Send_Commands for the IR/Serial/Data Ports (Cont.)
SP
Generates a single
<IR out> function
pulse.
The CTON sets pulse length and CTOF sets time between pulses.
Syntax:
"’SP’,<IR out>"
Variables:
<IR out> = 1 - 127
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1, "'SP',25"
Pulses IR code 25, which decreases the volume level on the equipment connected to
the controller.
XCH
Transmits the IR
code in the format
set with the XCHM
mode command.
Syntax:
’XCH [channel]’
Variables:
<channel> = 0 - 999
Mode 0 (default) Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1, 'XCH 3'
Transmits the IR code as 3 enter.
SEND_COMMAND IR_1, 'XCH 34 '
Transmits the IR code as 3 4 enter.
SEND_COMMAND IR_1, 'XCH 343 '
Transmits the IR code as 3 4 3 enter.
Mode 1 Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'XCH 3'
Transmits the IR code as 0 0 3 enter.
SEND_COMMAND IR_1, 'XCH 34'
Transmits the IR code as 0 3 4 enter.
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'XCH 343'
Transmits the IR code as 3 4 3 enter.
Mode 2 Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'XCH 3'
Transmits the IR code as 0 0 3.
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'XCH 34'
Transmits the IR code as 0 3 4.
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'XCH 343'
Transmits the IR code as 3 4 3.
Mode 3 Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'XCH 3'
Transmits the IR code as 0 3.
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'XCH 34'
Transmits the IR code as 3 4.
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'XCH 343'
