The TouchPoint touch screens put the finishing touches on any Vantage job.Vantage's TouchPoint family eliminates the need for outdated, wall-cluttering light switches and endless stacks of remote controls. They provide a simple, impressive way to control your automated home, office or building.
TouchPoint 550
The TouchPoint 550 is a color, active matrix LCD touch screen keypad with a backlit display. The quarter VGA LCD 5.5 inch diagonal display is small enough to keep the area from feeling cluttered but versatile enough to fulfill the needs of almost any application. It is available in handheld and in-wall versions.
TouchPoint 890HD and 1210HD
The TouchPoint family welcomed two new additions recently; the TouchPoint 890HD and the TouchPoint 1210HD. The new touch screens give users complete control of lights, audio and video, temperature and even offer Internet capabilities, while supporting streaming media and Web browsing, and are another control point when using the Lifeware solution family.
Check out these touch screen features:
- HDTV support
- 16:9 Widescreen format
- Stereo speakers and condenser microphone
- Automatic Touch-to-Wake power save mode for increased efficiency and energy savings
- Ambient light sensor automatically adjusts screen brightness acoording to room lighting
- Ultra-quiet, fan-driven flow through ventilation
A custom-designed touch overlay allows the maximum amount of the LCD's light image to pass through with reduced diffraction, making thse touch screens brighter than any competing LCD touch screens currently available.
InFusion Integration
Envision a home a home that automatically anticipates all of your needs. Just before going to bed, you roll over and touch the "Good Night" button, which turns on the motion activated outdoor lights, arms the security system, closes all the blinds and shades and gently fades off all the lights in the house. A networked home, office, boardroom or classroom can have a variety of subsystems, including window treatments, distributed audio and video, security, heating and air conditioning and lighting. InFusion brings them together in harmony, offering a third-party device library with easy drag-and-drop components, making integration of third-party solutions so much easier.
Distributed Audio
With InFusion you can control your personal music collection in every room of your home with nothing more than an elegant touch screen. Your music can also be effortlessly controlled through a handheld remote or wall-mounted control keypad.
Theater Control
Sitting in your home theater, you lightly press the button labeled "Movie" and the shades are drawn, the lights are dimmed, the projection system turns on along with the surround-sound system and the movie starts. InFusion manages all of today's technology and provides complete control to every system in your house.
Climate Control
InFusion integrates seamlessly with temperature controls as well. Always keep your home at your personal comfortable level. Set the house to start warming up just before you have to wake up, or automatically set temperatures back during the nighttime to save on your utility bill. You can even use outside weather information to control aspects of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning inside.
Security
Feel safe and protected in your house or office building by integrating a security system with InFusion. Security cameras can be simply integrated into a Vantage system with InFusion, making it easy for you to monitor your front door or driveway and know who's coming to your house. Incorporating a security system into your Vantage system has never been easier.
Window Treatments
InFusion can manage natural light. Motorized blinds, drapes, shades, shutters, awnings and even windows themselves, can be controlled with a touch of a button. Vantage systems have astronomical time clocks that track sunrise and sunset, so your environment can respond to sunlight year round. Now protect your sun-sensitive carpets, fabrics and artwork, plus maintain privacy and security, while continuing to enjoy the light and view when appropriate.
