Home Control

Welcome to the century of the connected home…a time when people have the power to manage their expanding electronic environment simply, easily and naturally.

Audio Video Designs can automate your world. From controlling your theater or family room a/v to elaborate whole house control, we offer automation solutions to fit all your needs.

The Control System Interface is what brings everything together, giving all the home’s subsystems a simple, uniform, and easy to use, single type of control.  Epitomizing everything that is convenient and clever in the connected home, the One Touch Control System is changing the way homes are automated.

Controlling the Home

Lighting, heating and cooling, security, entertainment equipment, pool and spa devices – just about anything in the house that runs on electricity or low voltage can be automated.  It makes sense, then, for these systems to be integrated, to maximize convenience and minimize the number of controls needed.  This is the concept that lies at the heart of “One Touch Control.” By pressing a single button, the house responds as programmed, and each system is adjusted to the appropriate setting.  Touchscreen controllers also allow the individual devices around the home to be adjusted manually if desired, but with the convenience doing it all from a single device.

Total Control

From a wireless touchpanel to a wall mounted control, a series of pre-programmed settings can be activated from a single press, automatically adjusting the systems of a home to any configuration of desired settings.  Before leaving for work, a homeowner can select an “Away” option.  Lights are shut off, the thermostat is turned down, drapes and blinds are lowered, and the security system activates. A “Sleep” setting might set a  predetermined temperature, activate interior and  exterior security devices, turn off lights throughout the house, and instruct the system to raise the home's temperature to a preset level before the alarm clock chimes.
