State of configuration files for WinLIRC: 2. September 2003.

PCs running Windows 95 may need the WinLIRC used system component
Winsocket 2.0. In our Installation guide is described how you can find this out immediately.

WinLIRC

The most important Program - WinLIRC makes it possible to receive the remote data. Here is the site of the developer: http://WinLIRC.sourceforge.net/

We recommend to check the free scripttool Autohotkey, which also talks to WinLIRC.

Clients

Girder

Brings a lot of ways to control the PC. Huge user community - many configurations for program controls. Recommended for all willing to spend a little more time with the matter. For the installation the IgorPlug.dll file (Newest version from the Igor HP ) is placed in the Girder\Plugins\Hardware Dir. Then in File /Settings /Hardware Plugins / Igor SFH-56 device /Settings, set Input Signal=DCD.

IRAssistant

This is the client, that is treated in detail in the installation guide.

We experienced that IRAssistant runs WinLIRC only since Windows 98 - not with Windows 95.

Configuration files to adapt the remote control to WinLIRC can be found at www.lirc.org
