To disable outputs 1 and 2 of card 6 and
outputs 3 and 4 of card 7 simultaneously, use
the following commands:
[OFF12C6U3P]
[OFF34C7U3P]
[SW]
If "F" is included use the [OFFmCnUiPF]
command or the [OFFmCnUiFP]
command.
[OFF…..F]: feedback
After processing a command, an OK ER will be
returned as feedback if "F" is included at the
end of a command string.
Example:
[OFF1C2U3F]: if path is not set
[OFF1C2U3PF]: if path is set
7. […S] – Save
This command will save the configuration
command being sent in memory. When
sending the command [ON1C4S], after reset or
power up, output 1 on C4 will be enabled.
8. […F] – Feedback
After processing a command, an OK or ER will
be returned as feedback if "F" is included at the
end of a command string.
9. […P] – Path
This command will set the path for the output,
but it is not active until the switch command,
[SW], is executed. Commands ending in "P" are
not executed immediately. The path for outputs
on multiple cards or the same card can be
loaded. See examples in ON and OFF
commands.
10. [SW] – Switch
The switch command immediately connects
inputs and outputs, which were previously set
with the PATH command on this card and all
other cards in the MT100-100.
