MULTI-TASKER™
10
The Card ID is an assigned value. It is equal to
the enclosure slot number in which the card is
installed. The value can range from 1 to 4 up to 1
to 20 depending on the enclosure.
Card ID 0 (C0) is used for the controller. See the
MT100-100 User’s Guide for details.
The Group ID is a number representing a group
of cards defined with the [WR] command. When
using the Group ID, all cards in the group will
perform the given instruction.
Changing the position of a card will significantly
affect the commands recorded on software
definitions or third party control systems.
The Unit ID has a value from 0 to 9. Unit ID 0
should be used for single unit operation. If the
Unit ID is set to zero, each command may be
used without Ui. Use the command [SETU0], as
explained in the MT100-100 User’s Guide.
Example:
[VERC3]:
For Unit ID Zero
[VERC3Ui]: For Unit ID other than Zero
[VERC3]:
Equivalent to [VERC3U0]
1. [VER]
This command displays the software version and
card type for the MT103-123 card.
Command Format: [VERCnUi]
Cn = Card ID (n = slot # from 1 to max slots)
Ui = Unit ID (i = # from 0 to 9)
Example:
An MT103-123 card is in slot #2. Send the
command [VERC2], and the Multi-Tasker™
Enclosure will return the following feedback:
MT103-123 690-0197-001
MT103-123
= card type
690-0197-001 = software version
2. [C]
This command receives the status of the card.
Command Format: [CnUi]
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Ui = Unit ID (i = from 0 to 9)
Example:
There is one MT103-123 card in slot #10.
Sending
the
command
[C10]
to
the
Multi-Tasker™ will yield the following feedback:
ON, EQ=0 C10
ON
= Outputs are ON
EQ=0
= Equalization is set to zero
C10
= The card is in slot 10
If there is no card in slot #10, sending the
command [C10] will not return any feedback.
3. [CnS]
This command saves the card settings and
displays the status. After the system is reset or
powered off and then on, the card restores the
saved settings.
Cn = card number
S
= save configuration
Example:
Save the status by sending the command [C10S].
The feedback returned will be similar to the
following:
ON, EQ=0 C10 Saved
4. [?C]
This command will return general information
about the card and the status.
Command Format: [?CnUi]
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Ui = Unit ID (i = from 0 to 9)
