Product Overview

The GC-IRE IR Extender is a new concept in automated controls that allows IR devices, such as remote controllers, to act as digital input devices in a networked environment. The GC-IRE digitizes IR inputs from a Global Caché, Xantech, or SpeakerCraft IR receiver or distribution block. By converting this IR information to serial ASCII text, IR can now be considered a new input method for digitally controlled installations. The GC-IRE has two interfaces, a 3.5mm stereo jack for IR input and a serial RS232 male DB9 connector for ASCII text output. The serial connection provides both power (no external power supply is required) and two-way communication for GC-IRE configuration and IR output. Additionally, an IR noise measurement mode is available to assist in proper placement of IR receivers to minimize background IR interference. The GC-IRE samples IR input including background noise and modulation frequency. It then attempts to filter out incomplete IR commands, background noise, and incorrect IR patterns before transmitting good IR commands as serial ASCII text.
