Message Translation

Short description

Used to translate between toggle and discrete commands (usually for infrared equipment). When a device only accepts toggle commands and it receives an "ON" or "OFF", it will be translated into "TOGGLE_POWER" depending on device status. Same is true then device accepts discrete commands, but the remote has only toggle button, in this case we will send "ON" or "OFF", again it depends on device state.

Available translations

Power

• ON/OFF to TOGGLE_POWER
• TOGGLE_POWER to ON/OFF

Inputs

• AN INPUT to (one/many) INPUT_SELECT
• INPUT_SELECT to one of the INPUTS

You'll have to set up corectly input sequence for this to work as expected.
