2. [C] 
This command receives the status of the card. 
Command Format: [Cn] 
Cn  = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots) 
Example: 
There is one MT115-111 card in slot 4. Sending the command [C4] to 
the system will yield feedback similar to the following: 
INPUT#1 VIDEO GAIN 4 
 EQUALIZATION 32 
INPUT#2 VIDEO GAIN 4 
 EQUALIZATION 32 
In this case, both card inputs are set for a video gain of 4 and an 
equalization of 32. 
If there is no card in slot 4, sending the [C4] command will not return 
any feedback. 
3. [CnS] 
This command saves the card settings and displays the status. After the 
system is reset or powered off and on, the settings are restored. 
Cn  = card number 
S  = save configuration 
Example: 
Save the status by sending [C4S]. The feedback returned will be 
similar to the following: 
INPUT#1 VIDEO GAIN 4 
 EQUALIZATION 32 
INPUT#2 VIDEO GAIN 4 
 EQUALIZATION 32 
SAVED 
4. [...S] 
This command will save the configuration command being sent in 
memory. When sending the command [EQ1=16C4S], after reset or 
power up, the equalization for Input 1 will be set to 16. 
5. [CLR] 
This command clears the card settings and returns it to the factory 
default values. The defaults gain setting is 4 and the default 
equalization setting is 32 for each input. 
Command Format: [CLRCn] 
Cn  = Card ID (n = slot # from 1 to max slots) 
Example: 
In order to clear the card in slot 4, send the command [CLRC4]. The 
card will respond with the following feedback when complete: 
FACTORY RESET COMPLETED   
6. [TEST] 
This command performs a series of tests on the internal memory and 
displays a pass message if successful. Otherwise, failures are indicated. 
Command Format: [TESTCn] 
Cn  = Card ID (n = slot # from 1 to max slots) 
Upon completion, the system will display the results. This feedback 
will be similar to the following: 
MEMORY IC TEST RESULTS: 
MEMORY IC PASS 
7. [HELP] 
This command displays information available for the MultiTasker 
interface commands. 
Command Format: [HELPCn] 
Cn  = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots) 
Example: 
In order to display the RS-232 commands available for the MT115-111 
card in slot 4, send the command [HELPC4]. The commands along 
with a brief description will be displayed in the Terminal Window. 
Feedback Control 
The next commands are a function of both the card and the front panel and 
allow flexibility over when and how card information is displayed. 
8. [FBD] 
This command turns feedback delay on or off. It is necessary when 
installing some newer cards in older systems. If the system does not 
receive all of the feedback from the card, the card may be 
communicating too fast. This command will slow down the card's 
communication rate. 
Command Format: [FBDm] 
m  = Delay (0= no delay, 1= delay 100mS) 
Example: 
The command [HELPC4] is sent to the card in slot 4. Some of the 
HELP file is displayed on the screen, but most is missing. Send the 
command [FBD1] to slow down the rate at which the card sends 
feedback to the system.
