Extron Control for iOS (part number 79-559-01) — turns an iPad or iPhone into a live control point for Extron AV systems.

Extron Control for iOS gives integrators a way to hand room control to a mobile device instead of a fixed touchpanel. After a short initial connection to the room's control processor, the app automatically loads the exact interface already programmed for that space, so the layout on screen matches what's mounted on the wall. Every button press stays synchronized between the phone or tablet and the physical hardware, and Room Manager lets one device store and switch between several rooms.
