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.

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!

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?
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.
