Progress Star USB Infrared Transmitter

PC USB ECU Infrared Transmitter by Abilia (GEWA) AB of Sweden

The Progress Star is a stand alone USB infrared transmitter for sending infrared signals from a Windows PC or PC-based AAC device to any infrared receiver. Plug this into a PC's USB port, load the supplied Progress PC software (#425328), use the on-screen images to navigate through the pages, and transmit infrared environmental control signals. This device can also be used with AAC programs like Grid 2 and Tobii Communicator.

The graphic displays make finding and selecting the wanted actions obvious. All units can "learn" IR codes from other remote control devices such as those for TV, cable, DVD, or stereo systems. The screen is dynamic, and the information displayed can be arranged according to the needs and wishes of the user.

Progress Star comes with Progress PC dynamic display software to send infrared signals directly from your PC. Simply plug the Progress Star into a PC's USB port, load the Progress PC software and use the on-screen graphic displays to make finding and selecting the wanted actions obvious.

This unit can learn IR codes from other remote control units such as those for commercial TV, DVD, and cable. The Progress Star can also be used with augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) software programs like Grid 2 by Sensory Software. Progress Star has two switch jacks to allow scanning of the Progress PC software.
