FEEDBACK COMMANDS
The next four commands are a function of both
the card and the front panelfirmware.
4. [?]
This command displays general information
about the MultiTasker and cards installed in the
unit.
Command Format: [?Ui]
Ui = Unit ID (i = from 0 to 9)
Example:
A MultiTasker with ID 1 has a front panel with
part number MT101-101 and contains an
MT103-122 and an MT103-123. Send the
command [?U1] and receive the following
feedback:
[(MT101-101U1)(MT103-122C03)
(MT103-123C04)]
MT101-101U1 = Panel model/unit ID
MT103-122C03 = An MT103-122 is in slot 3
MT103-123C04 = An MT103-123 is in slot 4
5. [?C]
This command will display general information
about the card and its status.
Command Format: [?Cn]
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Example:
The MT103-123in slot 4has a software
equalization value of 25 and the output is
enabled. Send the command [?C4] to receive
feedback status similar to the following.
[(MT103-123C04)(VR690-0197-005C04)
(ONC04)(EQ25C04)(SI0C04)]
All status feedback is enclosed in brackets, “[ ]“.
Each data field within the status is enclosed in
parentheses. The first two characters identify
the status type. The last three characters are the
card’s ID.
MT103-123= Card model number
VR690-0197-005 = Firmware version
ON = Output status
EQ25 = Video equalization
SI0 = Input signal status
The output status line always reads“ON” since
the MT103-123does not have an output disable
feature.
The software video equalization value is shown
following the EQ prefix, or 25 out of 50.
The input signal detect line will display a “1”
following the SI prefix if an input signal is
detected, otherwise a “0” will follow the prefix.

This command enables automatic feedback
from the front panel. The command affects any
card with auto-feedback capability, not just the

STA0, off. For more details, see the [?Cn]
command definition.
