Infrared Limitations:
One transmitter can either send IR data to a specific device
(unicast) or broadcast to all devices active on the network (broadcast). Should be
noted however, that a sender cannot send data simultaneously to a range of devices
using multi-unicast
The data format used when sending IR data from control layer to a device is ‘Pronto’.
The link below points to a good description of Pronto format definition with
examples.

The pronto format is a series of hex numbers that describe everything that is needed
to generate the required waveform. It includes the carrier frequency, the ON/OFF
period along with data and error checksum. Large libraries of Pronto IR codes are
publicly available and easy to find on the web. For example, the code below is a
Pronto string to turn Sony BluRay player ON and OFF:
