IR/Serial Send_Commands (Cont.)
GET MODE
Polls the IR/Serial ports and
reports the active mode
settings to the device
requesting the information.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'GET MODE'
System response example:
PORT 4 IR,CARRIER,IO LINK 0
IROFF
Halts and clears all IR output
on the designated port.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'IROFF'
Immediately halts and clears all IR output signals on the IR_1 port.
POD
Disables active PON (power
on) or POF (power off)
command settings.
Channel 255 changes are enabled. This command is used in conjunction with
the I/O Link command.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'POD'
Disables PON and POF command settings on the IR_1 device.
POF
Turns off a device, based on
input Link.
If at any time the IR sensor reads that the device is on (such as if one turned it
on manually at the front panel), the card automatically attempts to turn the
device back off. If three attempts fail, the card will continue executing
commands in the buffer. If there are no commands in the buffer, the card will
continue to try until a 'PON' or 'POD' command is received. If it fails to turn the
device off, a PUSH and RELEASE is made on channel 254 to indicate a power
failure error.
Channel 255 changes are disabled after receipt of this command.
You can only use the PON and POF commands when an IR device has a
linked I/O channel.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'POF'
Sends power down IR commands 28 (if present) or 9 to the IR_1 device.
PON
Turns on a device, based on
input Link.
If at any time the IR sensor reads that the device is off (such as if one turned it
off manually at the front panel), the card automatically attempts to turn the
device back on. If three attempts fail, card will continue executing commands in
the buffer. If there are no commands in the buffer, the card will continue to try
until a 'POF' or 'POD' command is received. If it fails to turn the device on, a
PUSH and RELEASE is made on channel 254 to indicate a power failure error.
Channel 255 changes are disabled after receipt of this command.
You can only use the PON and POF commands when an IR device has a
linked I/O channel.
Syntax:
SEND_COMMAND
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'PON'
Sends power up IR commands 27 or 9 to the IR_1 port.
