DUSKY SKY CONTROLLER
0810b2 0710
"Introduction
Dusky Control are the leading suppliers of controllers to allow Sky digiboxes to be controlled from PCs and home automation systems.
Our controllers allow you to control:
* standard Sky digibox * Sky+ * Sky HD * Foxtel iQ models DC460 and DS460 (but not model 480 and not Foxtel iQ2) * Foxtel Pace 420
The range includes units that can be controlled both from both USB or RS232 connections. Controllers are available that can control one, two or more satellite receivers.
The controllers all attach to the RF2 port on the satellite receiver and send commands to it using the same protocol that the sky 'magic eye' / tvlink devices use. This means there is no infra-red communication, making our controllers very easy to install, fast and 100% reliable"
