Quick Tips when buying Remote Control
  • Controlling four devices should be the minimum number supported
  • Remotes with a learning mode can be "taught" how to control other devices
  • Macros can perform multiple tasks with one button
  • IR units need line of site while RF units go through walls and furniture but usually requires a device to translate the signal to RF to control the devices
  • Color LCD touch screens found on higher end remotes provide better ease of use.
