Introduction
The RFTCP units are hardware-based home automation controllers designed to incorporate all
the power and flexibility of Aspire RF™ Software, powered by
HomeSeer,
into a very
compact, rugged, and easy-to-install unit. The RFTCP is designed to control lighting,
appliances, security, HVAC, and infrared (IR) devices, such as home theater equipment.
Since the RFTCP is an open standards system, the system can be integrated with more than
just Cooper Wiring Devices’ Aspire RF products. Door locks, IR controllers and audio/video
equipment are a few examples of additional supported devices. An open Application Program
Interface (API) is included for programmers to add support for just about any custom or
proprietary systems that may be required.
This system uses HSProtect™ technology to protect the operating system on the hard
disk. You must read and understand how HSProtect works in order to operate the
system properly. See the section on HSProtect for more information.
