Quality IPTV System
Remote Control
Cotswold can provide two options for the remote control, which can be supported on Amino STB
The options are an IR remote control or an IR/RF remote control.
The IR remote control will require an IR receiver to be visible and connected to the STB via USB dongle
IR/RF remote control communicates to the STB via RF requiring no IR receiver allowing the STB to be hidden. Both remotes communicate to the TV set via IR.
Each IR/IF Remote is paired to the individual client, this mean that remotes cannot interfere with other STBs in the same area.
