The Boom 2000 software automatically configures to remotely control
MP3 tracks on a PC using X10’s handheld remote. The handheld also acts as a universal
remote and can even send commands to X10 modules connected to lights and appliances. The
remote communicates with the Boom 2000 software via a RF receiver that connects to a free
serial port.
The MP3 Anywhere 2000 wireless broadcast system is designed to setup
and install in minutes without requiring punching holes in walls or running additional
wires. Simply plug the Sending unit into the back of a PC. Plug the Receiving unit into
the back of a stereo system. Download any media player available. Install the Boom 2000
software and chill out listening to your favorite tracks and play lists from your MP3
collection. The handheld remote can also control DVD and CD players on a PC.
