R200 Owner’s Manual
Introduction
Your HomeSet R200 Remote Control works with the HomeSet
C200 Control Hub for easy, handheld control, and automation of
electronic components in your home (audio/video and home
entertainment devices such as lights, thermostats, security
systems, and more) to make life more enjoyable. The R200 is a
wireless remote that is installed as part of a HomeSet system by
your smart home professional.
The R200 is a Wi-Fi based Remote and does not use “line of sight”
infrared (IR) or low frequency RF. It’s the perfect accessory
companion for your TV room or bedroom.

R200 Remote Control
By using the R200, you gain two-way control of you connected
devices. “Two-way” means that in addition to data being sent to
an electronic component (such as a Nest Thermostat), data I also
returned to your remote so you can see graphical information of
current status, including the current temperature in the home and
more. Adding the HomeSet Mobile App for Android™ and iOS
devices provides the same two-way feature.

Notice
Before Getting Started
Keep in mind the following:
●Designed for use on your local wireless network
The HomeSet R200 Remote Control is designed for use on
your wireless network similar to how your phone, tablets, or
computers work. Used in conjunction with a HomeSet C200
Base Station, the R200 can also control your home’s A/V
devices. By using a local wireless network connection, the R200
can control your system without being in line-of-sight of the
equipment by sending commands over your home network.
●Programmable via a web page interface by an authorized
programmer
To fully automate your home entertainment, comfort, and
security system you professional programmer will gather
knowledge of devices in your home and settings on your local
Ethernet network in order to get things ready for your
installation. They’ll then use HomeSet’s web-based
programming software to download and save your system file
on HomeSet’s server.
