The Deseo room controller combines simplicity, ease of use and sophisticated technology in an attractive and innovative way. The touch-sensitive operation makes for an elegant, ingenious and user-friendly control of all automatic domestic operations using a tool that is no bigger than a standard switch. An integrated display enables the fast and intuitive use of all functions. For example, a preset lighting for a room can be called up and blinds, thermostats, the heating system, ventilation and air conditioning can be activated at the touch of a switch. What is more, the control console may be used to operate a central music system. Deseo has also been developed for use with KNX/EIB home automation systems. It comes in a range of top-quality materials and finishes, such as brushed aluminium.
