Additional IRL Information
Unlike NetLinx NI-Controllers, ICSLan powered devices (such as the DXLink Transmitter and Receiver units) are not capable of
having their IRL files received via the File Transfer dialog box, nor do they support the SEND_COMMAND:
LOADIRL
.
NOTE:
IRL files must be sent to Port 3 (IR Device Port)
on the Transmitter or Receiver.
