Control Prog Infrared Transmitter
by Abilia (GEWA) AB
The Abilia (GEWA) Control Prog is a programmable infrared (IR) transmitter with pushbutton function and also scanning with
one- to five-function control switches. The transmitter can learn channels from other remote controls such as those for TV, video
and DVD players that have built-in receivers. Control Prog offers independence and makes everyday life simpler. You can control
everything in your home, like an IR telephone, lights, home entertainment systems, doors, windows, and elevators.
No matter what the user's motor ability and needs are, there are multiple setting
possibilities to simplify the use of the Control Prog. For a person unable to use
direct touch, there are twelve different scanning alternatives. It is possible to
connect one or two single-function switches and scan through the pages of choices.
It is possible to store 241 programmable ("learnable") function positions
distributed over 15 levels. There is a coded channel for security functions that
requires strict authorization such as for apartment or house doors. Level 10 is
pre-programmed to send commands to a PC. For this function a 6632 Access USB
Interface is needed. One or several buttons can be adapted to coding; choose
between 4096 different codes, e.g. for door locking procedures.
There are options to create sequences (macros) so that one button press can send
multiple signals.
The Control Prog uses slip-in overlays to represent functions or levels, making it easy for the user to remember which buttons
produce which signals.
Using the PC-program Control Tool makes back-up possible. For connection to computers, use either the 425620 USB/Serial Data
Cable (USB PC port) or the 425618 Data Cable (serial PC port) for programming, control, and back-up.
The Control Prog is operated with four 1.5V alkaline AAA batteries. Batteries are not included. Keyguard
and neck-strap are included.
The Progress Star USB and Micro USB are stand-alone infrared transmitters for sending infrared signals
from a Windows PC or PC-based AAC device to any infrared receiver. They can learn infrared signals from
commercial electronic devices just like the Control Prog. Unlike the Control Prog, the selection matrix is
displayed on the computer screen or inside cells of a voice communication program, like The Grid 2.
