  • ESP32-S3
  • IR trasmitter
  • SD card

[
{
    "name": "Off",

    "address": 136,
    "command": 49157
},

    "protocol": 7,
    "address": 136,
    "command": 49158
}
]

Name​

Name property give a name to the command, it's better do not exceed the 6 characters for the name to avoid UI glitch due to small display size.

Other properties​

For the other properties check here: IR protocol format

Notes​

IR signals captured by the capibaraZero have all of this property even though they are not used.

Protocols that doesn't support one or more properties like RAW or Pulse Width/Distance have unused property set to 0.

If you are creating a signal it's better to not include unused properties.

The current limit of button is 8 for each file.
