI and products, please visit www.rticorp.com.
