Kramer RC-8iR Audio Visual (AV) System Controller

Grant's Perspective on ... the RC-8iR a simple wall plate AV system controller with tremendous power.

Kramer has a simple 8 button AV system control wall plate that programmers, integrators and clients love. With only 8 buttons, the unit is very user-friendly but allows for some fairly sophisticated programming. See the photo below taken at an Inland AV installation.



Pressing the "on" button can set up the entire system by lowering the projection screen, turning on the projector, dimming the lights and powering up the audio system. The RC-8iR has infrared capabilities and can learn the functions of IR remotes. It can also be controlled via IP meaning that the system can be set up to be controlled from anywhere a person has internet access. This is a great feature for AV technicians working at a large university institution.

The screen capture below is a Flash demonstration of the RC-8iR wall plate at the Kramer Canada website. Click through the text links and give it a try! Please note you need to click on the Product Overview button to view the interactive room simulation.



I have installed hundreds of these and they have always been well received.
