OnControls Software Update Adds Apple TV Feature, New Graphics Screens, Controls

OnControls announced its 4.2 software revision that includes two-way IP-based control of Apple TV using a gesture pad or traditional button-style interface. Users can browse and control iTunes content including movies, TV shows, Netflix, Vimeo and photos, said OnControls. Other new features in the upgrade include a device slider for lighting and AV equipment control, a full-screen mode, the addition of horizontal and vertical control for shades, blinds and drapes and a new graphic template called Se7en, which the company said is a new look and feel for control that’s uncluttered and enhanced by customizable screen backgrounds and colors. Access to the Se7en template will be made available to On Controls authorized dealers Monday, said the company.
