iTach Connector setting

[vbPhil]

I'm confused about the connector setting for the iTach node in AC. It supposedly is telling the node server what IR emitter to output the signal on., 1, 2 or 3.

But, I thought the command string was setting what port to use.

sendir,1:3,1,36873,3,67,343,167,22,20,22,20,22,20,22,20,22,20,22,20,22,20,22,20,22,61,22,61,22,61,22,61,22,61,22,61,22,61,22,61,22,61,22,20,22,61,22,20,22,20,22,20,22,61,22,20,22,20,22,61,22,20,22,61,22,61,22,61,22,20,22,61,22,1473,343,83,22,3551
 

The sendir,1:3 header in the command is telling iTach to use module 1 and port 3.

the iTach doco states:

Quote

IR codes follow the following format:

sendir,<module>,<connector>,...

The example IR code below has a <module> of 2 and a <connector> of 1.  The module and connector fields have been underlined respectively:

sendir,2:1,1,38000,10,1,500,500

the iTach doco states:

 

The Node server replaces the connector value. Same with repeat value.

Why: The control tower database has "1" in for all codes.  So this allows the user to copy the entire codeset and not have to manually change the connector value.
