IRS4 and only 1 port?

From what I remember in class, AXLink devices have only 1 port: 1. How do I specify which IR (port) to use on an AXB-IRS4? I tried mapping my IR file to different ports (dvDVD = 129:3:0, dvSAT = 129:2:0) and transferring the IR file to port 3(which took, btw), but everything from the DVD seems to emit from port 1. (The #1 LED on the IRS4.)
Do I need to do something different for an IRS4 when it comes to the command structure?
I have tried this:
I also tried this:
but that didn't do anything.

I have tried this:
Button_Event[dvTP,1]
Button_Event[dvTP,2]
Button_Event[dvTP,3]
Button_Event[dvTP,4]
Button_Event[dvTP,5]
{
PUSH:
{
PULSE[dvDVD,BUTTON.INPUT.CHANNEL]
}
}
which emitted from IR port 1.I also tried this:
BUTTON_EVENT[dvTp,1]
{
PUSH:
{
SEND_COMMAND dvDVD, "'SP',(BUTTON.INPUT.CHANNEL)"
}
}
but that didn't do anything.

Figured it out...
Ok, that's silly of me. Finally decided to refresh my Online Tree and there it was - all 4 "ports" listed as individual addresses: 129:1:0, 130:1:0, 131:1:0, and 132:1:0. That sure makes it easier! -
What type of card frame are you using? I am using IRS4 cards and they use 1 address with 4 ports. If you want to test things and make sure that the ports on the card are working, you can use the diagnostics window to manually emit IR codes.

I'm using the AXB-IRS4 box.

Guess I spoke too soon...
I transferred my IRL file (131:1:0 is the 3rd port of my IRS4[dip switches set to 129]) successfully and made changes in my workspace to reflect the current dip switch settings, compiled and transferred to my ni-700, but now i get nothing. No IR lights, nada. I can open the notifications tab and see that the processor is seeing the button press and release, but nothing else occurs. What could I be doing wrong now? -
FIXED AT LAST!!!
The holiest of all holy phrases has saved my day..
Chaos reigns within.
Reflect, repent, and reboot.
Order shall return.
A portion of the friggin IRS4 must have locked up after a file transfer or something. It would still show in the online tree and I even tried pulling the Axlink cable out, but the only thing that fixed it was pulling power...go figure. The same thing I tell my wife EVERY time when it comes to electronics...power. -
Of all the Axlink boxes I have used, the IRS4 seems to have been the most flaky.
