input on a connnected switcher.

X?

is the actual input channel

(including inputs on a slaved
switcher) to select when button

Y?

is pressed. The values for

these variables are shown at left.

Default: X? = Y?

00 = input 0
01 = input 1
02 = input 2
...
98 = input 98
99 = input 99

1 = input button 1

Map input 6 (an input on a
slaved switcher) to the MLC’s
input button 4. When button
4 is pressed, the A/V system
switches to input 6, and any
instructions (DVD or VCR
control commands, for example)
associated with input button 4
on the MLC are executed.

Y?]

This command tells the MLC to
repeat a specifi c button’s press
commands at a fi xed interval (a
set frequency).

X?

= the number of the button/

switch (1 - 128). See the
diagrams on pages 5-36 and
5-37.

Y?

is the repeat interval: 0 to

65535, in 20 ms steps.
1 = 20 ms, 2 = 40 ms, 3 = 60 ms,...
65535 = 1,310,700 ms = 21.845
minutes.
If

Y?

= 0, the MLC stops

repeating the selected button’s
commands.

Example:

9*850*45#

RptRate*9*850

]

The commands associated
with the input 1 button press
are executed every 850x20 ms
(= 17,000 ms = 17 seconds) until
the repeat rate for that button is
set to 0 (“cleared”).

N The button repeat SIS command (

X?

*

Y?

*45 #) must be entered each time you want to have a button press trigger

repeated command releases. Also, only one button at a time can be set to repeat: multiple buttons can not be in repeat
mode simultaneously.

N The

Repeat Rate...

feature found in Global Confi gurator is based on this command. However, through scripting the

MLC sets the repeat mode to on in response to a specifi c button press, and it sets the repeat mode to 0 when the button
is released or input is no longer selected.
