Key Digital® in conjunction with Compass Control's Compass Alliance Partners (CAP) has created a fully integrated control system with driver support for hardware from the following brands: Aprilaire, Boston Acoustics®, ClearOne®, Denon, Furman, ICRealtime Security Solutions®, iPort®, Key Digital, LG, Lutron®, Luxul, Marantz®, MechoSystems, Onkyo®, Panamax, Primeview, Russound®, SurgeX, and Wolfvision®.  Combining the knowledge and expertise from the different CAP brands has allowed Compass Control® to develop into a complete turnkey residential or commercial control solution.  

Compass Control® has the ability to control devices via RS-232, IR, or via TCP/IP.  This new control system provides installers with bi-directional IR, two-way RS-232 with feedback, and two-way TCP/IP control for unlimited flexibility and maximum compatibility with new or existing devices.  Compass Control® also provides control via relays and sensors demonstrating its nature as a powerful integration tool.  When programming the system via the Compass Navigator® PC editor software, installers are given three separate database managers to make programming faster than traditional control systems.  Compass Navigator® also enables installers to edit command code sets which allows Compass Control® to be tailored to each and every system installation.
