Home Theatre Made Easy With Xantechs New XTR39 LCD Touch-Screen

Touch Wheel Control Offers Quick Scrolling Through Menus and Commands

Sylmar, Calif. — September 26, 2007 — Xantech’s new XTR39 is a stylish, yet simple-to-use LCD touch-screen remote control. Unlike other touch screen remote controls, the XTR39 can be used with one hand and offers the end user incredible feel and balance, along with a vivid 3.9-inch brilliant color touch screen that can be personalized – perfect for the home theater environment.

Installed template projects make set-up quick and easy, thanks to the comprehensive built-in database of more than 10,000 unique IR control codes for most audio or video sources and televisions.

The XTR39’s button layout is fully customizable, and icons can be created for virtually any function or command. Multiple screen pages allow less frequently used buttons to be concealed. A convenient touch wheel control sets the XTR39 apart, allowing quick scrolling through menus and commands.

“XTR39 allows users to control virtually every major home system from the palm of their hand,” said Graham Hallett, president of Xantech. “AV systems, lighting and climate control systems can all be controlled from the XTR39 in an easy-to-use visual interface.”

The XTR39 uses Universal Dragon, Xantech’s proprietary programming software. Using the current version of Dragon 2.1 and the installed templates makes set-up quick and easy. Dragon 2.1 includes a set-up Wizard, which drives the customer through a series of questions about each device the XTR39 is being programmed to control. Dragon also empowers the installer or programmer with more advanced integration needs and nearly endless ways to customize and individualize each XTR39 for each client. Learning IR commands is also easy for older legacy components.

The XTR39 can be combined with the RF2IR base station for advance, no-line-of-sight experience. When coupled with the RF2IR base station, the reach and power of the XTR39 controller becomes endless. The RF2IR base station extends wireless control through walls beyond 100 feet. A single XTR39 can be coupled with up to 256 base stations, making this a formidable control solution. Included are four routable emitters; or the integrated Blast IR can send commands to a stack of components. The RF2IR base station also enables the XTR39 to control a myriad of RS232 devices, like projectors, lighting controllers, plasma or LCD televisions with reliable discreet commands.

The XTR39 can also be used as a wireless touch panel interface to Xantech’s best audio and audio/video distribution platforms, the MRC88 and the MRAUDIO8X8. Offering a Graphical User Interface (GUI) on the XTR39 that matches the in-wall LCD touch panels makes whole-house control of home entertainment or other systems extremely easy for the user to quickly transition back and forth between touch screen controllers. The XTR39 uses Xantech’s proprietary RC68 control codes to improve control reliability when used with a Xantech system.

In Brief: Release Summary
