It’s Under Control® CHAPTER 1 | WELCOME Thank you for purchasing the T2-Cs+ Universal System Controller.

The simplified graphics programming and compact display, combine to bring an advanced color touchscreen to a price level comfortable enough for nearly every budget.
T2-Cs+ CHAPTER 1 | Universal System Controller WELCOME IR COMPATIBILITY The T2-Cs+ and Integration Designer® software are compatible with infrared (IR) commands with carrier frequencies between 15kHz and 460kHz, as well as those commands that do not use a carrier.

It should not be handled with wet hands or placed in an area where it could get wet. Do not subject the T2-Cs+ to smoke, dust, or vibrations.
T2-Cs+ CHAPTER 2 | Universal System Controller INTRODUCTION BATTERY AND DOCKING STATION The T2-Cs+ uses a Lithium-Ion rechargeable battery. This battery does not exhibit any type of “Memory Effect” from being charged too often. Since the T2-Cs+ can safely be charged after each use, a docking station is included for convenience. If left out of the docking station, the T2-Cs+ will remain in sleep mode for 1 – 2 months before shutting down. At that point the battery must be recharged.
