		RF Remote The RF Remote provides a convenient and flexible way to control lighting and other systems. Because of its wireless radio frequency capability, users can change presets, turn lights on and off, and raise and lower lights from up to 250 feet away. The RF Remote can also be used to control projectors and projector screens, making it useful for presentation purposes.

	Panelboard Dimming Systems The panelboard dimming systems are designed to control your lighting system efficiently and reliably. When controlled by any of the controllers listed above, the panelboard dimming system allows you to easily set preset levels and fade rates. Some features: Each panel holds between four and 24 universal dimming modules or non-dim relays Highly configurable design allows modules to be easily added or removed, depending on the needs of the facility Capable of controlling incandescent, neon, fluorescent, low voltage, and cold cathode lighting, as well as fans and motors Protection against surges, noise, and flickering Available in white, gray, and black colors

	Custom-Designed Systems Dimming systems can be custom-designed and built according to any lighting need, from exhibit halls to sports arenas to rodeos. Most lighting systems consist of a dimmer cabinet plus a master controller to set presets, time schedules, and other settings. Users can also access their lighting system using the PC, which the lighting system can interface with. From there, it is easy to set light levels and make adjustments. Using a modem, a user could even dial into the lighting system from a remote location and control it from anywhere via phone line.

	Virtual SP/XP/DC Software Users can control a Uni*Star II SP, XP, or DC lighting system using the PC, by installing the Virtual SP/XP/DC software.
