Altinex MT108-102 manual Multi-Tasker

MULTI-TASKER

Ui = Unit ID (i = # from 0 to 9) (refer to the MT100-100 user’s guide for explanation)

Example:

If one MT108-103card is plugged in slot #2 of unit 3: Sending the command [VERC2U3], will yield the following feedback from the Multi-Tasker™

MT108-103 690-0127-007

MT108-103	= card type
690-0127-007	= software version

2.[C]

This command receives the status of the card.

Command Format: [CnUi] Cn = card id (n = from 1 to 19)

Ui = unit id (i = from 0 to 9) (refer to the MT100-100 user’s guide for explanation)

Example:

If one MT108-103card is plugged into slot #2 of unit 3 with outputs 1 and 2 ON, sending the command [C2U3] will yield the following feedback:

ON: 1,2 C02

If there is no card plugged in slot #2 of unit 3, the Multi-Tasker™ will not return any feedback.

3.[CiS]

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

Ci = card number

S = save configuration

If Inputs 1,2,3 and 4 are enabled, the feedback after sending the command [C4S], for slot 4, would be:

ON:1,2,3,4 C04 Saved

4.[SIG]

The Signal Present command tests for the presence of a signal on the input. After sending

the command, the feedback will be either "1" signifying a signal is present, or a "0" indicating no signal was detected.

Command Format: [SIGCnUi]

Cn	= card number
Ui	= unit ID

Example:

To check for the presence of an input signal on card 4, send the command [SIGC4] and verify feedback of "1" or "0".

5.[ON]

This command enables one or more outputs of a single card or a group of cards.

[ONmCnUi]: for a single card

This command enables output “m” without affecting any other outputs.

m = Output number (m = 1 to 4) n = Card ID number (n = 1 to 19) i = Unit ID number (i = 0 to 9)

Example:

1)[ON12C5U3]: Turns ON only outputs 1 and 2 of the MT108-103card located in slot #5 of the MT100-100 Enclosure with unit ID3.

2)[ON3C5U3]: Turns ON only output 3 of the MT108-103card located in slot #5 of the MT100-100 Enclosure with unit ID3. After the [ON12C5U3] and [ON3C5U3] commands have been executed, outputs 1, 2 and 3 will be ON.

3)[ONC5U3]: Turns ON all outputs of the card. This is the equivalent of sending the command [ON1234C5U3].

[ONmGkUi]: for a group of cards

This command enables output "m" for each card in group "k" of unit "i".

m= card output (m = # from 1-4) k = group number (k = # from 1-9) i = unit number (i = # from 0-9)
