This is a dynamic feature that offers the user a way of controlling the total volume of all components that are connected to this device in the user’s system, considering even those without their own built-in volume control such as VCR and DVD. This further saves the user the hassle and inconvenience of constantly needing to switch between the remote’s component modes.
2. Higher user’s Learning Capability
Whether old or new, the RF20 can actually learn commands from all the other remote controls, each button at a time, and so it will always be able to be updated and it won’t become obsolete. Therefore, with time and even with the evolution of remote devices, the RF20 should remain consistent.
