AMX NI-3101-SIG manual Pon, Ptof, Pton, Meters for the IR Ports

IR/Serial Send_Commands (Cont.)

	If there are no commands in the buffer, the IR port will continue trying to turn
	the device ON until a 'POF' or 'POD' command is received. If the IR port fails to
	turn the device ON, a PUSH and RELEASE is made on channel 254 to indicate
	a power failure error.
	You can only use the 'PON' and 'POF' commands when an IR device has a
	linked I/O channel. Channel 255 changes are disabled after receipt of this
	command.
	Syntax:
	SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'PON'"
	Example:
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'PON'"
	Sends power up IR commands 27 or 9 to the IR_1 port.
PTOF	This time increment is stored in permanent memory. This command also sets

	up and get ready for future IR commands.
	Syntax:
	SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'PTOF',<time>"
	Variable:
	time = 0 - 255. Given in 1/10ths of a second. Default is 15 (1.5 seconds).
	Example:
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'PTOF',15"
	Sets the time between power pulses to 1.5 seconds for the IR_1 device.
PTON	This time increment is stored in permanent memory. This command also sets

.10-second increments	Syntax:
	SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'PTON',<time>"
	Variable:
	time = 0 - 255. Given in 1/10ths of a second. Default is 5 (0.5 seconds).
	Example:
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'PTON',15"
	Sets the duration of the power pulse to 1.5 seconds for the IR_1 device.
SET BAUD	Only valid if the port is in Data Mode (see SET MODE command).
Set the IR port's DATA mode	Syntax:
communication parameters.	SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,"'SET BAUD <baud>,<parity>,<data>,<stop>'"
	Variables:
	baud = baud rates are: 19200, 9600, 4800, 2400, and 1200.
	parity = N (none), O (odd), E (even), M (mark), S (space).
	data = 7 or 8 data bits.
	stop = 1 and 2 stop bits.
	Note: AMX does not recommend using a cable longer than 10 feet
	(3.05 meters) for the IR Ports.
	Example:
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'SET BAUD 9600,N,8,1'"
	Sets the IR_1 port's communication parameters to 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data
	bits, and 1 stop bit.
