The IR Blaster Pack provides you everything you need to create a working IR Blaster system and saves you 5% off your standard price for the individual items!
This pack is perfect flooding a room with IR to easily control numerous items without the need to run cables to each device.
IR Blaster
270° blaster output.
Control anything in the room.
Control all devices in a cabinet from a single blaster output, as well as those hard to access devices such as ceiling fans and wall-mounted air conditioners.
On-board IR receiver.
Use any remote control.
The on-board IR receiver, combined with the Rules Engine allows triggering macros from any remote control button press.
Additional IR in & out.
For more direct control.
There are additional IR output and input connectors on the side, allowing an emitter to be used for more direct IR control and IR receiver placement.
Overview
The IR Blaster is a multi-functional IR control device. Featuring a 270° IR blaster on-board, as well as an additional 3.5mm jack for an IR emitter, you get the best of both IR control worlds - room flooding and directional control.
Rules Engine
All CFLink devices, including the CF Mini, support a powerful rule triggering engine. This allows you to trigger macros to run when a specific event occurs - such as reading a specific value via the I/O ports, or on incoming data via the RS232 port. Using the rules engine, you can setup basic or complex automation actions.
IR Receiver
The on-board IR receiver and additional 3.5mm jack for an IR receiver (not included), provide a way use the incoming IR signal to trigger macros via the Rules Engine. So you can use any IR remote control to perform actions throughout your automation system, such as control your lights or security system.
IR Database & Storage
All IR emitting devices in the CommandFusion range include an on-board IR database, with over 500,000 IR codes built in. If the device you want to control doesn't exist in the database, simply use our IR Learner to learn the IR codes and create an IR file ready for storage directly in the IR Blaster's on-board memory.
LAN Bridge
TCP & UDP
Choose your connection.
Featuring connection options including TCP Server/Client and UDP Unicast/Broadcast, and any combination of connection types simultaneously. Each socket can be individually configured. The LAN Bridge has your connection needs covered.
Need simultaneous control?
Connect up to 25 devices at once.
In a world of mobile devices, multiple simultaneous connections are a must. The LAN Bridge supports up to 25 connections at once, shared between your defined communication slots.
Powerful Scheduling Engine.
Realtime clock on-board.
Schedule events to occur in your automation system with the LAN Bridge's powerful scheduling engine. Randomise lighting for "away mode" security. Turn on/off lights at specific times of specific days.
Overview
The LAN Bridge is the Ethernet & RS232 gateway for all devices connected via the CFLink bus. It has many advanced networking features, including the ability to communicate via TCP Server, TCP Client, UDP Unicast and UDP Broadcast, all at the same time.
10 different communication slots can be defined, each with its own configuration of protocol type, port, and other options. A maximum of 25 total TCP socket connections can be shared between each defined slot.
Rules Engine
All CFLink devices, including the CF Mini, support a powerful rule triggering engine. This allows you to trigger macros to run when a specific event occurs - such as reading a specific value via the I/O ports, or on incoming data via the RS232 port. Using the rules engine, you can setup basic or complex automation actions.
Advanced Communications
Communication slots can be subscribed to each other, allowing advanced configurations such as TCP Client multiplexing. In other words, Ethernet devices that accept only one connection at a time can be extended by using the LAN Bridge to be that single connection, and then act as a server for all other clients to connect to.
Passthrough Configurations
Communication slot subscriptions can also be targeted directly to a specific CFLink device on the bus, even as far as a module slot number for modular controllers. This allows you to send and receive communications to CFLink end points, such as an RS232 port, without any CFLink protocol formatting. Just send the data that you want to be received by the RS232 device.
