Here is what I want to do... I have a home theater with a Philips Pronto remote control that works everything. I want to add inconspicuous
lighting behind my TV so that I can control the ambient lighting behind the set. I also want to be able to control my window blinds and the ceiling fan/light in the theater room. I want to do this all from my Pronto, which is an IR based controller. Of course, I would want this all to be expandable so I can automate other areas of the house as I go. Question: What do I need to buy to do all this?

David,

We have supplied a number of Pronto users with the necessary gear to do what you want.

You would need an IR Transceiver, a lamp module, and an inductive dimmer wall switch or appliance switch (for the ceiling fan). The blinds can also be controlled but it depends on what type of blinds they are. The system would be expandable with up to 16 addressable devices.

Please send us an e-mail if you have additional questions, or visit our web site for more information.
