This is the first version of the DÆ Remote v0.1. The remote is used to control the DÆ Modular Stepped Attenuator.

Features:

- Capacitive touch key technology allows for ultra thin construction. The main body is only 6 mm thick!

- Bluetooth radio link to the attenuator so the no line of sight to the attenuator is required.

- An LED back light that is turned on by proximity sensing so the back light is illuminated when your hand approaches. A light senor is provided so the back light is always the right intensity. The back light is bright in a well lit room and is dimmed when the lights in the room are lowered.

- A rechargeable lithium battery to power the remote for up to three months between charges.

- A USB connector to allow charging from any powered USB port or with a cable and wall dongle. The remote back light will flash while charging; the flashing will stop when the battery is fully charged.

- An on/off switch so the remote can be switched off for an extended storage.

- After 15 seconds of inactivity, the remote goes into a “sleep” mode to conserve battery power. While in “sleep” mode, the remote is disconnected from the attenuator. This allows the attenuator to be controlled with the smartphone app. Switching the remote off also allows the attenuator to be controlled with the smart phone app.
