Infrared Remote
Overview
SKU: ISXSTK-INFR-1
Receive and transmit infrared codes from a typical consumer electronics infrared remote control. The Infrared Remote block has a built-in infrared receiver and transmitter behind the block’s front label, in addition to connectors on its back for two external infrared transmitters and one external infrared receiver. Outputs raw byte code received from all consumer infrared formats.

Additional Notes
There are no infrared remote control standards. Each device to be controlled from an infrared remote control uses its own unique codes. The “Key Code” output sends a five byte binary array when its receiver detects an infrared command. A typical message might be: Binary(‘\x0c\xe0\xe0\xfe\xf5’). Sending a similar five byte binary array to the “Character In” terminal will cause the Infrared Remote block to transmit the key code.
