General Description
The Control4 System Remote Control is the handheld remote control for a
Control4 system. It is included with the purchase of many Control4
controllers, but may also be purchased separately.
The System Remote Control plays an important role in Control4 system
navigation and input. Use the remote control to access on-screen menus
and to control associated devices. It goes beyond a typical "universal
remote" that simply learns IR codes from TVs, VCRs, CD players and DVD
players; It uses Zigbee for two-way wireless communication. The signal
travels through walls and does not require a direct line of site to the receiver.
The remote control is powered by four AAA batteries and features controls
for personal settings, DVR, DSS, numeric keypad, and four-line LCD screen
with backlight that displays remote status and system information.
About the System Remote Control
The System Remote Control is approximately 2.5 x 8.5 inches.
The remote control can be divided into these sections:
1. LCD with Display Button, and Power Button
2. Subsystem Buttons
3. Navigation Buttons
4. Control Buttons
5. Alpha-Numeric Keypad
LCD with Display Button, and Power Button
LCD—Provides display area for information related to system activity. It
uses reverse video to show a selected item. It includes a white backlight that
is triggered by any button press and stays lit for 15 seconds after inactivity.
Display button—Toggles the remote and its LCD display between
Control4 Menu (Setup mode) and Control4 Remote (On-Screen and
Controller modes).
Power button—Turns the power to the device currently being controlled
On or Off.
Subsystem Buttons
Subsystem buttons control the device or software you specify during the
controller setup process. The installer identifies the system components in a
a certain room and associates the remote control with the room.
—Displays the On-Screen Home page, which displays current location
with a drop-down list of other location options, and provides access to all
subsystem pages.
TV—Displays TV grid and sets current zone for TV. In Video mode this will
launch the Control4 GUI.
Movies—Displays your DVD collection from a DVD Changer or HDD
system. It should launch a Control4 GUI.
Radio—Displays Personal Radio Playlist for AM, FM, XM, Sirius or Net
Radio on the LCD. If the system is in a video mode the Control4 on-screen
user interface launches. This sets the current zone to tuner.
Music—Displays playlist for CD Changers or HDD storage systems on LCD
in video mode the Control4 GUI should launch. This will set the current zone
to listen to stored media on the hard drive.
Lights—Displays a list of lighting scenes and/or loads On-Screen or in the
LCD screen. It should also launch a Control4 GUI when in video mode.
Comfort—Displays temperature-related and lighting-related devices, such
as motorized blinds, curtains, or ceiling fans.

launch a Control4 GUI when in video mode.

This is a 10-button alpha-numeric keypad (0-9) with an asterisk * and pound
# key, just like the keys found on a telephone. Use these to directly choose a

change one digit at a time:

2. Press a button repeatedly to toggle through its alpha-numeric options (for
