Features

The iPod touch™, iPhone™, and iPad™ are incredibly popular devices, and consumers are increasingly looking to integrate them into their control and automation systems. The RTiPanel app not only meets this demand, but has completely redefined the control experience. With unique features including fast connection speeds and full two-way feedback, RTiPanel provides consumers with the control experience they crave through advanced functionality that simply cannot be matched by other apps. A value-added extension to any control system, the graphical user interfaces on the iPod touch, iPad, and iPhone devices can be matched to the consumer's existing RTI in-wall or handheld touchpanel controllers throughout the house, eliminating the need to learn a new remote by providing a consistent interface across all control devices in the system. Unlike other control apps, RTiPanel makes it easy for integrators to provide consumers with all of its amazing capabilities. The app offers simple configuration in both portrait and landscape views through RTI's Integration Designer™ programming software, which was recently inducted into the CEDIA Product Hall of Fame. Integration Designer is a powerful Windows™-based software that allows the entire RTI control system family to be programmed easily from any PC, while providing the essential tools to completely customize the look and feel of the interface. In addition, for simple updating to the interface either locally or remotely, all graphics are stored on the XP series processor.

Benefits

By allowing consumers to conveniently utilize their Apple™ devices in conjunction with RTI's handheld or in-wall controllers - the RTiPanel app ensures that their lighting, security, A/V, and climate systems are never out of reach. The app supports connection locally via LAN and off-site access via WAN or 3G - bolstered with the convenience of automatic switching - for control from virtually anywhere in the world. Providing the "wow" factor and convenience that consumers crave, complete integration with these popular Apple devices allows users to check in on their security systems when across the world on vacation, turn off the home lights from work when realizing they were left on, set the perfect temperature on the commute home, and much more. And since it is a completely customizable solution, the design can be custom-tailored to match their unique tastes, whether they want it to match their existing controllers or provide an entirely new design. For integrators, the RTiPanel makes it easy to provide these benefits to their clients through simple integration of Apple devices into new or existing systems utilizing RTI's XP series control processors.
