Card Control 

Card control commands allow the main functions of the card to be 
executed over the RS-232 bus, or from the front panel’s programmable 
keys. 

13.  […S] – Save 

This command will save the configuration command being sent in 
memory.  When sending the command [VLI1A16C4S], after reset or 
power up, Input 1 on C4 will be restored with an input gain level of 
16. 

14.  [ONm] 

This command is used to select the input to be active on the output 
connector. 

Command Format: [ONmCn] 

= Input number (m = # from 1 to 8)  

Cn 

= Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots) 

Example: 

There is an    MT109-100 card in slot 4. Send the command [ON3C4] to 
select Input 3 as the active input.  If the output is disabled (muted), it 
will remain disabled. 

15.  [ON] 

This command is the same as the MUT0 command. 

16.  [OFF] 

This command is the same as the MUT1 command. 

17.  [MUT0] 

This command turns on the output volume without changing the 
input port selected and without changing any volume settings. 

Command Format:  [MUT0Cn] 

Cn 

= Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots) 

Example: 

Send the command [MUT0C4] to turn on the output volume for the 
card in slot 4. 

18.  [MUT1] 

This command turns off the output volume without changing the 
input port selected and without changing any volume settings. 

Command Format:  [MUT1C

n] 

Cn 

= Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots) 

Example: 

Send the command [MUT1C4] to turn off the output volume for the 
card in slot 4. 

19.  […P] – Path 

This command sets the path for the output, but is not active until the 
switch command, [SW], is executed. Commands ending in "P" are not 
executed immediately. The path for outputs on one or more cards can 
be preloaded. See the [SW] command for details. 

20.  [SW] – Switch 

The switch command immediately connects inputs and/or outputs, 
which were previously set with the path command on this card and all 
other cards in the system. 

Example: 

There is an MT109-100 in slot 2 and another MT109-100 in slot 3. 
Switch C2 to Input 1 at the same time a switching C3 to Input 4 by 
sending the following commands: 

[ON1C2P]     [ON4C3P]     [SW] 

21.  [ + ] 

See the [SEL] and [SELm] commands. 

22.  [ - ]  

See the [SEL] and [SELm] commands. 

23.  [SEL] and [SELm] 

These commands allow the output volume and input levels to be 
adjusted incrementally.  

Output Volume 

Command Format:  [SELCn] 

Cn 

= Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots) 

Input Level 

Command Format:  [SELmCn] 

= Input (m # from 0 to 8) 

Cn 

= Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots) 

Increment/Decrement  

Command Format:  [+] / [-] 

[+] 

= Increment level by one 

[-] 

= Decrement level by one 

Example: 

An MT109-100 is in slot 4. Adjust the gain on Input 2 from a level of 
10 to 15. 

1. 

[SEL2C4] 

 

The current gain level is 10. 

2. 

[ ---- ] [ ---- ] [ ---- ] 

 

The level is now 7 and is too low.
