chwang, I've posted your question, originally posted in "Welcome to Premise Home Control forum", as a new topic. "Welcome" is reserved for general commentary. Your question deserves its own topic! :)

...Today I am trying to follow the "Generic Devices Example - Custom Receiver", after defined and learned all the IR code for Cinema Bass Feature, Simulated Surround Feature etc, how can I create Home object to map to the customized device(with customized feature) and make control button appear in control page?

I suggest you review the following video tutorials to become more familiar with how Premise handles audio-video equipment:
Home_Theater_Control
Distributed_Audio_with_mSense

Here's a summary of how it's done:
In Premise Builder, click Home in the Shortcut Bar.
In the Explorer window, right-click Home and select: New > AudioVideo > MediaZone
Right-click MediaZone and select: New > AV Component > Receiver

Here is how to bind the Home-object "Receiver" to the Driver-object "Custom Receiver":
In the Palette window, drag the "Custom Receiver" and drop it on the Receiver in the Content Workspace.

In Premise Browser, navigate the following path: MediaZone > Custom Receiver and you'll find the controls for the receiver. Premise will automatically generate the buttons required to control the receiver.
 
Thank you 123, I am trying to simulate an aircon IR remote control, the steps as follows,
Step 1: Devices tab-->CustomDevices-->New-->Custom-->Next-->Module(Daikin), Class Name(aircon)-->Next-->Other --IR Device -->Next-->Next--Finish
Step 2: Modules tab-->Daikin-->Classes-->aircon--right click-->New-->Property-->Boolean-->change name to be"swing"-->set Bindable to true, CaptionTure <ON>, CaptionFalse <OFF>
Step 3: Devices tab-->click aircon-->set Transmitter: GlobalCache MultiIO4 <IO1>-->set Receiver GlobalCache GCIRL <IRPort>
Step 4: Learn swing Toggle and PowerState Toggle IR code
Step 5: Home tab-->create MediaZone-->New-->AV Component-->Receiver-->change name to be "aircon"
Step 6: map Devices: Daikin aircon to Home aircon
Step 7: open brower to: http://localhost, click MediaZone
can see aircon icon, click aircon, can not see any control button
so how can I get the control button appear in web page?
Should I use Receiver object to map to this custom IR Device?
