How Do I Control Home Automation Equipment?

Your new PowerTouch III comes pre-programmed with codes to control
home automation products manufactured by X-10, Lutron, and Makita.
These products enable you to use PowerTouch III to dim lights, close or
open drapes, and operate non-audio/video equipment. You can even
control home automation equipment as part of a macro. See "Creating
Macros" on page 77 for more information.
PowerTouch III's control feature works using built-in screens specially
designed to emulate the operation of X-10, Lutron, or Makita equipment
remotes. These features require no setup to work with the compatible
products listed.
Simply aim PowerTouch III at the device you want to control, then touch
the icon buttons and settings for the tasks you want to perform.
Do not aim PowerTouch III at your Kenwood receiver—none of the home
automation devices are connected to it.
