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 1-20 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.
NOTE: In this guide, cards are referenced by
their ID (C1, C2...C99). Typically, the ID number
will be equivalent to the slot number. Groups will
be referenced by their ID (G1-G8).
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 range from U0 to U20. U0
should be used for single unit operation. If the ID
is set to U0, each command may be used
without Ui. Use the command [SETU0], as
explained in the MT101-101 User’s Guide.
Example:
[VERC3]: For U0
[VERC3Ui]: For ID other than U0
[VERC3]: Equivalent to [VERC3U0]

BASIC COMMANDS
1. [VER]
This command displays the card’s model
number, firmware version, and ID number.
Command Format: [VER]
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Example:
There is an MT105-110 card in slot 4. Sending
the command [C4] to the MultiTasker will yield
the following feedback:
[MT105-110 690-0126-015 C04]
2. [C]
This command displays the status of the card’s
input-to-output connections and whether each
output is enabled or disabled.
Command Format: [Cn]
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Example:
There is an MT105-110 card in slot 4. Sending
the command [C4] to the MultiTasker will yield
feedback similar to the following:
Matrix:16X8
In01-Out1 OFF
In01-Out2 OFF
In01-Out3 OFF
In01-Out4 OFF
In01-Out5 OFF
In01-Out6 OFF
In01-Out7 OFF
In01-Out8 OFF
In the above example, Input 1 is connected to all
outputs and all outputs are disabled.
If there is no card in slot 4, sending the [C4]
command will not return any feedback.
