US News: NuVo Technolgys' Wireless Control Pad Is Now Available

29 janvier 2009


Ever want total control of your house in the palm of your hand? Well now you can because NuVo technologys’ have released a Wireless control pad. The handheld device (about the size of a smartphone) offers dealers increased installation flexibility, and provides home owners with an attractive, uninvasive way to control their NuVo Grand Concerto and Essentia E6G systems from anywhere in the home.

The sleek, palm-held Wireless Control Pad features a 1.6-inch OLED screen, and is roughly five inches long, two inches wide and less than an inch thick, making it about the size of a smartphone. A user can take the Wireless Control Pad (along with his or her favorite music) anywhere in the home-the breakfast table, the couch, the kitchen, outdoor areas, or anywhere in-wall Control Pads aren’t conveniently accessible-and easily select music or sources on a NuVo multi-room audio system. The Wireless Control Pad also receives metadata and operational feedback from the sources connected to the NuVo system.

David Rodarte, NuVo Technologies’ president and chief operating officer said “Our new Wireless Control Pad enhances our Grand Concerto and Essentia E6G whole-home audio systems with new levels of controllability and versatility. Our preview of this technology at CEDIA EXPO 2008 generated significant excitement among our installing dealers. Now that it’s available, the Wireless Control Pad will open up substantial new possibilities and applications for our installers, particularly in the retrofit market and in their existing customer bases.”

The Wireless Control Pad breaks the previous paradigm of “one in-wall Control Pad per each audio zone.” It can roam from zone to zone in a NuVo system (although it can be permanently tied to a single zone if preferable), and it is particularly compelling as a way to extend NuVo control to the backyard, by the pool or grill, or to any other indoor or outdoor location on a property where an in-wall Control Pad can’t be effectively or conveniently mounted.

The Wireless Control Pad (including Network Coordinator and Charging Dock) is now available for $799 MSRP. Additional standalone Wireless Control Pads (with Charging Docks), which leverage the initial Network Coordinator, are $599 MSRP each. Additional Network Coordinators for large properties are $199 MSRP.
