IR Wireless Interface
A link from a PC or laptop to Chameleon is required to (initially) program and interface with the device. In most cases, this link is in the form of wireless IR using an adaptor.
The IR adaptor can plug into your computers RS-232 serial or USB port. Due to inconsistencies with laptop RS-232 ports it is recommended that a USB to RS-232 converter be used (which then connects to the RS-232 IR adaptor.)
Note: Do not use a native USB based IR adaptor — the adaptor must be RS-232.
