7.4 MENU MODE
Menu Mode commands allow virtually the same
functionality as programming commands. Unlike
the programming commands in the previous
sections, menu commands prompt the user to
select from a list of available options. The system
then responds based upon selections made by the
user.
The menu-driven commands are only available with
MultiTasker systems that have the following front
panel firmware:
690-0122-015 = Version 015 or later.
690-0123-004 = Version 004 or later.
690-0124-018 = Version 018 or later.
Send the command [VER] and the system will
respond with feedback that includes the following:
690-0122-015 690-0123-004 690-0124-018
Check the last three digits against the numbers
above to determine if Menu Mode is available.

7.4.2 USING MENU MODE
TIP: It is best to disable the automatic
feedback feature, [STA0]. The automatic
feature will display after each setting
change making the menus difficult to read.
1. In order to enter Menu Mode, the system
needs to be connected to a computer
running RS-232 control software.
2. In the Terminal Window, press ENTER on
the keyboard.
3. The system interrogates all cards and
returns a list of cards and their ID numbers.
Example: 08: MT115-110
NOTE: Only cards supporting the menu
feature will be displayed.
4. Enter the 2-digit ID and a menu for the card
will be displayed. In the example above,
enter “08” for the MT115-110.
WARNING: Do NOT enter any characters
except those relating to the desired menu.
Press ENTER after “08” and the original
prompt will be displayed.
5. The system will prompt for selections
specific to the selected card.
6. Read each menu carefully, and continue
selecting keys as prompted for further
functions. (Example prompt: "Key= ")
