- An introduction to the IR standard
- A general description of the IR network design
- The specifications of the allowed network topology and
configuration rules
- The specifications for the use of the IR medium including
environmental requirements
- The physical layer specifications of an IR device - covers the
interface to the higher ISO layers, control channel signal
characteristics, encoding, transmitter and receiver
characteristics, and device failure modes.
The standard establishes a minimum set of rules for compliance.
It does not rule out extended services to be provided, as long as
the rules are adhered to within the system. It is in fact the
intention of the standard to permit extended services (defined by
users) to coexist.
Certain aspects of the standard are defined in other documents.
These documents will be referenced when relevant. In the case where
a referenced standard conflicts with this document, this document
will prevail.
