RE: [KAT5] kat5 RGB fails IR with component

["Keith Doxey" <kat5users@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Paul,

Are you using the KAT5 IR recievers on your setup or your other IR
distribution system ?

If the KAT5 IR Reciever was picking up signals from the TV then the mimic
LED on the reciever would indicate that.

Looking back at my records I can see that Paul R has an early set of IR
capable units which didn't have mimic indicators on the recievers. If that
is the case then drop me a line and I will send you one of the newer style
receivers with pretty blue LED :)

There is no difference in performance as they have the same IR receiver
module in them but the LED should assist in fault finding.

Regards

Keith
