This discussion is 13 years old. It predates today's Roomie Remote X, and the app names, menus, features, pricing, and device details below have changed substantially since 2013. Treat it as historical reference — see Support and current compatibility for how things work today.

In short

My FIOS cisco dvr has a port on the back marked "IR". Can I use this to control it as oposed to using the itach ir cable — Staff replied: “Typically yes although there are certainly exceptions and some of them are quite important to get right the first time due to voltages. The Xantech products are an example of that.”

My FIOS cisco dvr has a port on the back marked "IR". Can I use this to control it as oposed to using the itach ir cable that you need to tape on?

Thanks

Typically yes although there are certainly exceptions and some of them are quite important to get right the first time due to voltages. The Xantech products are an example of that.

In the case of that DVR, a simple mono to mono cable is what you would want to try, like the cable on this page:

Thank you.
