RE: MK2 Units & IR

[Keith Doxey]

Hi Andy,

I hope to have the Mk2 units available early in the new year although I
cant
give an exact date.

IR is one way, from the Receiver to the Transmitter so that the viewing
room
can control the source equipment. It certainly works with my IR keyboard.
There will be a control path in the opposite direction from transmitter to
receiver for controlling the SCART switching functions.

Subject: [KAT5] MK2 Units &amp; IR


Keith,

I notice that the MK1 units are not for sale any more. Do you have a date
yet for when the MK2 units will be available?

Also, my intention is to use the IR transfer feature of the MK2 units to
transfer IR keyboard / mouse signals from my lounge to node0, where my
server is located. Allowing control of the server as a music system (all
CDs
are ripped onto server) and also as a DIY TIVO style system.

Not being very technical I am not sure if this IR transfer will be
possible.
I dont want to keep buying parts towards this end, if it wont work. Do you
think the MK2 units will allow Ir transfer of this nature? IS the IR
transfer bi-directional or one way based on the type of MK2 unit (TX or
RX)?

Does anyone else in the group use IR keyboard / mouse in this way already?
Or what alternatives are there?

Thanks
Andy
