About Nevo

Congratulations, your PDA now includes Nevo, the new evolution in home control from Universal Electronics, the leader in wireless control technology. Nevo transforms your PDA into a sophisticated and easy-to-use wireless home control and automation device. With Nevo, accessing every infrared (IR) controlled device in the home or office has never been easier or faster. Control more than 20 device types, such as televisions, VCRs, DVDs, audio, lights, fans, and other home automation devices.

Overview of Nevo’s Features

Besides controlling your devices, Nevo also allows you to:

Set up your favorite channel for easy, one-touch access.

Organize devices by the rooms in which they are located.

Share Nevo with other family or team members (called users) and allow them to maintain their own unique settings for devices and activities.

Create one-touch access (macro) to switch between activities that involve interacting with more than one device. For example, you could assign the name “Watch DVD” to a series of commands that dims the lights in your family room, turn on the DVD player and press Play.

Configure the look and feel of Nevo to reflect your personal perferences.
