Hi, firstly im really new to the URC's.... problem is I just cannot find a universal remote that can directly control Home Easy / Varilight RF Lighting/plug sockets.

Please can anyone make any suggestions?

Everything else in my home is IR (fire/blinds/hometheater etc) so it needs to able to learn IR commands also.

Price isn't really an issue atm so i'm open to all suggestions, just need pointing in the right direction.

Many thanks

Since the light dimmers are operating in the 433Mhz range, then theoretically the URC "i" series or RTI remotes should be able to control them. The biggest problem is that no remote can "learn" RF codes, only IR codes. All RF codes have to be taught to the remote through it's programming. There lies your next problem, URC and RTI are both American companies and your lighting control is a British company.

Of course HomeEasy makes a uversal remote you might want to look into: [Link: homeeasy.eu]
