OEM Customers

If you are using Ira-3 with your equipment and you want to switch to USB IR receiver, Tira-4 is the solution. Tira-4 will remain compatible with whatever remote controls you had. All IR codes will also remain the same, making transition simple.

If you are using Tira-2.1 with your equipment and you only need the receive function, please consider transitioning to Tira-4. You will be able to save a lot, as Tira-4 is less expensive, especially in larger volumes. Transition to Tira-4 will be easy. Tira-4 is using the same API as Tira 2.1, so all you will need to is to replace the DLL that we provide for Tira-2.1 with a new DLL, for Tira-4.
