Carlsbad,
Calif. – Elan will expand the selection of controllers for its g! System series
of home-control systems with the June shipment of a 10-inch in-wall color LCD
touchscreen.
The
$2,200-suggested TS10 will join 7- and 4-inch
touchscreens, the HR2 handheld remote, g! control apps for Apple’s handheld
devices, and user interfaces appearing on PCs and TVs. All deliver a standardized
interface.
The controllers work with Elan’s $3,000
HC12, $2,400 HC8, $1,950 HC6, and $1,100 HC4 IP-based home-control systems to control
security, climate, lighting,
entertainment, irrigation, and other home systems. They also manage music,
photos, and stored security-camera video.
The 16:9 widescreen TS10 features
composite video for viewing TV sources or security cameras, backlit hard buttons
for frequently used functions, built-in speaker and microphone for messaging, non-volatile
flash memory, and a screen saver mode that displays photo. It is available in
white, almond, light almond, ivory, and black.
Elan
is part of Nortek’s
, which includes the Aton,
NilesSunfire, and Xantech brands.
