More Robosapian Commands

I think @DJ will have the answer for this question...:) I want to create more commands for the Robosapian then the 26 listed in the ARC Script Commands. Can the for instance, "SendSerial(d1,9600,0x04)" be sent to the Robosapian's IR connection points ? I understand the clock speed is 1/1200 of a sec and 4/1200 of a sec as per AiboHack-Bonyard..

" The IR Carrier is 39.2kHz. Data is modulated using a space coded signal with 8 data bits (data clock is 1200Hz, but actual data rate varies depending on the data). You can skip the IR and IR modulation by wiring directly into the main PCBoard. This can be encoded easily by almost any small microprocessor. For modulating the signals yourself, the signal looks something like this: Timing based on 1/1200 second clock (~.833ms) Signal is normally high (idle, no IR). Start: signal goes low for 8/1200 sec. Data bits: for each of 8 data bits, space encoded signal depending on bit value Sends the most significant data bit first If the data bit is 0: signal goes high for 1/1200 sec, and low for 1/1200 sec. If the data bit is 1: signal goes high for 4/1200 sec, and low for 1/1200 sec. BTW: The first bit (msb) is always 1 (valid codes are from $80 to $FF) When completed, signal goes high again. No explicit stop bit. Minimal between signals is not known." If the baud can be adjusted to the advised clock rate I believe it should work:) (ignorance is bliss) The 26 commands already in the ARC commands are wonderful ! but as usual this Forum is always pushing the boundaries and sharing their discoveries!

In advance , thank you DJ! :)

No, you can only send the commands that are listed :)

Ok .....Thanks for responding so quickly! Resolved...( Perhaps if the EZ were able to control an IF transmitter?....crazy talk)
