The Rako RAVIR is designed to allow IR (normal remote control type commands) to then be converted into RF in order to control the Rako system.
The RAVIR has a built in IR receiver in order to read remote signals, the learnable remote uses HEX codes that are available to send the corresponding RF code to the Rako system. This is ideal if you are using a multi-touch learnable remote within a cinema room, but also need to control the Rako lighting within the same macro commands.
In addition to learnable remotes, the RAVIR is perfect for multiroom solutions which allow IR pass through or allow IR commands to be added to their control panels. If your multiroom system allows full RS232 control then we advise you use the WRA-232
The RAVIR infrared gateway allows scene control from hand held infrared remote controls, multi-room audio systems and other systems that have IR control outputs.
In factory default setting, the unit will control a single room with Scenes 1-4, Off and master raise & lower.
When configured with the RASOFT programming software, it is possible to select ‘multi-room’ mode and control up to four separate rooms from one RAVIR unit. In ‘multiroom’ mode it is also possible to raise and lower individual dimmer channels.
Uses Standard Philips RC5 HEX code sets, compatible with the Philips Pronto Edit, Marantz WizIT and Nevo Studio software suites.
A special order version is available with a receiver tuned for Bang & Olufsen infrared handsets.
