Using the IRDA Port in Raw Mode

Question:
I am using Windows 2000 and would like to access the IRDA port in raw mode. That is, not use the Winsock API but instead just send serial data.

I am trying to communicate with a small micro that I have to program and do not wish to implement the full IRDA and tiny TP protocols on this unless there is no other option.

Any help would be really appreciated

Answer:
As far as I am aware, there is no other option.
