  • Command Name: Label of the IR signal command that will be shown in the command list.
  • RAW Signal HEX Code: Hexadecimal representation of the raw IR signal data used for remote control commands. It consists of a sequence of hexadecimal digits that encode the timing and modulation information required to reproduce an IR signal accurately. Each digit or pair of digits corresponds to a specific aspect of the IR signal.
