WI-FI TO IR / SERIAL CONTROL COMMAND LOG

Prepared: September 8, 2026. Save a local plain-text copy.
Purpose: separate command transmission from confirmed equipment state.
Scope: a documented, harmless audio/video bench test on owned equipment.

EQUIPMENT
Appliance model/revision / control manual:
Bridge family/model/firmware / exact API version:
Client and network path:
IR code source and emitter arrangement, if used:
Serial electrical interface and pinout, if used:
Serial baud, data bits, parity, stop bits, flow control and terminator:
Do not infer electrical compatibility from a connector's appearance.

COMMAND RECORD -- repeat for each test
Client command ID / date-time and timezone:
Initial appliance state and how established:
Exact documented request (redact secrets):
Command class: query / discrete target state / toggle / other
Expected bridge response and timeout, milliseconds:
Actual response, raw reply reference and elapsed milliseconds:
Bridge output/transmission evidence:
Expected appliance state:
Observed appliance state, observation time and confirmation method:
Outcome: confirmed / known failed / unknown
Retry policy and reason:

SEQUENCE AND RECOVERY
Required readiness feedback or documented/measured delay:
Single-command repetition result:
Bridge restart result:
Network interruption and queued-command behavior:
Unresolved defect / owner / next check:

FICTIONAL AV EXAMPLE
Initial input 1 -> documented discrete select-input-2 command -> bridge
completion -> visual confirmation of input 2. Repeat once: input remains 2.
A toggle requires a different retry policy because repeating it can undo
the first change. After an unknown toggle outcome, refresh actual state or
ask for a user observation before deciding the next command.

API CONTEXT
For iTach, completeir reports the bridge's IR exchange completion. Confirm
the appliance separately. Use the API for your actual product family.
