For questions about your custom programming call:

multi-room system is one of the most challenging tasks within an
audio/video installation. It involves intimate knowledge of how
the components interact and exact details on the proper
sequences of control.

training to quickly and effectively customize a remote control for
true automation.

● Two-Way Metadata Feedback
When the Total Control system is integrated with both
URC and compatible third-party products, the TRC-820
provides two-way feedback in addition to device
control. This includes album art, visual volume
feedback as well as real-time status of devices such as
thermostats, door locks, and cameras.
● User Defined Shortcuts
Quickly access your favorite system functions through a
user-defined shortcut menu. Imagine creating a menu
of one-button solutions that execute your preferred
activities.

The TRC-820, with its integrated pick-up sensor, comes
to life the moment its position is changed. Lift the
remote and it immediately wakes up, turns on the
backlight, illuminates the LCD screen, and instantly
connects to the local Wi-Fi and your Total Control
system.
●Rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery and Charger
Save money by using the included rechargeable lithium
ion battery and charger.
