NuVo and HAI Partnership Means Easy Integration for Installers
July 10, 2007, Hebron, KY – NuVo Technologies, manufacturer of whole home audio systems, speakers, source components and related accessories, announces even greater integration with the well-known home automation expert Home Automation Inc. (HAI). In response to NuVo’s December 2006 release of it’s New Grand Concerto whole home audio system, the two companies have been working in conjunction with one another to implement “friendly” software that simplifies integration of their products use in tandem.
The partnership, a real win for installers, means NuVo distributed audio can be integrated into the HAI automation systems out of the box, with virtually no programming, for one complete system that is easy to install and easy to operate. The HAI touch panels offer a realistic portrayal of NuVo’s Control Pads for control of the Grand Concerto and it’s Suite of audio source components: M3 Music Server, T2 Dual Tuner, and NuVoDocks for iPod®. Basic control options are available via RS232 including power, play, pause, source & zone selection, volume control, track forward/backward, fast-forward/rewind, and tune up/down. Additionally, multi-command scene functions using equipment from various manufacturers can be implemented with limited programming.
HAI software version 2.15 or newer implements the new protocol. Previous touch screens can be updated with this version and existing main controllers can be converted inexpensively with the newest HAI chip.
NuVo and HAI have had a long-standing partnership in the industry, with previous integration amongst existing components including integration with the NuVo Six Source, Six Zone Essentia and Four Source, Four Zone Simplese whole home audio systems. Future plans call for increased integration with complete navigation of the NuVo components from HAI’s touch panels, as the companies continue their commitment to integration.
