I know this is not an ECS "problem" but something I am not understanding.
Running ECST 4.0 with a HomeVision-PC.  Have been very pleased especially
with its IR performance.
I have a "speaking" event.  ECS closes the Speak Relay which causes all the
zones to be connected to the amps.  Announcement made, ECS opens the speak
relay.  Now I am trying to Mute a receiver say with an IR Command.  Even if
I put the IR command first before picking the speak relay, ECS picks the
Speak Relay, Speaks unpicks the relay and then mutes the Receiver.  Of
course it is too late, you have now missed the announcement.  I know this
has something to do with cycles or passes.
On a related note I can not send two IR Signal commands in the same IF THEN
statement.  Right now I am starting a timer. muting device one, two seconds
later muting device 2.  Why is that happening?

Again I know this is not an ECS problem, but something I am not
understanding how IR-Signal-J is working
