IRIS
IR/Serial Data Capture Device
(FG5448)
OVERVIEW
As a stand-alone self-contained unit, the IRIS captures IR or wired
function signals from a hand controller and instantly captures and
verifies the control functions, where they are transmitted to a PC
operating the IRLIB program. Designed with versatility in mind,
the IRIS captures IR functions from hand controllers for a wide
variety of audiovisual equipment such as monitors, VCRs, TVs, and
CD players.
