Rsi, SIDnCi, Sid+ | Altinex MT104-100/103 manual

MULTI-TASKER™

690-0122-019 = Version 019 or later.

690-0123-005 = Version 005 or later.

690-0124-019 = Version 019 or later.

NOTE: In MTSetup™, send the command [VER] from the Terminal Window. The system will respond with feedback similar to the following:

[690-0122-015 690-0123-005 690-0124-019]

Check the last three digits against the numbers above to determine if the Card ID commands can address all 99 Card ID's.

Some cards require more than one slot in the Multi-Tasker™ system. As an example, some matrix switcher cards require 4 slots. If there are 5 of these cards installed, they would be numbered C4, C8, C12, C16 and C20. Changing the Card ID allows the user to define the cards as C1, C2, C3, C4 and C5.

Another use for changing the Card ID is to be able to use multiple systems without having to set each unit to a different Unit ID. All systems may be left as Unit ID 0 for ease of programming. The cards in the first unit may be numbered 1-10 and in the second unit 11-20.

18.[RSI]

This command resets the card ID's in the system. After sending this command, each card ID in the system will match the slot number of the card. Use this command along with the SID commands that follow. The [RSI] command MUST be used prior to changing Card ID's once they have already been set.

Command Format: [RSI]

Example:

Send the command [RSI] to the system with Unit ID 0. The card in slot 1 will have ID 1, the card in slot 2 will have ID 2 and so on.

400-0082-005

19.[SIDn]

This command sets all the cards installed in the Multi-Tasker™ system to the same Card ID. After sending this command, all cards will be addressed with the same ID. Use caution when sending this command to a system with multiple board types.

Command Format: [SIDn]

n= Card ID (n = # from 1 to 99) Example:

Send the command [SID1] to the system. All the cards in the system now have ID 1. Any commands that are sent to Card ID 1 will be received and executed by each card.

20.[SIDnCi]

This command sets the Card ID of a single card to a number from 1 to 99.

Command Format: [SIDnCi]

n	= Card ID (n = # from 1 to 99)
Ci	= Slot Number (i = # from 1 to max slots)

Example:

Send the command [SID50C10] to set the ID of the card in slot #10 to an ID of 50.

21.[SID+]

This command sets the Card ID of all the cards in a system to their slot number plus the offset value.

Command Format: [SID+n]

n = Offset amount (n = # from 0 to 99)

The maximum Card ID is 99, so subtract the highest slot number from 99 to find the maximum offset. For example, in an 8 slot enclosure, the maximum offset would be 91. The slot number, 8, plus the offset, 91, equals 99.
