Binary: [1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1] [0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0] [period_hi] [period_lo]
This command sets the IR sampling period, which is a parameter that controls how the Slink-e sends and receives IR port messages. See Sample Clock.
"period_hi" and "period_lo" are the most significant and least signficant bytes (respectively) of a 16 bit pure binary number. That number is the IR sampling period in 1/5 microsecond units. For example, 100 microseconds (500 1/5 microsecond units) would be 0x01 followed by 0xF4 (0x01F4 = 500).
Valid values for the period are 50 microseconds to 1 millisecond. All other values cause the command to fail.
The factory default IR sampling period is 100 microseconds.
The Slink-e also uses the IR sampling period as a timebase for parallel port output signals.
Use a Get IR Sample Period command to query the existing IR sample period.
The Slink-e normally generates a IR Sampling Period Is response to confirm that it executed your command.
The command may also generate an Invalid IR Sampling Period error response.
