15
Command Format: [RAMP=xCnUi]
x = Rate in Seconds
4 = 0.25 seconds/step
6 = 0.38 seconds /step
8 = 0.50 seconds /step
10 = 0.63 seconds /step
12 = 0.75 seconds /step
14 = 0.88 seconds /step
16 = 1.00 seconds /step
18 = 1.13 seconds /step
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Ui
= Unit ID (i = # from 0 to 9)
Example:
There is an MT109-102 in slot #5. Send the
command [RAMP=16C5] to set the ramp rate to
16 seconds. After this is set, any ramping will
occur at a rate of 16 steps in 16 seconds, or 1
second per step. Confirm the setting by sending
the command [RAMPC5] and receiving the
feedback:
RAMPTIME = 16 SECONDS
28. [TEST]
This command performs a test on the internal
memory. Upon completion, the system will
display the results. If there are no problems, the
system will display the following:
MEMORY IS GOOD
Otherwise, failures will be indicated.
Command Format: [TESTCnUi]
Cn = Card ID (n = slot # from 1 to max slots)
Ui = Unit ID (i = # from 0 to 9)
Example:
There is an MT109-102 in slot #10. In order to
test the internal memory, send the command
[TESTC10].
29. [FBD]
This command turns feedback delay on or off. It
is necessary when installing some newer cards
in older systems. If the system does not receive
all of the feedback from the card, the card may
be communicating too fast. This command will
slow down the card's communication rate.
Command Format: [FBDmCnUi]
m = Delay (0= no delay, 1= delay 100mS)
Cn = Card ID (n = # from 1 to max slots)
Ui = Unit ID (i = from 0 to 9)
Example:
The command [HELPC4] is sent to the card in
slot #4. Some of the HELP file is displayed on
the screen, but most is missing. Send the
command [FBD1C4] to slow down the rate at
which the card sends feedback to the system.
CARD ID COMMANDS
The default Card ID is the same as the card slot
number. The next several commands allow the
user to change the Card ID to a value other
than the slot number.
The ID commands work with all Multi-Tasker™
Front Panel systems. However, front panels
that have firmware releases prior to the
following will not be able to address Card ID's
greater than the number of slots in the system:
690-0122-019 = Version 019 or later.
690-0123-005 = Version 005 or later.
690-0124-019 = Version 019 or later.
NOTE: In MTSetup™, send the command
[VER] from the Terminal Window. The system
will respond with feedback similar to the
following:
[690-0122-015 690-0123-005 690-0124-019]
Check the last three digits against the numbers
above to determine if the Card ID commands
can address all 99 Card ID's.
