Setting up a GPI trigger/remote recording

I'm currently trying to set up a Windows (I know but the system was already there when I started working there) based video capturing solution, the major requirement of the system is that it must be able to be remote activated for recording/capturing a weather show.

I have had a trial of a Digital Rapids DRC-1500 but I can't seem to get the Stream software to capture, detect an input source or work with any GPI trigger (so it isn't working in spectacular fashion).

Does anyone know if Premiere Pro will support GPI trigger events with a capture card or any sort, and if anyone has some good tips about setting it up that would also be appreciated.
