iWavit Mitsubishi 7.1
Device: iOS Universal
Category: Entertainment
Price: Free, Version: 1.1 -> 7.1 (iTunes)
Description:This app turns the iPhone into a remote for controlling a Mitsubishi LCD TV. The app requires the Apple-certified iWavit hardware accessory for the iPod touch, iPhone, and iPod. It will not work without it! See www.iwavit.com for more details.
To be specific, the "iWavit Mitsub" app emulates an IR Remote for controlling Mitsubishi LCD TV LT-55265 and LT-40164, although it will also control many other Mitsubishi LCD TVs.
SETUP:
Insert the iWavit Attachment into the iPhone/iPod touch/iPad and you will hear a "gun-cocking" sound indicating that the iWavit has paired successfully with the iPhone. Now you are ready to control your Mitsubishi TV. It's that simple.
FEATURES:
This app is a "Virtual Remote". The layout of the buttons is similar to the remote that ships with Mitsubishi TV. Swipe left-right between 4 screens to get to other buttons.
There are a few notable benefits of iWavit Virtual Remotes over traditional remotes:
1. Buttons are large and easy to hit,
2. Buttons are easily seen in the dark, so no need to turn on the lights in the room just to adjust the volume, and
3. You can have any number of Virtual Remotes without adding to the remote control clutter in your living room.
4. You can use the (optional) iWavit USB Dongle & IR Lightbar as a wireless IR Extender. This means you can be upstairs and still control your TV downstairs. The RF range is over 300 ft.
When you press the buttons on the iWavit Mitsub app, IR signals will be emitted from the front of the iWavit. You will be able to use this app much as you would a regular Mitsubishi TV IR Remote. Moreover, all buttons on this remote are re-programmable. You might, for example, prefer to have certain buttons control your surround sound system instead of the TV volume.
WIRELESS IR BLASTER
It is also possible to use the (optional) iWavit IR Lightbar and USB dongle as a "Wireless IR Extender". Set up is easy. You just hook the iWavit USB dongle (with IR Lightbar) into ANY powered USB socket. The iWavit USB dongle will automatically configure itself to act like a Wireless IR Extender. (Note: You do not need to have WiFi or worry about network passwords at all).
We should point out that the IR lightbar is a very powerful IR blaster with 6 LEDs. This means that the Mitsubishi TV does not even have to be in direct line of sight to the IR Lightbar because the Lightbar will light up the room with invisible IR signals when it blasts. So now you will still be able to control your TV by simply leaning back in your couch and press any button without even pointing the remote. In fact you can walk around your house and be up to 100 meters away and still control devices that are in optical range of the IR Lightbar.
The "iWavit Mitsubishi" app is part of a family of iWavit Virtual Remotes for Major-Brand electronic devices. For those who wish to create their own custom Remote Controls, we have created the Ultimate Remote Control app called "Tabula Rasa." With this app you can create remotes, download remotes, upload remotes to share them, search our limited IR database or learn IR codes directly from your old IR remotes. You can even create macros for embedding multiple functions inside a single button. You can also use the app to control computers using USB Keyboard strokes or through the patented DirectPointing air-mouse technology built into the iWavit.
