This plugin deals with Global Caché devices, particularly for sending and receiving Consumer Infrared (CIR) signals - those ubiquitous remote controls. Supported devices include

  • GC-100 network devices of all kinds
  • iTach network devices (including the iTach Flex)
  • GC-IRL serial infrared learner
  • GC-IRE serial infrared extender

At this point, Cynical Caché supports all functions of these devices (except LED dimming), assuming of course you have the relevant hardware being supported.
