Product Information; Specifications - AMX IRIS IRSERIAL DATA CAPTURE DEVICE Instruction Manual

Product Information

The IRIS Infrared Capture Unit is a stand-alone, self contained unit used to capture infrared (IR) or
wired-IR function signals from a hand controller. Hand controllers (HC) are used to control a wide
variety of audiovisual equipment that includes monitors, VCRs, TVs, and CD players. After you
capture IR functions with the IRIS unit (FIG. 1 on page 2), the functions are sent to a PC running
the IRLIB software program. The IRLIB software program creates HC function files that are
downloaded to the AXCESS Central Controller. For step-by-step instructions on how to use the
IRLIB software program, refer to the IRLIB Infrared Library Management Program instruction
manual.
