1st. i think its not possible to use this, because the gateway pulse the signal to the ir led and this looks like it need power an a dedicated signal pin.

so its probally possible to bridge the ground and signal pin for make this functional but not 100% sure.

Better Question is.. Why use this?

A IR Diode do the same job but cheaper...

and you also need the resitor and the transistor so nothing won from my perspective...

Best Regards Hannes
