Is is possible to have this device receive an IR command and in turn transmit a custom http request to a listening server?

The short answer is no. The longer answer is this device receives an IP signal encoded with a command that is then translated to an series of IR commands that is transmitted to IR receivers on your devices ( HDTV, DVD ...). So, This device only transmits. This device does not have the ability to receive to the best of my knowledge. I hope this helps.

The device can learn IR commands, but cannot receive or transmit http requests.I hope this helps.It can only send IR commands and learn IR commands.

I would say no. This device is designed to translate IP commands into IR---the IR is OUTBOUND.

There is a sensor for learning ir commands but no pass through. Maybe possible to route an ir output to a PC using software. See info at:https://globalcache.zendesk.com/entries/20359832-IP2IR-Sensor-IN-what-purpose-

i found this here for it i haven't tried it out yet but looks promising. http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=63&t;=46949

Haven't used this IR port before but in researching this is called RI port and the equipment you are going to control has to have the same RI port in to control that piece of equipment in the other room. Example had a Onkyo CD player and had RI in you could have CD player come on when you turn on receiver. The RI port is a 1/8" mono plug or also called 3.5 mm mono plug. If your trying to control receiver and equipment from another room you're probably better off installing a IR kit but need a 1/8" wire from room to room and a IR kit I've used the cables to go IR kit works good and only about $40-$45 . Good luck hope this helps.

IR does work with PoE. There is a setting to turn off IR, perhaps the reason for this comment

Yea. That is exactly how I have it set up. The dongle is plugged into my computer and the IR works independently for the TV.

Yes, worked for me very well, and more than that - i developed custom application that will detect spectrum changes (new transmissions). But decoding complex signals probably will have problems, Raspberry CPU power is limited.

No, its not IR enabled. Also, you should know, we installed these at a client site and they went bad after about 8 months. We had to replace them and eat the costs. Not recommended.

I beleive this would be an option, in my application I was able to connect remotely to my camera and control and observe as well as have the camera send via email or text as many as 6 images when motion was sensed. I used this successfully in my application and was very pleased with its reliabilty. Image quality was excellent and send/receive times were in the area of 10 seconds.

Yes you can, you will need to place a transmitter from the hub nearby to send IR signals so the matrix can respond.

I agree with Chris, I've only used the RF transmitter to broadcast the sound the radio of our vehicle. The IR should work just fine.

I'm not sure. It works with receiving on/off commands via http (e.g. httpaddress/ 0?11117=I=0 for on, 0?13117=I=0 for off. maybe it's a matter of finding the right command set.

I don't think so. It only responds to Insteon commands, and I believe most home theater equipment use a different protocol. I have the Lutron Maestro in my theater -- it uses an IR remote and the commands can be memorized by my Logitech Harmony.

Yes, I have done it two ways. FTP server and iSPY. I highly recommend the iSPY program. It is free and easier to setup. I only have done this with a wired connection though. FTP server setup is confusing to do, and i only got it working with scheduled recordings not motion sensor.

Not sure. Once I received it and figured out it was an IR device (needing line of sight) not radio wireless I returned it.

Ir works by amplifying the incoming signal and the outgoing signal. It doesn't matter what phone.

A place called Iguana Works has USB IR Transcievers. Also versions where the emitters can be on an extension cord.

I am using it to synchronize data between a laptop computer and an old Palm iiixe. As another respondent noted,you need software to do the sorts of things you describe. I'm not sure such software is available. The IR adapter is really like a "cord" between your computer and another device (printer,another computer, organizer,etc.)that has infrared capability. It doesn't do much more than provide an opportunity for interaction between devices. Software can make use of that opportunity.
