IR commands take precedence over front panel key presses. Thus, if an IR command is received at the
same time as one of the front panel buttons is pressed, the IR command will be executed and the button
press ignored. However, RS232 commands take precedence over both IR and front panel commands, so if
an RS232 command is received at the same time as an IR command, the IR command will be ignored.
Example:
Unit channel: 0
To turn standby mode off: @0SS0
To turn dimmer status down 1 level: @0SD?
To lock-out front panel: @0SP1
To set auto input mode on: @0SA1
