Is this item controllable by IR or some other protocol?

I didn't read the instruction but it very basic. No IR I can tell and no wireless connectivity. No power supply either.

You can program it to use anything with IR. I have it using stereo, radio, and my TV. Best remote I ever bought!!!!

The control box operates the rotator by hardwired connection. The control box has a full keyboard on it and is fully functional without using the remote. The remote duplicates the keyboard on the control box. The IR remote has reasonable range in a room with walls that will reflect IR. I have a control box in the corner of a 25 x 30 ft room and the remote operates the control box when pointed anywhere in its general direction.

The remote uses IR to control the receiver. I would just make sure that your enclosure does not obstruct line of sight between remote and the IR-receiver (front of unit)... If you're connected through wi-fi, you could just use the android/iOs app and not worry about line of sight issues.

It is IR, and it will also block your other IR devices while it is in use (I can't use my TV remote when the Helo is flying, the IR signal over-powers the remote signal, I have to land it to change channels or volume, etc.)

As far as I know--there is no way other than going to IR-0, which shuts it off but still enables ambient IR viewing.

No. It is still IR meaning it only has a few feet of range and must be in the same room. Also, it is probably not compatible with cable box or TV. It is designed speficially for computer and Raspberry Pi or other media center that requires IR control.

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

No. The remote can only control devices that use an infra red remote (like a tv, receiver, dvd, etc.).

If I understand the question correctly, when receiving an ir command there is a small led that indicates receiving signal Hope this helps

There is no IR receiver that I know of or see. Remote capability is via Z-wave communication.

Sorry, but I have never used Linux so I couldn't tell you. But I will say that the IR receiver was a little finicky, but overall worked, with some delay.

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 have mine, and the ONLY way to control remotely is over the internet through the website. I'm not a computer genius, but the thing registers itself, etc... and you need to access it through the web. If anyone knows otherwise, let me know!

Yes...since it has to communicate with many, many possible TVs, receivers, dvd players, etc. and they all tend to use IR.

no, typical a unit such as DVD/TV/Receiver receives a IR signal from a remote. This is used to connect to a unit that sends a signal such that it mimics the IR from a remote thus changing channels etc. This would also connect to an IR repeater to let you hide your IR devices which are line of sight behind a curtain or door.

I find that it works well with most ir controls. They have the discrete codes online
