Introduction
The Control4® HC-250 Controller (HC-250) provides
ways to control lights, home theaters, distributed
audio and video systems, and other devices
controlled by Infrared (IR), IP, Serial, Contact, or Relay
connections. The Controller has a fast processor,
built-in WiFi, HDMI for audio and video, improved
ZigBee radio, and is perfect for smaller systems!
The HC-250 also provides extensive media
management for audio and video content: CDs,
DVDs, and Blu-ray Discs, or digital media stored on
connected devices. Use an external storage device
with USB or NAS connectivity which supports multi-
zone audio capabilities, sending music to various
rooms throughout the home. The HC-250 fits easily
behind a TV, stacked with AV devices, or mounted on
a rack using the Rack Mount Kit (sold separately).
After you install and configure the HC-250 (using the
Composer Pro software) along with other system
components, your customers can control their
system using the On-Screen Navigator, MyHome
apps, System Remote Controls, Touch Screens, or
any other Control4-supported interface devices (sold
separately).
