GEWA Control PROG

The Control PROG is a trainable infrared remote control.  It can be operated by pressing the keys directly, or by using one or more switches.  The Control PROG has replaced the Prog III.  New features on this model include:

The Control Prog may be operated by pressing directly on the keypad or by using one or more switches.  The scanning pattern and rate can be customised to suit the user.  The Control Prog may also be controlled from a computer using mouse or keyboard commands.  It is possible to use alternative computer access options such as a headmouse, voice input software or an alternative keyboard to control the Prog software.

The GEWA Control PROG is a scanning device, which means that any one of our range of special switches can be plugged in. Clicking a single switch gives the disabled user full and comprehensive control of lights, telephones, alarms, beds, electrical power outlets, TV, video players, and hi-fi components as well as doors, windows, curtains, locks, elevators, page turners and computer access devices. Everything is controlled by the GEWA Control PROG infrared transmitter — by direct selection or scanning techniques.

You can even use your PROG while in bed!
The Bed Switch Mount (below) is attached under the mattress so that the switch and mount will stay close to the correct position, within reach of the user, even when the bed height or location is changed.
