RF

Short for Radio Frequency.

RF code

You can choose to operate your devices with RF signals instead of IR
signals. To use RF signals, you need an RF Extender. The advantage of
RF is that it spreads in all directions and that it pervades walls. In other
words, you can operate your devices from an adjacent room.

RF Extender

An RF Extender is a converter box that receives RF signals and turns
them into IR signals to operate devices. When your ProntoPro NG sends
out RF codes, the RF Extender receives them and sends out IR codes to
your devices.

Settings Tool

The Settings Tool allows you to consult and adjust several settings, for
instance consulting the battery level, setting the date and time,
calibrating the touch screen, ...

Simulator

ProntoPro NG simulator is a separate application in ProntoProEdit NG
package, which simulates every aspect of your ProntoPro NG. You use
ProntoPro NG simulator to test your PCF without the need to download it
to your ProntoPro NG. When you make changes in ProntoPro NG
simulator, they will not be saved in the configuration file.

Soft button

A soft button is a button that can be found on the touch screen. The
layout and the visual aspects of a soft button can be changed. You can
also configure the functions of the soft buttons.

Timer

A timer allows you to define actions to be carried out at predefined
times. For instance, you can set an alarm or program your VCR to record
your favorite daily TV-show.

Touch screen

The touch screen of your ProntoPro NG is the centered area that
contains soft buttons you can use to operate the remote control.

USB

USB (Universal Serial Bus) is a ‘plug and play’ interface between a
computer and add-on devices (such as audio players, joysticks,
keyboards, telephones, scanners, and printers).
