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. If the card is moved to another slot, its ID number will be the new slot number.
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. If the card in slot 1 is then moved to slot 4, the card ID will then be 4.
19.[SIDn]
This command sets all the cards installed in the
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+n]
This command sets the ID of all the cards in a system to their slot number plus an offset value.
Command Format: [SID+n]
n= Offset amount (n = # from 0 to 98) The maximum 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, equal 99.
Example:
There are two, 20 slot enclosures connected together during normal operation. The first unit uses the default ID’s which are equal to the slot numbers. The second unit uses the same Unit ID, but has the card ID's offset by 20.
Connect the computer to the second unit only and send [SID+20] to set the ID of all the cards in the enclosure to their slot number plus 20. Reconnect both units to the computer.
The cards in the first unit will be referenced as Card ID's
22.[RSN]
This command reads the slot number of the card with a specified ID number, and returns the value to the system to be displayed in the terminal window. If more than one card has the same ID, each slot number will be displayed.
Command Format: [RSNCi]
Ci = Card ID (i = # from 1 to 99)
Example:
The card in slot 4 takes up four slots in the enclosure. Its ID was set to 1 since it is the first card installed in the system, reading from left to right. Send the command [RSNC1] to find the slot number of this card. The system responds with the following feedback:
