MX-880 Universal Remote Control
The MX-880 Universal Remote Control offers the perfect solution to simplifying the operation of home electronics by eliminating the clutter of multiple remote control units.
The MX-880 features a user-friendly interface with an-easy-to-read two-inch color LCD screen. When you pick up the MX-880, it automatically lights up and displays six buttons that change depending on the audio or video source. For instance, if you select "Watch TV," you will see a list of buttons that are useful to that activity, while if you select "Watch DVD," the buttons will control the DVD player. When the MX-880 needs charging, simply plug in the charger and continue to use the remote as you would normally.
The MX-880 can be set up for either IR (infrared) or RF (radio-frequency) operation. IR operation utilizes an infrared light source, so you point the remote directly at a device to control it. Equipping your home with a custom-programmed MX-880 in each room is one solution to simplifying the operation of home entertainment components; however, if your goal is to achieve automation of items throughout the house, then an RF system is the answer. Imagine having the ability to instantly transform your living room into a theater so you can watch the big game or your favorite movie. With the touch of a single button on your Universal® remote, you can turn on your TV (or lower your projector and screen), select the correct input on your receiver, adjust room lighting for proper viewing and turn on the surround-sound with the volume adjusted to your preferred level. With the optional Universal Complete Control Base Station, the MX-880 can be programmed to control every electronic component in your home, including lighting, window treatments, air-conditioning, and even the garage door, from a single remote control unit.
Universal PSX-2 iPod Dock
Imagine plugging in your iPod and being able to control it remotely through any TV in the home! The Universal PSX-2 iPod dock allows you to combine the simplicity of your Universal Remote with the functions of your iPod to create an easy-to-navigate whole home music and entertainment server. More than just a docking station, the award-winning Universal PSX-2 allows you to broadcast your favorite music, videos or movies throughout the entire home from a single source.
As a music server, the PSX-2 displays album cover art, artist and track information directly on your TV screen. The PSX-2 includes software for both Macs and PCs, automatically synchronizing any new content added to your iTunes library to your iPod.
The PSX-2 allows you to enjoy your iPod in ways you never thought possible. With the press of a button, you'll be able to find all your favorite music. When you hear a song you enjoy, instead of having to browse through hundreds of artists in your collection, just press the "Play More From this Artist" button. An advanced search function lets you sort music quickly by name. Additional operations like "Shuffle this Genre," are only one touch away.
Arranging the perfect music for any event is an easy and enjoyable activity with the PSX-2. You can freely play your music, browsing and shuffling as you like, and when you hear something you'd like to add to your Jukebox playlist, simply touch "Add Song to Jukebox" or "Add Album to Jukebox" on the Jukebox screen. To play the jukebox you've created, simply touch "Play Jukebox."
