52. {PING}
This command displays “OK”, but not until after
is has been processed through the incoming
memory buffer. After downloading a program file
to the MultiTasker, this command can be used
to indicate when the MultiTasker has finished
writing everything to memory. This is only
necessary if the auto-feedback, “[ ]”, is disabled
using the [DFB] command.
Command Format: {PING}
Example:
The command {PING} instructs the MultiTasker
to display “OK.”
53. {SUB}
This command executes a subroutine through
RS-232 control.
Command Format: {SUBn}
n = Sub ID (n = # from 1 to 180)
Example:
The command {SUB10} executes the functions
stored in SUB10.
54. {CLRS}
This command clears one or all subroutines.
Command Format: {CLRSn}
n = Sub ID (n = # from 1 to 180, * for all)
Example:
Clear SUB80 by sending the command
{CLRS80}.
NOTE: The system will display a warning when
the {CLRS*} command begins. This will be
followed by periods indicating progress until the
final message is displayed as follows:
PLEASE WAIT 20 SECONDS....................
SUBROUTINES ARE CLEARED
55. {TEST}
This command performs a destructive test of the
memory buffer, keys, and LEDs. All subs will be
erased during this test.
Command Format: {TEST}
Example:
The command {TEST} tests the front panel and
will display a notification when started, followed
by a progress indicator, and finally a completion
notice as follows:
1) MEMORY BUFFER TEST: (TIME=90 SECONDS)
0%........25%.........50%.........75%........100%
BUFFER TEST: PASSED
After the results are displayed, the system will
prompt the user for the KEY/LED test:
2) KEY-LED TEST: PRESS A KEY TO TURN ON
ITS LED – TO EXIT: SEND RES OR TURN OFF
THE UNIT
Test each key by pressing it once. As each key
is pressed, its LED should turn ON and the
previous LED should turn OFF. If any of the
keys or LEDs do not behave as just described,
the key or its LED is bad. To exit this test, turn
the system off, and then back on again.
56. {WAIT}
This command instructs the controller to delay
or pause before the next command is executed.
Command Format: {WAITn}
n = delay time (1=100ms, 2=200ms…)
Example:
Sent the command {WAIT2} to cause a delay of
200ms in the controller.
