UDM Hub Control Protocol

 UDM-0404 4x4 Multi-Format Distribution Hub
Send IR Command To Connected Device 
Sends a control command out through the IR blaster or serial port connected to the remote receiver. This is 
translated in the receiver to the appropriate control protocol previously selected. The receiver must already be 
loaded with the right driver for the codes used, and the device being controlled must allow the necessary 
actions. 
Device control codes are defined as follows: 
Send Non-specific Serial Command
Sends a serial string to the serial output (if present) on the remote receiver. This allows direct control of the 
serial output (independent of the device protocol loaded in the receiver).
It is preferred that serial control be accomplished by loading the appropriate driver file into a receiver and 
using the generic control commands (this allows the same command to be issued to a variety of different 
devices, for example), but this command can be used for more direct control if required. 
Set Serial Parameters
Sets serial port parameters for the serial interface (if present) on the Rx. DTR may be controlled by the value in 
offset 7 - a non zero value will assert it. 
Baud rate values are split into most significant byte (MSB) and least significant byte (LSB), so for example:
9600 baud has MSB = 37 and LSB= 128 since 9600 = 37x256 + 128
If the baud rate in this command is zero (both MSB and LSB), then the baud rate of the remote device will 
remain unchanged.
