PowerTouch III can be set up to control any device: if the device code is not already part of PowerTouch III's extensive library, you can use the Learn feature to teach the device's commands to PowerTouch III. You can also use this Learn function to expand the control capabilities of existing codes. For more information, see "To Customize the PowerTouch III Screen" on page 43. How Do I Identify Devices? 1.
