NetLinx Send Commands (Cont.)
Command Description EXB Modules
CP Halt and clear all active or buffered IR commands, and then send a
single IR pulse.
• This command uses a binary parameter. To generate a Send
Command of this type, use string expressions, such as:
“'CH',$01”.
Note: Set the Pulse and Wait times with 'CTON' and 'CTOF'.
Syntax:
'CP',<code>
Variable:
code = IR port's channel value 0 - 252 (253 - 255 reserved).
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'CP',$02"
Clears the active/buffered commands and pulses IR_1 port's channel
2.
• EXB-IRS4
• EXB-MP1
CTOF Set the duration of the Off time (no signal) between IR pulses for chan-
nel and IR function transmissions.
• Sets the delay time between pulses generated by the 'CH' or 'XCH'
Send Commands in tenths of seconds.
• Off time settings are stored in non-volatile memory.
• This command uses a binary parameter. To generate a Send
Command of this type, use string expressions, such as:
“'CH',$01”.
Syntax:
'CTOF',<time>
Variable:
time = 0 - 255. Given in 1/10ths of a second. Default is 5 (0.5
seconds).
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'CTOF',10"
Sets the Off time between each IR pulse to 1 second.
• EXB-IRS4
• EXB-MP1
CTON Set the total time of IR pulses transmitted and is stored in non-volatile
memory.
• This command sets the pulse length for each pulse generated by the
'CH' (page 38) or 'XCH' (page 49) Send Commands in tenths of
seconds.
• This command uses a binary parameter. To generate a Send
Command of this type, use string expressions, such as:
“'CH',$01”.
Syntax:
'CTON',<time>
Variable:
time = 0 - 255. Given in 1/10ths of a second. Default is 5 (0.5
seconds).
Example:
SEND_COMMAND IR_1,"'CTON',20"
Sets the IR pulse duration to 2 seconds.
• EXB-IRS4
• EXB-MP1
