MULTI-TASKER™

The Card ID is an assigned value. It is equal to the enclosure slot number in which the card is installed. The value can range from 1 to 4 up to 1 to 20 depending on the enclosure.

Card ID 0 (C0) is used for the controller. See the MT100-100 User’s Guide for details.

The Group ID is a number representing a group of cards defined with the [WR] command. When using the Group ID, all cards in the group will perform the given instruction.

Changing the position of a card will significantly affect the commands recorded on software definitions or third party control systems.

The Unit ID has a value from 0 to 9. Unit ID 0 should be used for single unit operation. If the Unit ID is set to zero, each command may be used without Ui. Use the command [SETU0], as explained in the MT100-100 User’s Guide.

Example:

[VERC3]: For Unit ID Zero

[VERC3Ui]: For Unit ID other than Zero

[VERC3]: Equivalent to [VERC3U0]

1.[VER]

This command receives the software version and card type for the MT104-100/103card.

Command Format: [VERCnUi]

Cn = card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots) Ui = Unit ID (i = # from 0 to 9) Example:

There is one MT104-100/103card is in slot #2 of unit 3. Send the command [VERC2U3], and the Multi-Tasker™ Enclosure will return:

MT104-100 690-0158-004 MT104-100 = card type

690-0158-004 = software version

400-0082-005

9

2.[C]

This command receives the status of the card. Command Format: [CnUi]

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

Ui = Unit ID (i = # from 0 to 9)

Example:

There is one MT104-100card in slot #4. Sending the command [C4] to the Multi-Tasker™ will yield the following feedback:

ON 4 C04

 

ON 4

= Output 4 is selected and enabled

C04

= The card is in slot 4

If there is no card in slot #4, sending the [C4] command will not return any feedback.

3.[CnS]

This command saves the current status of the card. This configuration will be restored after system is reset or powered off then on.

Cn = card number (n = #1 to max slots) S = save configuration

If Input 1 is enabled, the feedback after sending the command [C4S], for slot 4, would be:

ON:1 C04 Saved

4.[?]

This command will return general information about the Multi-Tasker™ and cards installed in the unit.

Command Format: [?Ui]

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

Ui = Unit ID (i = from 0 to 9)
