Command

Description

 

 

'PTOF',<Time>

Sets the IR power-off pulse time after a power-on pulse in increments

 

of .10 seconds.

 

Syntax:

 

"'PTOF',<Time>"

 

Variables:

 

Time = 0 through 255

 

Time is stored in permanent memory. System default is 15 (1.5

 

seconds).

 

Example:

 

SEND_COMMAND AXBTMX,"'PTOF',15"

 

Sets the power-off pulse time after a power-on pulse to 1.5 seconds

 

for the AXB-TM5.

 

 

'?PTOF'

Sends the current IR power pulse off time string ’PTOF, <Time>’ to the

 

control system. Set the <Time> value in .10 second increments.

 

Example:

 

SEND_COMMAND AXBTMX,'?PTOF'

 

Sends the current IR power pulse off time from the AXB-TM5 to the

 

control system in the ’PTOF <Time>’ format.

 

 

'PTON',<Time>

Sets the IR power pulse on time in increments of .10 seconds. Time is

 

stored in permanent memory.

 

Syntax:

 

"'PTON',<Time>"

 

Variables:

 

Time = 0 through 255

 

System default is 5 (.5 second). ’PTON’ sets the pulse length for all

 

power pulses, regardless if the pulse is due to a ’PON’ or ’POF’

 

command.

 

Example:

 

SEND_COMMAND AXBTMX,"'PTON',20"

 

Sets the IR power pulse on time (delay) to 2 seconds for the

 

AXB-TM5.

 

 

'?PTON'

Sends the current IR power pulse on time string ’PTON, <Time>’ to

 

the control system. Set the <Time> value in .10 second increments.

 

Example:

 

SEND_COMMAND AXBTMX,'?PTON'

 

Sends the current IR power pulse on time from the AXB-TM5 to the

 

control system in the ’PTON <Time>’ format.

 

 

The PTOF time affects how quickly the AXB-TM5 evaluates the power state of a TV. If a TV toggles between on and off when changing the power state, then the ’PTOF’ time should be extended. ’PTOF’ sets the time in-between each power pulse when the AXB-TM5 is attempting to change the TV's power state (regardless if pulse if On or Off).
