Front Panels for the MultiTasker 12-Slot Enclosure
The MT101-114,MT101-115,and MT101-117are currently the three front panels available for the MT100-108, 12-Slot MultiTasker. The front panel is ordered separately based on the best solution for the particular application.
Select the MT101-115panel for applications in which the MultiTasker needs to be controlled from the front panel. This panel provides 36 keys which are user-programmable. This is accomplished by connecting a computer to the MT101-115through its 9-pin D-Sub RS-232 communication port and programming the functionality of each key using Windows® software provided by ALTINEX. In applications where more power is required, the MT101-117should be used.
Once programmed, the keys can be used to affect the pre-programmed switching functions and
operational functions such as press, press-and-hold, and turning LEDs on and off. The keys offer removable transparent faces allowing access to removable labels for easy identification of programmed functions. The key layout on the MT101-115/117resembles a typical switcher or matrix switcher configuration with larger keys used for input/output control and smaller keys used for special features.
The MT101-114panel can be used for applications in which the MultiTasker will only be controlled with a computer or third-party control system. Although it does not offer any keys, it does have the main microprocessor for the MultiTasker installed on the inside of the panel which is required for external RS-232 control of the MT100-108.
