Abstract

A control unit (), such as a remote control device, includes a profile selector (). The profile selector (), which may be a single profile selector button integrated into the side or top of a remote control, allows quick and simple selection of an operating mode or user profile. The control unit () includes an indicator () that provides indicia of the currently selected mode or profile. Examples of indicators include multicolored lights and display devices. Where multicolored lights are used as the indicator (), actuation of the profile selector () causes the indicator () to change from a first color to a second color.
