Make sure that the MT110-104 card fits into place. Secure the card to the MultiTasker™ by tightening the retainer screws located on the top and bottom of the MT110-104 card. Each command consists of three parts: function, card ID, and an optional unit ID.
MULTITASKER™ On = connect to output n (n = from 1 to 16) Example: Ci = card ID (i = a slot number from 4 to 19) If one MT110-104 card is in slot #8 with outputs 1, 2 & 3 ON: Example: When sending command [C8], feedback will be returned as: To connect input 4 to output 2 on the card in slot #8, use the [I4O2C8] command. OFFSET: INPUT=0 OUTPUT=0 To connect input 4 to all of the outputs on the card in slot #8, use [I4O*C8] In01 Out1 VOLn = ON/OFF 7.3.5.
MULTITASKER™ Command Format: [OSImCi] the MT110-104 Matrix Switcher as 16x16, 8x8, 4x4 or 2x2 m = offset value from 0 to 128 Command Format: [MATmXnCi] Ci = card ID number (i = number from 4 to 19) mXn = matrix size: 16X16, 8X8, 4X4 or 2X2 Ci = card ID number (i = number from 4 to 19) Example: [OSI128C16] sets the input offset value to 128 for the card in slot #16. 16x16 7.3.8. [OSO] Input This command sets the output offset value.
