Video Commander 3.5 Support

Although we at IRIS Technologies no longer sell or support the Video Commander 3 product, this web site still includes the documentation for version 3.5 Service Release 2. If you are a user of Video Commander 3.5 but have not upgraded to Service Release 2, this update is still available to you at no charge.

If your routing needs have grown beyond your present Video Commander 3 system, talk to an IRIS Technologies sales representative about our Video Commander Professional Edition systems. Your existing investment in routing hardware is preserved and you gain new features and benefits.

Compatibility warning: Video Commander 3.5 is not fully compatible with Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Video Commander 3.5 was designed only to operate on Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows ME.
