Crestron HR-150-B – Handheld Remote, 50 Button, Black

Product Overview

The Crestron HR-150-B is a 50-button handheld RF remote control in black, designed for use with Crestron home automation and AV control systems. It provides direct button-based access to up to 50 programmable functions without requiring a touchscreen, making it well suited for users who prefer tactile, labeled button control for home theater, lighting, shading, and audio systems. The RF radio allows operation without line-of-sight to the control system receiver.

Product Description

Handheld remotes with physical buttons remain the preferred control interface for end users who value simplicity and reliability over touchscreen complexity. The HR-150-B provides 50 buttons that can be programmed via the Crestron control system to execute any combination of macros, scene recalls, device control, and system commands. The black finish is the standard color option and suits home theater environments where a dark remote is preferred to minimize visual distraction during viewing. The RF radio eliminates the need to point the remote directly at an IR receiver, allowing control from anywhere in the room and through cabinet doors. The HR-150-B is typically used in residential master controls and media rooms as the primary or secondary user interface for systems that do not require a touchscreen.
