Keene IR Anywhere IR Over IP Module (128 Code) KIRA128
This model has now been discontinued and has been replaced with the KIRAONE.
Part of the Keene IR Anywhere family, the KIRA128 enables IR commands to be sent via local IP network or internet!
The KIRA128 can act as an IR receiver, and will convert the received signal to packet data and send that data to a predetermined IP address (usually another IR Anywhere module). The receiving module will then decode the data and re-transmit the IR as originally received. The IR Anywhere modules can be software configured as either a receiver, a target or stand-alone. They will operate via LAN, and also via WAN assuming firewall and routers are correctly configured.
The KIRA128 is also capable of storing up to 128 IR codes in local memory. These codes can then be accessed and triggered by by any device with web browser capability from local network or internet. For example this image shows a phone browsing one the internal web pages of stored IR commands
Note, this is a web page and not an "app" and so can be accessed by any smart phone, PDA or other device with web browser capability.
The KIRA128 can be can be software configured as either a receiver, a target or stand-alone. Once correctly configured, one target can be used as a local IR emitter for multiple remote receivers. The target can be another IR Anywhere (KIRAM or KIRA128) or the IR Commander Matrix (IRCM).
The IR Anywhere modules are compatible with the 36 ~ 40K IR signals used by the vast majority of domestic AV equipment. A wide band IR receiver can also be used to extend the range to 20KHz ~ 120KHz if required.
The IR inputs and outputs are fully compatible with the existing Keene IR Distribution range so other styles of receivers and emitter wands can easily be incorporated.
