Hi,

I have managed to setup 1 IRToy successfully on Ubuntu 20.04. However I
have a use case where I need multiple IRToys in order to control multiple
devices from the Ubuntu machine. I have ensured IRtoys are updated to
latest FW v22. When connecting a second IRToy, Ubuntu assigns /dev/ttyACM1
as expected (I know and will implement correct udev rules to ensure
consistent assignment). However I am unable to select a specific IRToy to
communicate on.

I have read the docs regarding multiple lirc instances etc and my setup was
to:
1. stop the default system lircd service.
2. start 2 instances lircd from the command line on two terminals as
follows:

sudo /usr/sbin/lircd --driver=irtoy --device=/dev/ttyACM0
--output=/var/run/lirc/lircd0 --pidfile=/run/lirc/lircd0.pid --nodaemon
sudo /usr/sbin/lircd --driver=irtoy --device=/dev/ttyACM1
--output=/var/run/lirc/lircd1 --pidfile=/run/lirc/lircd1.pid --nodaemon

On another terminal if I try sending a command to device 0:
irsend -d /var/run/lirc/lircd0 SEND_ONCE sumsung voldown

Then both IRToy 0 (/dev/ttyACM0) and 1 (/dev/ttyACM1) transmits instead of
just the one device. The same occurs when using /var/run/lirc/lircd1 i.e.
both IRToy devices transmit.

I read about setting transmitters however when I try this command I get an
error:

irsend -d /var/run/lirc/lircd0 SET_TRANSMITTERS 1
Error running command: Input/output error

Im hoping someone would be able to point me in the right direction around
using multiple devices and being able to send remotes codes to only a
specific device. I would like to use upto 6 IRToys together.

Thanks
