SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The
SmartPad LCD
is a complete control system in a single box – meaning, no extra controller box is
necessary. Simply connecting a power supply and connecting the
SmartPad LCD
outputs to any standard
Xantech IR bus, makes a complete IR Repeater System. By adding the optional RS422/232 converter, you now
can literally control almost any Audio Video or Home Automation component. The SPLCD is also directly
compatible with the MRC-88

SmartPad LCD
is easily programmed with DragonDrop-IR Software via an RS232 or USB Port (Program cables
and software included). DragSPLCD is used to graphically design your screens and assign IR and/or RS232
Macros. An internal IR Library is also included for ease of programming.
The
SmartPad LCD
can be wired into numerous simultaneous application configurations such as outlined below
