Upgrade from internal UIRT to USB UIRT

Postby Guest » Wed Feb 18, 2004 7:45 pm

I am currently using the older internal (to the PC) UIRT and would like to use the USB version.

I notice that the USB version has one 1/8" jack for external IR transmittal. I need 2 external IR xmit jacks and a jack for IR receive - my equipment is in a cabinet seperate from my HTPC (both at the back of the room and my IR bug is at the front of the room.

Anything like this?

While you can connect multiple transmitters to the 1/8" jack (its actually a stereo jack), there is no way without custom mods to hook an external IR receiver to the unit. I would also discourage such a connection, since the connection would be a static-sensitive one and would also radiate (and be susceptible to) emi noise.
