A question for the Simple Control experts if I may...
I am looking to control some rack mounted gear using Simple Control iOS based apps/hardware. Just can't seem to understand the website description of the practical uses of various IR items.
So, if the rack is fitted with:
HD Anywhere 4K 8x8 mHub
3 x Sky HD receivers
1 x Panasonic BluRay player
1 x Apple TV
1 x GoogleTV/Kodi box
1 x Swann CCTV system (control not important within the SC envirnoment)
1 x PS4
2-3 Sonos Amps

- Should the 8x8 matrix be controlled by the serial cable to the ethernet simple blaster?
- Should the 3 x Sky boxes be controlled by the triple emitter? Can this be connected to the same simple blaster as the matrix?
- Will the other devices in the rack be automatically seen by the SC app and therefore be set-up within the app itself?
- Is there any advantage in having the Simple Hub?
- Finally, can my TVs (predominantly Panasonic) be switched off & on using the SC app?
