MULTITASKER ™ 400 - 0197 - 005 10 10 Example: If Input 1 is connected to all outputs, but only 1 through 4 are on, the feedback after sending the command [C4S], for slot 4, would be similar to the f.
MULTITASKER ™ 400 - 0197 - 005 11 11 The matrix I/O connections are also read left to right representing outputs 1-8 and the input to which each is connected. The first two digits show the input num ber to which Output 1 is connected. The third and forth digits are for Output 2 and so on.
MULTITASKER ™ 400 - 0197 - 005 12 12 PATH OPERATION The path for outputs on the same or multiple cards may be preloaded. This will set the path for the output, but it is not active until the switch command, [SW ], is executed. Commands en ding in ‘P’ are not executed immediately.
