Touch and go

Today's remote control systems are about much more than not having to get out of your chair to change the channel. Whether wall-mounted or hand- held, the new breed of home automation systems are easy to operate and provide convenient control over a wide variety of routine household operations.

Tyro Home Entertainment Systems offers a range of electronic equipment, including comprehensive home automation systems, says director Stephen Tyro.

"Perhaps our most user-friendly, adaptable option is the Control 4," says Tyro. "The Control 4 is a new breed of remote controller, available wall-mounted or hand held. The system provides control over your audiovisual, lighting, security, drapes and heating systems at a glance."

There are several user advantages with the Control 4 system. Firstly, it is simple to understand and just as easy to programme. The clearly laid out, back-lit screen quickly steps even a novice user through every aspect from programming the heat timer to activating your home alarm.

"The system's wireless technology means we can retro-fit a house, without the need for expensive in-wall wiring," he says. "It also means you can build up a system in stages or automate existing systems."
