We put up a video as well as tutorial on how you can now remotely skin the iphone remote edition application.  This function allows you to overwrite the default icons in the application with your own.  Also you can provide your skin to the community to share with others or load it locally via your own web server if you want to keep it private.

 It will not have the security functions and profiles in the initial release though.  Other than that it will have the main IR functionality such as IR dbase support, learn IR functionality, macro support, prebuilt GUI for device types, etc.  So basically you can set this all up in less than 1/2 hour for many setups.

It will be missing punch through support in the initial version but you can override buttons with learned IR so you can basically punch through manually for now until we add it in.

On the hardware side it will support the bitwisecontrols BC4 and HAI HTX Home Theater Extender

Should be released within the month directly via our website.

• Relay Support
• Setup & Control of Relays can be found under the 'devices' tab.
• You can add direct relay control or use the timer function to automatically switch a relay after starting it.
• Full tutorial can be found here:
• Remote Edition: Relays Tutorial
• 
• Beta 3G cellular support
• 3G cellular support although the commands run much slower with this method.  best to use regular functions on wifi and 3g cellular for one-off controls like for remote lighting.
• Auto-discovery Box feature
• In the Box setup area there is now an AutoDiscover button.  clicking this button will automatically try to locate a box which is on the same network and populate the ip address automatically in the ip address field of that box setup.  Just save the box from there.

v1.3 has been approved and is now available via the Apple App Store.  The updates include:

1. 'start in' at the device GUI level.  With this functionality you can now select actual installed 'devices' to start into when using a profile.  This option will allow you to start right into the GUI of the device you choose from your devices list.
• With this new functionality + the auto start profile function you can now auto start a profile and have it automatically drill down to the devices for a category/subcategory.  By selecting a 'device' to 'start in' you can now extend that one level further and start right into a device GUI. The end result is an example such as: you only have 1 profile and you always want to start right into your cable box GUI as that is what you always want to use it for initially. Now when you open the app it will auto start everything right into the Cable Box GUI so you can just start controlling the device right away. you can always slide back out to the device list, jump to other tabs, etc. from there if you want.
2. Macro support.  We now support macros via the Bitwise unit.  All macros are called via the 'macros' button located at the top/middel of any device GUI.  There are 2 stages to the macro support.
1. Stage 1: Setup the macro in the Bitwise Project Editor.  This windows application software is normally a seperate purchase/cost from the Bitwise unit however if you purchase the Bitwise hardware through Total Control it will be available for free.  Please contact directly for more information regarding this program.
2. Stage 2: Setup the macro in the Total Control application.  This is a very simple setup consiting of a descriptive name for your macro + the macro # from the Bitwise Project Editor that you uploaded to the Bitwise Unit.
3. Punch Through - Punch To Support.  You can now map buttons from one device to the same buttons on another existing device.  i.e. You have a Cable Box GUI that you like to use however you want to control your tv or a/v receiver volume when using the volume button on the Cable Box GUI.  you can now override the Cable Box GUI with an existing device's same button (in this case the tv or a/v receiver volume buttons).  This way you no longer have to slide between devices to similar controls.
4. Volume Button Change.  Volume button was changed from continuous IR to:
1. Single click = single volume IR command
2. Long press on volume button = continuous IR until button is released
    

1. fixed bug in learning feature.

2. added support for auto profile start.  you can now automatically start any single profile without having to click to enter it.  this function coupled with the 'start at' function can allow the application to start directly into a device listing section of the application.

 you can select the profile to autostart in the 'admin' section of the application.  towards the bottom you will find 'Profile List'.  Click 'Start with:' (pic 1) to slide into the available profile or choose none to turn off (pic 2).  Once you have chosen which profile or none click the red 'Update' button (pic 1) to save.  

Now exit the application and start it again to run it with the profile autostart function applied. 

To utilize the 'start at' function edit an existing Profile and at the bottom you will see the 'start at' field (pic 3).  Click the field and you will be presented with your start at choices (pic 4).  you will need to create the categories and sub categories before being able to select them here.   Select where you want that profile to auto start at and save the edited profile.
