Utilizing
Network Connection, Driver Simplifies Integration and Provides Users With
One-Button Access to webOS Apps
SHAKOPEE,
Minn. — Aug. 7, 2019 — RTI, a leading control and
automation manufacturer, today announced that the company has developed a driver for IP control of select 2018 and
2019 LG AI ThinQ TVs, including OLED and select NanoCell models. By utilizing a
network connection, the new driver simplifies the integration of LG TVs into
RTI automation and control systems to provide consumers with premium control
options.
With
the driver released today, integrators can provide their clients with direct
one-button access to external sources and up to 10 webOS apps on LG TVs, such
as Hulu, Netflix, or YouTube. Users can control the screens using the RTI
interface of their choice, where they can view feedback on volume levels, the
current source/app input, and more. By connecting to the LG displays via the
network, the driver eliminates the need for integrators to run additional IR
emitters or serial cables.
“LG
has been producing televisions for over 60 years, and its technology has
evolved to deliver an absolutely stunning home entertainment experience,” said Ed McConaghay, CEO of RTI. “We couldn’t be more excited to
make it simpler for integrators to incorporate these popular displays into
their customers’ RTI systems, and to provide users with one-button access to
their favorite content sources.
“At LG, we
only team up with the most trusted names in home automation, and we are pleased
to add RTI to our list of partners,” said Joseph Colombo, CI Technical Manager for
LG. “With the company’s new driver, dealers can seamlessly integrate our latest
displays into their customers’ smart homes to deliver a full-featured control
experience.”
