on multiple cards or the same card can be
loaded.

= card ID (n = slot # from 1 to max slots)

commands.

13. [SIG] – MT104-100 Only

The Signal Present command tests for the
presence of a signal. After sending the
command, the feedback will be either "1"
signifying a signal is present, or a "0" indicating
no signal was detected.

Command Format: [SIGCnUi]

Cn = Card ID (n = slot # from 1 to max slots)

Ui

Example:

To check for the presence of an input signal on
card 4, send the command [SIGC4] and verify
feedback of "1" or "0".
