I don't have a clue regarding the weath-ifc, but the ir behavior
is explained in UPD.DOC:

   278)	ECS now buffers outgoing IR-Signals for IR-Interface-2B and
	IR-Interface-2C. This keeps ECS from becoming non-responsive
	when a lot of signals are being transmitted (as might be the
	case when setting up for a VCR recording). When querying Item
	States before the start of each Event pass, ECS will transmit
	up to 5 signals from the FIFO when the IR-Interface is "read".
	This number may be adjusted by placing the following line in
	\AUTOEXEC.BAT:

		SET ECS_IR_TX_Q={d}

	where {d} is the desired count. To disable buffering, specify 0.
	The FIFO is cleard whenever the IR-Interface Item is reset (either
	via <F5> or setting it to RESET).
