7.2 DESCRIPTION OF COMMANDS
Each command consists of three parts:
Function, Card ID, and Unit ID.
[ Function , Card ID , Unit ID ]
Example: [VERC3U2]
VER = Function
C3 = Card ID or Group ID
U2 = Unit ID (optional for Unit ID 0)
For Function, see a detailed explanation under
each command description.
The Card ID is a unique identifier. It is equal to
the enclosure slot number, or it may be an
assigned value. As the slot number, the value
can range from 1-4 up to 1-to-20 depending on
the enclosure. If the value is assigned, the ID
may be a maximum of 99.
Card ID 0 (C0) is used for the controller and
cannot be reassigned.
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]
COMMANDS
1. [VER]
This command displays the software version
and card type for the card.
Command Format: [VERCnUi]
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Ui
= Unit ID (i = # from 0 to 9)
Example:
Send the command [VERC2] to check the
version of the MT109-100 in slot 2. The system
will return the following feedback:
[MT109-100 690-0179-006]
MT109-100 = card type
690-0179-006 = software version
2. [C]
This command displays the status of the card.
Command Format: [CnUi]
Cn = card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Ui
= unit id (i = 0 to 9)
Example:
An MT109-100 card is in slot 4. Sending the
command [C4] to the MultiTasker will yield
feedback similar to the following:
ON 1 C04
OUTVOL=32/32
INVOL1=32/32
INVOL2=32/32
INVOL3=32/32
INVOL4=32/32
INVOL5=32/32
INVOL6=32/32
INVOL7=32/32
INVOL8=32/32
If there is no card in slot 4, sending the [C4]
command will not return any feedback.
3. [CnS]
This command saves the status of the card's
current settings to be restored after the system
is reset, or powered off and then on.
