About the T4 Handheld Controller
The T4, winner of the coveted CEDIA Electronic Lifestyles Manufacturer's Excellence Award and Electronic House's 2006 Product of the Year Award, is the ideal turnkey solution for users who want complete access to all the functions of their home theaters.
Featuring direct IR control for stand-alone operation, RF output for control processor operation, WiFi for IP control and internet access, and even hard-wired Ethernet and analog video input options, the T4 maintains the perfect balance between display size and resolution. At 6.4 inches, the LCD is small enough to be a truly hand-held device, yet it provides the full VGA resolution necessary for displaying video windows and web pages.
The controller is easily programmable using RTIs signature TheaterTouch Designer software, making it simple to display custom buttons, text, graphics, and animations. In addition to limitless software customization, the T4 provides outstanding hardware adaptability. The unit's front and rear panels will have replaceable color bezels to match consumers' tastes, and even the color of the 13 available hard buttons can be changed or removed entirely. The T4's flexibility extends beyond its appearance, the EM-4 Expansion Module allows it to be transformed into a hardwired VESA mountable touchpanel with power-over-Ethernet and dual analog video input ports. In addition, available RTI accessory devices provide the T4 with power-sensing for reliable operation, and RS-232 communications for advanced control.
The T4 is available exclusively through authorized dealers.

Combined with the other RTI TheaterTouch products, the T3 becomes a robust commercial-quality control system.
The T3 takes complete control of the home theater, replacing all other remotes. The bright, high-contrast TFT LCD displays custom buttons, text, graphics and animations. In addition to the backlit display, there are 16 hard buttons which allow easy access to frequently-used functions.
