INSTALLING YOUR MULTI-TASKER™ 6
Step 1. Slide the MT104-107 into an available
slot in the Multi-Tasker™ Enclosure in
order to connect to the bus. Make sure
that the
MT104-107 card fits into place.
Secure the card to the Multi-Tasker™ by
tightening the retainer screws located on
the top and bottom of the
MT104-107
card.
Step 2. The LED on the card panel will turn red
indicating that the card is in full operation.
Step 3. Connect a coaxial cable from the video
source to the input connector of the
MT104-107 . Connect the output
connectors of the MT104-107 to the
display devices through a coaxial cable.
Step 4. Starting from the left, identify the slot
number where the
MT104-107 card is
plugged into the Enclosure and note that
it is for RS-232 control.
OPERATION 7
7.1 RS-232 CONTROL
When used in the Multi-Tasker™ Enclosure, the
MT104-107 has many advanced remote control
capabilities, which are accessible through standard
RS-232 communication. The actual controlling can
be accomplished through a computer control
system or any other device capable of sending
RS-232 commands.
7.1.1 RS-232 INTERFACE
The RS-232 commands for the MT104-107 are
in a simple ASCII character format.
1. Square brackets “[ ]” are part of the
command.
2. Use uppercase letters for all commands.
After processing a command, an OK or ER will
be returned as feedback if "F" is included at the
end of a command string.
Commands such as [ON], [OFF], and [ IO] that
end in "S" will be saved into memory.
Commands not ending in "S" will still be
executed, but will not be restored when the
system is Reset or powered OFF then ON.
7.2 DESCRIPTION OF COMMANDS
Each command consists of three parts:
Function, card ID, and unit ID. [Function,
Card ID, Unit ID]
Example:
[VERC3U2]
VER = Function
C3
= Card ID
U2 = Unit ID
For Function, see a detailed explanation under
each command description.
The Card ID is an assigned value from 1 to 19
(1 to 8 or 1 to 4 depending on which enclosure
is being used), which represents the number of
slots. Card ID 0 (C0) is used for the controller
(see user’s guide for the MT100 -100).
Changing the position of a card will significantly
affect the commands recorded in software
definitions or a third party control system.
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 0, then each command can be
used without Ui (use command [SETU0]; see
user’s guide for the MT100 -100).
Example:
[VERC3]: for unit ID zero
[VERC3Ui]: for unit ID other than zero
[VERC3]:
equivalent to [VERC3U0]
1. [VER]
This command receives the software version
and card type for the
MT104-107 card.
Command Format: [VERCnUi]
Cn = card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Ui = Unit ID (i = # from 0 to 9)
Example:
An MT104-107 card is in slot #2 of unit 3.
