Control Systems & Automation

Bring the room’s everyday functions into a clear set of controls. We design and program AV interfaces and automation around the ways people meet, present, teach, and run events.

Discuss your projectSee what is involved

Start with what
people need to do.

People use a room to run a session, not to manage each piece of equipment. The controls should make the required actions clear, whether that is sharing a laptop, adjusting the sound, or preparing the room for a call.

We agree those actions with your team, then work through what needs to happen behind them. Source selection, audio routing, displays, and camera settings can be coordinated where the selected equipment supports it.

The level of control depends on the room. Everyday users may need a small set of room modes, while an event operator needs access to more detailed adjustments.

From room modes to working controls.

01

Define the room modes

Map the sessions people run, the controls they need, and the state the room should return to afterwards. Agree what is automatic and what stays with the user.

02

Program the behaviour

Connect supported equipment and build the agreed interface. Set out source switching, volume controls, presets, and system feedback around the room workflows.

03

Test the complete sequence

Test startup, source changes, room modes, and shutdown with the connected equipment. Check how the system responds when a device is unavailable, then provide operating guidance.

Control that fits
the whole room.

Displays, sound, and cameras

Bring the required AV functions into the same workflow. The available controls depend on the equipment and the integration methods it supports.

Divisible rooms

When a partition changes the space, the audio, displays, and controls need to follow. We define combined and separate room modes and test the intended configurations.

Lighting and blinds

Where required, we coordinate interfaces with the relevant building systems and trades. These connections are scoped and checked for compatibility before programming.

Consistency and future changes

Common interface patterns help people move between rooms. Documentation, configuration records, and agreed access arrangements also give the support team a basis for future changes.

Discuss your room controls

Tell us how the rooms are used, what equipment is installed, and which steps currently cause confusion. We can review an existing control system or scope the interface and programming for a new space.
