Philips Pronto TSU9600

The sensational looking Philips Pronto gives you complete control of your AV entertainment, lighting and on-line music throughout your entire home. So why not complement it with the comfort, convenience and control that Philips Pronto brings.

Personalised Convenience
Pronto’s ergonomic design, with a button layout for both one- and two-handed control, features a full VGA screen that is easy to see, read and control from any angle. The display’s superb contrast, vivid colors and high pixel density show channel icons, images and text in stunning detail. ‘Soft-touch’ paint and a stylish docking station with subtle lighting, give Pronto a unique look and feel.

Ultimate simplicity
The fully customizable graphical user interface matches your personal taste and preferences. To simplify operation, Pronto works with ‘activities’ rather than individual pieces of equipment. So if you want to ‘watch a movie’, you simply activate it with one touch or one button. No need to activate separate units, and no getting lost in complex menus!

Reliable home control
With full multi-room operation, you are in control of your home entertainment both in and around the house. It controls hidden equipment (in cupboards) and equipment in other rooms. A long battery life per recharge ensures reliable operation, while exclusive system feedback information guarantees problem-free system use for many years.

Music, mood and ambiance
Pronto operates all IR-controlled AV equipment and provides wireless control throughout your entire home in combination with ultra-reliable WiFi extenders. It also operates the Escient Fireball and Windows Media Centre PCs with full onscreen feedback, for example showing information on the currently plaing song. It is easily expandable too, so you can update it as new functions become available. It’s your home, your choices and your style.

The Pronto brings you
• Total home entertainment control
• Intuitive user interface that works in terms of activities
rather than pieces of equipment
• Works with every brand and model of equipment,
and can ‘learn’ codes not included in its code library
• New home control functions - Escient Fireball Media Servers

RFX9600 Serial Extender

Used in addition to the TSU9600, the serial extender takes home control to a new level, allowing the Pronto to communicate over Wi-Fi, adding a wide variety of extra control methods, including:

• RS232, allowing you to control complex device such as the Speakercraft Multi-room controller, as well as lighting such as the Evolution system.
• Contact Closures can be used to control projector screens, TV lifts and curtains.
• Power Sensing can be used to make sure your devices are exactly as you want them, saving time when running long macros.
• Feedback Indication using coloured LEDs makes troubleshooting the system easier
