[KAT5] KAT5-FirM...Xantech

Hi All
As some may be aware recently Tony Butler did a review of his
KAT-FirM Jr installation. ....Keith and i have swapped some kit and i have
tested KAT5 IR with my FirM Jr and all looks well ;-)......................

Browsing thru my FirM schematics  i think with some minor mods to FirM
hardware and some simple firmware changes it may be possible to  use FirM
with KAT5  to  give zone identication which would be handy for those with
similiar kit ...or wanting to use cheap remotes to control lighting
etc.....Obviously this setup is biased to using Homevision ,but any other
controller  which can decode/generate ir and has i/o control could be
used......

It may also be possible to do the same with the Xantech receivers , but i
would need to purchase xantech rx unit  to try....If people are interested
let me know and i will investigate further.........
Thanks
Frank
