 These three functions allow you to control whether the airsoft or mechanical recoil action (whichever is currently selected) will be included in the Cannon Fire function. When enabled, the airsoft/mechanical recoil action is included when the Cannon Fire function is called. If disabled the airsoft/mechanical recoil action is omitted from the Cannon Fire function, but the remaining actions will occur as usual, or per their own settings (these include IR, flash, servo recoil, and the cannon sound). The Toggle function swaps between enabled and disabled. The primary use of these functions is to selectively enable or disable an airsoft unit from your transmitter, without affecting other firing effects. These three functions allow you to control whether the airsoft or mechanical recoil action (whichever is currently selected) will be included in the Cannon Fire function.

 +===IR - Enable | Disable | Toggle (D)===
 +Use these functions to enable/disable the IR functionality on-the-fly. Typically this is not necessary but can be useful in certain circumstances. Some users have found that when their IR Apple/mushroom is disconnected, the floating receive line may occasionally pick up stray electrical noise which the TCB could interpret as an IR hit. This can be avoided by disabling IR functionality, either in OP Config, or if you want the option to turn it back on without re-connecting to a computer, by using one of these functions.

 Almost everyone will want to have the smoker controlled automatically by the TCB to reflect engine speed. But if you are not using a smoker and would like a general purpose, unidirectional speed control rated at 3 amps, or for some reason you just want to control the smoker manually, change the **Smoker Control** setting to **Manual** on the [[wiki:opconfig:tabs:motors#smoker|Motors tab]] of OP Config. Only then will this function appear in the function list. When assigned to an analog trigger (such as a knob on your transmitter), the speed of any motor attached to the SMOKER output can be varied manually. Note that the output will be uni-directional - in other words, the motor will only turn in one direction from stop to full speed. If you want to reverse the direction you must physically swap the wires to the motor.  Almost everyone will want to have the smoker controlled automatically by the TCB to reflect engine speed.

-Almost everyone will want to have the smoker controlled automatically by the TCB to reflect engine speed. But if you are not using a smoker and would like a general purpose, high current capable digital switch, then change the **Smoker Control** setting to **Manual** on the [[wiki:opconfig:tabs:motors#smoker|Motors tab]] of OP Config, and then these two on/off functions appear in the function list. When assigned to a digital trigger (such as a switch on your transmitter), the output of the smoker connector will be turned on or off. The smoker output will switch full battery voltage and can source up to 3 amps. Use this instead of a relay if you need to power a higher-current accessory and turn it on/off from your transmitter.   +Almost everyone will want to have the smoker controlled automatically by the TCB to reflect engine speed.
