5 (.5 second).
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'CTOF',10"
	Sets the off time between each IR pulse to 1 second.

ory.
	Example:
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'CTON',20"
	Sets the IR pulse duration to 2 seconds.
GET MODE	Syntax:

IROFF	Syntax:
Halts and clears all IR output	SEND_COMMAND <DEV>,'IROFF'
on the designated port.	Example:
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'IROFF'
	Immediately halts and clears all IR output signals on the IR_1 port.
POD	Channel 255 changes are enabled. This command is used in conjunction with

	Example:
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'POD'
	Disables PON and POF command settings on the IR_1 device.
POF	If at any time the IR sensor reads that the device is on (such as if one turned it

	tinue 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 <DEV>,'POF'
	Example:
	SEND_COMMAND IR_1,'POF'
	Sends power down IR commands 28 (if present) or 9 to the IR_1 device.
