I would like to use the IR transmitter included in a cubox. I did not found any documentation to use it, so I would want to learn how to communicate with periphericals on linux.
Commands like lshw,lspci did not gave me any information, I think I would have to make it recognizable by the kernel in adding a module, but firstly, my guess is that there is somewhere a way to identify the periphiphical.
Here is the outpout of the command dmesg | grep tty
[ 0.000000] Kernel command line: root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootwait rw console=tty1 console=ttymxc0,115200 consoleblank=0 video=mxcfb0:dev=hdmi,1280x720M@60,if=RGB24,bpp=16 dmfc=3 ahci_imx.hotplug=1 pci=nomsi loop.max_part=15

[ 1.431600] 21f0000.serial: ttymxc3 at MMIO 0x21f0000 (irq = 61, base_baud = 5000000) is a IMX
ttymxc0 and ttymxc3 could be the ir receiver and transmitter, but how to be sure, and how communicate with such devices?
I already been able to receive IR signals from the IR receiver with the lirc command irrecord, but the irsend command returns the error hardware does not support sending
