High-Speed IR Comms & Wireless Boot-Loading

[Bruce]

Hi Folks,

We've just released the new Fyre-Fly high-speed infrared communications modules. These can be used to remote boot-load your PIC development boards at speeds up to 19,200bps, and for IR data communications up to 38,400bps.

Control serial servo controllers like the Mini SSC-II, serial LCD's, and pretty much everything else you would normally connect directly to a PC serial port with a wireless IR link.

See http://www.rentron.com/Fyre-Fly.htm for details.

Note: This is not IRDA, offers considerably longer range, and should work with any standard serial terminal program. Even, dare I say, Windows HyperTerminal...}

Works really nice with the MCS+ boot-loader at 19,200bps.
