ProntoPro NG ProntoPro NG is a universal remote control with a touch screen. You can customize and fully configure ProntoPro NG to your personal needs: the devices you want to operate, the functions you want to perform and the layout on ProntoPro NG.

ProntoProEdit NG ProntoProEdit is the visual editor for creating and configuring ProntoPro

 

Configuration Files.

RF

Short for Radio Frequency.

RF code

You can choose to operate your devices with RF signals instead of IR

 

signals. To use RF signals, you need an RF Extender. The advantage of

 

RF is that it spreads in all directions and that it pervades walls. In other

 

words, you can operate your devices from an adjacent room.

RF Extender An RF Extender is a converter box that receives RF signals and turns them into IR signals to operate devices. When your ProntoPro NG sends out RF codes, the RF Extender receives them and sends out IR codes to your devices.

Settings Tool The Settings Tool allows you to consult and adjust several settings, for instance consulting the battery level, setting the date and time, calibrating the touch screen, ...

Simulator

ProntoPro NG simulator is a separate application in ProntoProEdit NG

 

package, which simulates every aspect of your ProntoPro NG. You use

 

ProntoPro NG simulator to test your PCF without the need to download it

 

to your ProntoPro NG. When you make changes in ProntoPro NG

 

simulator, they will not be saved in the configuration file.

Soft button

A soft button is a button that can be found on the touch screen. The

 

layout and the visual aspects of a soft button can be changed. You can

 

also configure the functions of the soft buttons.

Timer

A timer allows you to define actions to be carried out at predefined

 

times. For instance, you can set an alarm or program your VCR to record

 

your favorite daily TV-show.

Touch screen

The touch screen of your ProntoPro NG is the centered area that

 

contains soft buttons you can use to operate the remote control.

USB

USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a ‘plug and play’ interface between a

 

computer and add-on devices (such as audio players, joysticks,

 

keyboards, telephones, scanners, and printers).
