AXB-TC and AXB-TCR Television Controllers (& Receivers)
Send_Commands (Cont.)
?CTON Sends the current on-time pulse string "'CTON',<Time>" to the master.
Set the <Time> value in .10 second increments.
Example:
SEND_COMMAND 92,'?CTON'
Sends the current on-time pulse string from device 92 to the master.
'DC',<IR in>,<IR out> Sets a direct connection so the <IR out> (IR function) data transmits
while the <IR in> code is received. The PUSH and RELEASE for the
<IR in> code is not sent to the master. The maximum number of direct
connections is 16.
Variables:
<IR in> = Custom IR function assigned to hand-held IR transmitting
device
<IR out> = IR functions (see theIR Functions (Standard Order) table
on page 16)
Example:
SEND_COMMAND 26,"'DC',145,24"
Increases the volume level on the equipment connected to device 26.
'DE',<Time> Sets the delay time in .10 second increments for the TV sensor (CC-IR)
to stabilize before sensing for a status change.
Variable:
<Time> = 0-255; System default time = 10 (1 second).
Example:
SEND_COMMAND 25,"'DE',10"
Sets the delay time to 1 second for the CC-IR connected to device 25.
?DE Sends the current television power sensor (CC-IR) delay time string
"'DE',<Time>" to the master.
Set the <Time> value in .10 second increments.
Example:
SEND_COMMAND 25,'?DE'
Device 25 sends the current television power sensor delay time to the
master.
DK Deletes all direct connections set with the 'DC' command.
POD Disables current 'PON' (power on) or 'POF' (power off) command set-
tings. Channel 255 changes are enabled.
POF Sends IR function 28 (if available) or 9 to turn device power off. After
three attempts, if the CC-IR (TV sensor) still detects a power-on status,
the television controller starts processing stored buffer commands.
Then, if another IR function 28 or 9 fails to turn the television's power off,
the television controller sends a PUSH and RELEASE to channel 248
and generates a power failure error. If the device is turned on manually,
this command turns television power off unless the television controller
receives a 'PON' (power on) or 'POD' (disable 'POF') command.
PON Sends IR function 27 (if available) or 9 to turn device power on. After
three attempts, if the TV sensor (CC-IR) still detects a power-off status,
the television controller starts processing stored buffer commands.
Then, if another IR function 27 or 9 fails to turn the television's power on,
the television controller sends a PUSH and RELEASE to channel 248
and generates a power failure error. If the device is turned off manually,
this command turns television power on unless the television controller
receives a 'POF' (power off) or 'POD' (disable 'PON' command) com-
mand.
