Lighting Control

Typically remotes use infra-red light for sending commands to devices, the problem is that this method requires “line-of-sight” to the device and DOES NOT work through walls, floors or cabinet doors. Use an optional RF base station to eliminate the need to point the remote and the ability to control your gear through those cabinet doors…or from another room!!

Who watches television or movies with all of the lights ON? Are you the type of person that likes the lights to be OFF? Imagine that control, right at your fingertips with URC Lighting p
