The Net1Card is a network television systems control
SmartCard that is designed to work with Philips
SmartCard televisions in a balanced RF distribution sys-
tem. The Net1Card allows an individual with a unit set in
the Transmitting mode to control all televisions, up to 8
zones of televisions, or a single television, all set in the
Receive mode. The controls include turning the sets on,
setting the volume, and tuning to a specific channel for
live or prerecorded messages or programs. Any Net1Card
can be set up to transmit or receive.
The Net1Card allows the individual with the Transmitter
unit the option to lock out the Receiver units so that the
power, volume, or channels cannot be changed until they
are restored by the Transmitter unit. All of this is done in
a matter of seconds by using an optional T374AH IR
remote control device. (See page 5.) Other features
include the ability to change channels for different mes-
sages, turn off all receiver televisions from a single loca-
tion, send different messages or programs to different
groups or individual sets. The Net1Card is easy to install,
set up, and operate. The Net1Card also has the ability to
poll an individual television to ensure correct systems
operation.
The Net1Card also has composite video input, an S-
Video input, two audio inputs, an RF input, a speaker
jack and a cloning port for easy connectivity to a variety
of media devices.
