"j" (5AA5) Reload Default Configuration:
This command should only be used with extreme caution. It will completely erase any configuration
information you have entered and load up a default set of configuration data. It the key isnÕt inserted
and turned on the MA-100, this command will be rejected.
EXAMPLE: to put the MA-100 into setup mode: j 5 A A 5

the MA-100, this command will be rejected.

"r" Configuration Dump:
This command responds with the current contents of the configuration RAM for the MA-100. This
string of approximately 16,000 ASCII characters is led off by the character string 's5AA5'. As it happens,
this is the lead in string for the CONFIGURATION LOAD command. This allows you to save the configura-
tion of one or more PA Systems in your computer for later retrieval or archiving, and then simply and
easily reload them at any time. To save the data to the disk of your computer:
1) Turn off the clock display on the CRT.
2) Tell your computer to save all ASCII received from the PA System.
3) Give this command to the MA-100 PA Master.
4) Save all stored input to your computer's disk drives.
This stored file can then be played back to the PA System where it will be reloaded into the configu-
ration RAM.
The data returned by this command is as follows:
BYTE 1 = 's'
BYTE 2 THROUGH 9 = Ô5AA5Õ
BYTES 10 THROUGH APPROXIMATELY 16,384 = 8 KBytes OF CONFIGURATION Data
BYTE 16,385 = CARRIAGE RETURN
BYTE 16,386 = LINE FEED
EXAMPLE: to poll the configuration for a PA System: r 0 0
