MAS7.1 Command Reference
‘SS’ Save States (Continued)
Command format:
SS states,$
Backup the selected states into EEPROM
Where:
states
= States to backup.
1 = Backup the current configuration as the new power on settings.
2 = Backup all unsaved data from commands that can be suffixed with a ‘$’.
3 = Backup all unsaved data and save new power on settings.
This command can be use to delay the saving of data in commands that can have their data saved in
EEPROM.
For instance the LED mode settings can be changed using:
LI 3
This command will set the MAS7.1 to have its LED on bright all the time, but because the command was not
suffixed with the ‘$’ character, the setting is only valid until power is disconnected from the MAS7.1. Once
power is restored the settings used will be those that were previously saved in EEPROM.
To save the new LI settings you can issue the LI command with just a ‘$’
LI $
Or you can use the ‘SS’ command to save all unsaved data, which will include the LI setting:
SS 2,$
The ‘SS’ command is also used to change the initial power on settings.
For instance if when initially plugged in, you want the MAS7.1 to turn itself on and switch to input 2, you can:
P 1
Turn on the MAS7.1
SZ 1,2
Switch to input 2
SS 1,$
Save the current configuration as the new power on settings
‘SZ’ Set Input (*)
This is the command used to change inputs on the MAS7.1 in a Zektor universal way, meaning that this com-
mand will work on Zektor matrix switches as well as the MAS7.1. Using this command the MAS7.1 is treated
as a 3 input, 1 zone matrix switch.
