New Products Provide Installers and Integrators with a Broad Range of Powerful, Leading-Edge Remote Control and AV Automation Solutions

Universal Remote Control, Inc., the leader in remote control design and manufacturing for home and professional entertainment systems, showcases a broad selection of its Complete Control(tm) line of remote control devices at the Integrated Systems Europe Expo starting today in Amsterdam.

URC products combine the latest advances with operational simplicity, enabling installers to easily set them up and consumers to easily use them. Whether clients need universal/learning remotes, a database of IR codes, wireless keyboards, or special proprietary and/or custom wireless input devices, URC can design and manufacture the right device, to exact specifications, within the timeframe required.

At ISE, URC's showcased products include the new MSC-400 Master System Controller, which seamlessly harnesses the power of sophisticated home entertainment systems while taming their complexity, and four powerful, compatible URC remote controls with which the Controller is designed to operate. The remotes include new versions of the MX-3000 and MX-950, and the new MX-900 and TX-1000.

The MSC-400 system and its family of handheld remotes deliver exceptional ease-of-use and maximum enjoyment to the whole family. At the same time, it provides unmatched levels of flexibility, automation power, installation speed, and superior programming and diagnostic capabilities.
