Instruction manual
Version: 100505 VTC-4000 INSTRUCTION MANUAL Page 22 of 27
G-n G Simulate hold Home & F-key to add/remove gang slaves
where n = a-j for slaves 1-10.
G<CR> Mm Ss[s…]<CR><LF> Request Currently Selected VTR(s) where m is the
master and s are one or more slaves. If any s entries,
even if only same as m, system is in gang mode.
Gm[s…]<CR> G Enter Gang mode where m is the master VTR and s are
zero or more slaves to be ganged. ASCII 0-9 indicate
VTRs 1-10. The gang key used is the latest set with Gn.
D VER: t-YYMMDD Request the type and Version Date of the firmware
where t is the type (always M), and YYMMDD are the
release date in Year, Month, and Day, respectively.
Years 90-99 indicate 1990-1999, years 00-89 indicate
2000-2089.
0 through 9 0 through 9 Simulate Numeric Keypad keystrokes.
A through j a through j Simulate F1 through F10 keystrokes.
<ESC> or - - Simulates Home keystroke.
! ! Simulates Setup keystroke.
^ ^ Simulates Up Arrow keystroke.
V v Simulates Down Arrow keystroke.
< < Simulates Left Arrow keystroke.
> > Simulates Right Arrow keystroke.
M M Simulates Mark keystroke.
<CR> or E E Simulates Enter keystroke.
S S Simulates Stop keystroke.
R r Simulates Rec keystroke (E-E toggle).
P P Simulates Play keystroke.
W W Simulates Rewind keystroke.
F F Simulates Fast Forward keystroke.
S s Simulates Shuttle keystroke.
V V Simulates Slow keystroke.
J J Simulates Jog keystroke.
C C Simulates Cue keystroke.
P p Simulates Preroll keystroke.
U u Simulates Stand By keystroke.
l (lowercase L) l Simulates double-Play keystroke for Synced Loop Play.
M m Simulates double-Mark keystroke. Must be preceded
with the M command. TC is captured frame accurately
from all 10 VTRs upon receipt of the M command, then
the subsequent m command restores the current Event’s
IN point, increments the Event number, and marks all 10
VTRs IN points.
H H Simulates Mark while holding Enter keystroke.
I (uppercase I) 6 ASCII Hex Digits
(0-9 = 0-9, A-F = 10-15)
Status LED indicators. Response is 3 bytes sent as
pairs of ASCII Hex digits, High nibble first. Byte 1: bits
0-7 = red LEDs above keys F1-F8. Byte 2: bits 0-1 =
red LEDs above keys F9-F10, bits 2-5 = SHTL, JOG,
REC, PLAY LEDs, bits 6-7 = record enables for VTR9-
VTR10. Byte 3: bits 0-7 = record enables for VTR1-
VTR8.
#n data<CR><LF> Request to download contents of personality register n
where n is 0 through 9, or w - the working register (the
personality currently in effect). The size and meaning of
data is dependent upon the firmware revision.
