IR Anywhere / Matrix
IR Commander Matrix
The most advanced and the most capable IR distribution
system we’ve ever produced!
• Full Matrix Signal Routing - Each IR input can be
routed to any combination of IR outputs. This means
for example an equipment cabinet could house say
three identical Sky receivers, and each one can be
controlled independently from different rooms
• Four IR output channels - each IR output
channel can drive IR emitter wands or slave IR
distribution amplifiers
• Six local IR input channels - Four IR receivers, one on-
board IR receiver and one wand input for taking the
output directly from another IR distribution system or
video sender
• IP addressable - Will accept IR over IP inputs from
Keene IR Anywhere modules or from PC’s or handheld
devices, up to 253 different IP addresses
• Internal IR command store - Can store up to 64 IR
codes in local memory, these can then be triggered
by IP command from local network or internet
• Network inputs can be routed based on IP address -
Maximum flexibility for LAN devices
• Built in wideband IR receiver - May be disabled
if required
• Local inputs are “one way IRDA” compatible - Will
route signals to control all popular set top boxes
• Will act as Dynamic DNS update client - Built in
support for non-static WAN IP addresses
• LEDs indicate which input is active - When IR
activity is detected on one input all other inputs are
momentarily blanked to ensure the signal remains
pure and is cleanly transmitted. (the LEDs may be
disabled if required)
• Expansion module sockets for inputs and outputs -
Allows an additional 4 input or output module to be
connected via CAT5 cable at a distance of up
to 50m

KIRA RS232
A new addition to the IR Anywhere family, the KIRA
RS232 is similar to the KIRA128 except that the jack
socket for an external IR receiver has been replaced with
an RS232 port. It still has an on-board IR receiver should
you need it. In addition to the ability to send stored IR
codes when triggered by IP commands it will also send
stored IR codes when triggered by Keene defined ASCII
commands via RS232.
The KIRARS232 can function as:
• IR to TCP/IP bridge
• RS232 to TCP/IP bridge
• TCP/IP to RS232 (for the CTX35 X10 bridge)
• RS232 to IR
(stored codes)
• RS232 disabled
(function as KIRA128)
• Supports baud
2400, 9600, 19200,
57600, 115200
CTX35 RS232 to X10 Bridge
The Marmitek CTX35 communication transceiver can
receive and transmit standard X10 control signals via the
RS232 port. Transmit commands and received data are
in ASCII format and it is directly compatible with the
KIRARS232 giving you the ability to TCP/IP control your
X10 products from anywhere in the world.
