Re: IR Distribution {Scanned for Viruses}



Hi Ross
The FirM Hardware could be used as a basic repeater system...But it would
only be able to control kit at Node 0 ...from any room.......

Looks pretty good, do you have any simple distribution system for us
without HomeVision?

Basically looking for something really simple - takes an IR signal from
any room, sends it out to all other rooms, over Cat 5e preferably
(although anything with a hardwired RS485 interface (or anything else
that requires less than 6 cores) would be fine!)
