Command Format: [?Cn]
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Example:
The MT105-110 in slot 4 has Input 1 connected
to all outputs and all outputs are off. Send the
command [?C4] and receive feedback similar to
the following.
[(MT105-110C04)(VR690-0126-015C04)
(ON00000000C04)(MA0101010101010101C04)]
All status feedback is enclosed in brackets, “[ ]”.
Each data field within the status is enclosed in
parentheses. The first two characters identify
the status type. The last three characters are the
card’s ID.
MT105-110 = Card model number
VR690-0126-015 = Firmware version
ON00000000 = Output ON/OFF status
MA01010101...01 = Matrix connections
The ON/OFF status line is read from left to right
as Outputs 1-8. A "1" indicates the output is on
and a "0" indicates the output is off.
The I/O connections are also read left to right
representing Outputs 1-8 and the input to which
each is connected. The first two digits show the
input number to which Output 1 is connected.
The third and forth digits are for Output 2 and so
on.
