NAME
       irsend - basic LIRC program to send infra-red commands

SYNOPSIS
       irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...]

DESCRIPTION
       Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) com‐
       mands. This is intended for remote control of electronic	 devices  such
       as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc.

       DIRECTIVE can be:
	  SEND_ONCE	    - send CODE [CODE ...] once
	  SEND_START	    - start repeating CODE
	  SEND_STOP	    - stop repeating CODE
	  LIST		    - list configured remote items
	  SET_TRANSMITTERS  - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...]
	  SIMULATE	    - simulate IR event

       REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration
       file.

       CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as  it  appears  in
       the lircd configuration file.

       NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device.

       For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty:

	  LIST	 ""    ""   - list all configured remote names
	  LIST REMOTE  ""   - list all codes of REMOTE
	  LIST REMOTE CODE  - list only CODE of REMOTE

       The  SIMULATE  command  only works if it has been explicitly enabled in
       lircd.

       -h --help
	      display usage summary

       -v --version
	      display version

       -d --device
	      use given lircd socket [/dev/lircd]

       -a --address=host[:port]
	      connect to lircd at this address

       -# --count=n
	      send command n times

EXAMPLES
	  irsend LIST DenonTuner ""
	  irsend SEND_ONCE  DenonTuner PROG-SCAN
	  irsend SEND_ONCE  OnkyoAmpli VOL-UP VOL-UP VOL-UP VOL-UP
	  irsend SEND_START OnkyoAmpli VOL-DOWN ; sleep 3
	  irsend SEND_STOP  OnkyoAmpli VOL-DOWN
	  irsend SET_TRANSMITTERS 1
	  irsend SET_TRANSMITTERS 1 3 4
	  irsend SIMULATE "0000000000000476 00 OK TECHNISAT_ST3004S"

FILES
       /etc/lircd.conf
	      Default lircd configuration file.	 It  should  contain  all  the
	      remotes,	their infra-red codes and the corresponding timing and
	      waveform details.

DIAGNOSTICS
       If lircd is not running (or  /dev/lircd	lacks  write  permissions)  rc
       aborts with the following diagnostics:
       "irsend: could not connect to socket"
       "irsend: Connection refused" (or "Permission denied").

SEE ALSO
       The  documentation  for	lirc  is  maintained  as  html pages. They are
       located under html/ in the documentation directory.
