Altinex MT107-103 manual Afb, ACKC8, Ack, STA1

MULTITASKER

12.[AFB]

This command enables/disables the command acknowledgement feedback, “[ ]”, from the MT107-103.This setting is automatically saved to memory and can only be changed by sending the [AFB] command a second time. Use this command when sending a large number of commands to the MT107-103at the same time. If monitoring feedback to keep track of events, the [ACK] command can be used to notify the system an event has occurred by sending the [ACK] command last.

Command Format: [AFBmCn]

m = 1 for ON, 0 for OFF

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

Example:

Send 16 commands to the MT107-103in slot 8 to initialize the card with Input 1 to Output 1, Input 2 to Output 2, and so on. The required commands are as follows:

[I1O1C8],

[I2O2C8],

etc.

Send the [AFB] command first, and then the switching commands.

[AFB0C8],

[I1O1C8],

[I2O2C8],

etc.

[I16O16C8]

[ACKC8]

In the above example, the brackets, “[ ]”, will not be displayed after each command is executed. However, in order to notify a user or controller that the last command has been executed, the [ACK] command is sent last. Since each command is executed in order, the [ACK] command is used to display the brackets, “[ ]”, at the end of the command group.

13.[ACK]

This command displays the open and closed brackets, “[ ]”, and is intended for use when feedback is disabled.

Command Format: [ACKCn]

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