IFSYS-8004 USB Serial-IR Adapter
Product Brief
The IFSYS-8004 USB Serial-IR Adapter is intended for applications which need to transfer raw serial data wirelessly over a serial infrared link. It is ideal for OEMs, and equipment designers who do not wish to make significant changes to their legacy serial software, but who now require a wireless means of transferring data. IFSYS-8004 comes with a USB driver that appears as a virtual serial port in the host system, allowing existing legacy serial applications to work with little or no modification. IFSYS-8004 hardware simply encodes the serial data stream into IrDATM physical layer infrared pulses for transmission and demodulates incoming infrared pulses into serial UART data. Data between host and adapter is transferred over the USB link. The IFSYS-8004 USB Serial-IR Adapter allows equipment designers to work with raw serial data without having to worry about the intricacies of a higher level protocol.
