Command Format: {SETVKn}

Kn = Key # (n = # from 1 to 36)

Example:

C2 is an MT109-100 and Key 8 is programmed
{WRK8=8,108,0,0,0}. SUB8 = “RUPC2”

and

SUB108 = “RSTC2.” Pressing Key 8 begins
ramping up the MT109-100’s output volume.
Releasing Key 8 stops the ramping.

47. {CLRVK}

This command resets a key to normal function.

Command Format: {CLRVKn}

Kn = Key # (n = # from 1 to 36)

Example:

Change Key 8 in the previous example back to a
normal key by sending {CLRVK8}. Key 8 will
now support the normal 5 states of operation.

48. {UPLK}

This command uploads a key program from the
panel so it may be saved and edited as a text
file. The same file may be downloaded back into
the panel. Sub numbers and labels are saved,
but VOLUME and LOCKED settings are not.

Before uploading or downloading, the rate must
be set to the default zero, [RATE=0]. There is no
unit ID information in the key program. The key
program may be uploaded from any unit, for
example {UPLKU2}. However, when
downloading a key program all units connected
to the bus will receive the same key program.

There are two parts to the key program file. The
first contains the subroutine information and the
second the label information.

SUBROUTINE:

Format:

{ $ , Key# , : , subroutines }

Example:

{ $ 0 1: 1 , 5 1 , 0 , 0 , 0 }

LABEL:

Format:

{ % , Key# , : , Label }

Example:

{ % 0 1 : VIDEO_CAMERA }

Command Format: {UPLK}

n

= Key # (n = # from 1 to 36)
