[. . . ] CTOF sets the time between digits or any other pulse and CTON sets the pulse length for each digit. This is the time between digits, or pulses, that is associated with an SP command. Syntax: "'CTOF', <time>" Variables: <time> = 0 - 255 in tenths of a second; Time is stored in permanent memory. Example: SEND_COMMAND IR_1, "'CTOF', 10" Sets the channel's off-time pulse in tenths of a second. Time is stored in non-volatile RAM. 12 Axcent3 and Axcent3 Pro Integrated Axcess Controllers Axcess Programming Send_Commands for the IR/Serial/Data Ports (Cont. ) CTON Sets the IR pulse (single) on time for each channel digit and IR functions. CTON sets the pulse length for each digit and CTOF sets the time between digits or any other pulse. Syntax: "'CTON', <time>" Variables: <time> = 0 - 255 in tenths of a second; Time is stored in permanent memory. Example: SEND_COMMAND IR_1, "'CTON', 20" Sets the pulse length to 2 seconds. GET BAUD Gets the IR/Serial/ Data port's current communication parameters. The port sends the data through the master's PROGRAM port. Syntax: 'GET BAUD' Example: SEND_COMMAND IR_1, 'GET BAUD' System response example: Device 1, 38400, N, 8, 1 GET MODE Gets the IR/Serial/ Data port's current mode setting. Syntax: 'GET MODE' Example: SEND_COMMAND IR_1, 'GET MODE' System response example: Device 8 IR, CARRIER, IO LINK 0 IROFF Stops IR output on the designated device. Syntax: 'IROFF' Example: SEND_COMMAND IR_1, 'IROFF' Stops transmitting IR signals. POD Syntax: 'POD' Disables current PON (power on) or POF (power off) command settings. POF Syntax: 'POF' Sends IR function 28 (if available) or 9 to turn device power off. After three attempts, if the linked I/O channel still detects a power-on status, the controller starts processing stored buffer commands. Then, if another IR function 28 or 9 fails to turn the external device's power off, the controller sends a PUSH and RELEASE of channel 248 and generates a power failure error. If the device is turned on manually, this command turns the external device's power off unless a PON (power on) or POD (disable POF) command is received. PON Syntax: 'PON' Sends IR function 27 (if available) or 9 to turn device power on. After three attempts, if the linked I/O channel still detects a power-off status, the controller starts processing stored buffer commands. Then, if another IR function 27 or 9 fails to turn the external device's power on, the controller sends a PUSH and RELEASE of channel 248 and generates a power failure error. If the device is turned off manually, this command turns external device power on unless a POF (power off) or POD (disable 'PON' command) command is received.

[. . . ] Place the AMX SOFTROM diskette into drive A or B of your PC. At the MS-DOS prompt C:>, type A:\ and press the ENTER key. When the A:\> prompt appears on the screen, type SOFTROM and press the ENTER key. Configuration To configure the communication setting for the SOFTROM program: 1. Press F1 and the Configure screen appears. [. . . ]
