INSTALLING YOUR MT104-100 6
Step 1. Slide the MT104-100/103 into an available
slot in the Multi-Tasker™ Enclosure in
order to connect to the bus. Make sure
that the MT104-100/103 card fits into
place. Secure the card to the
Multi-Tasker™ by tightening the retainer
screws located on the top and bottom of
the MT104-100/103 card.
Step 2. The LED on the card panel will turn red
indicating that the card is in full operation.
An LED that is blinking red indicates that
the card is experiencing a problem. If the
LED is blinking, see Troubleshooting
Guide in section 8. On the MT104-100, a
green LED indicates that a signal is
present.
Step 3. Connect a coaxial cable from the video
source to the input connector of the
MT104-100/103. Connect the output
connectors of the MT104-100/103 to the
display devices through a coaxial cable.
Step 4. Starting from the left, identify the slot
number where the MT104-100/103 card is
plugged into the Enclosure and note that
it is for RS-232 control.

7.1 RS-232 CONTROL
When used in the Multi-Tasker™ Enclosure, the
MT104-100/103 has many advanced remote
control capabilities, which are accessible through
standard RS-232 communication. The actual
controlling can be accomplished through a
computer control system or any other device
capable of sending RS-232 commands.
7.1.1 RS-232 INTERFACE
The RS-232 commands, for the
MT104-100/103, are in a simple ASCII character

command.
2. Use uppercase letters for all commands.
After processing a command, an OK or ER will
be returned as feedback if "F" is included at the
end of a command string.
Commands ending in "S" will be saved into
memory. Commands not ending in "S" will still
be executed but will not be restored when the
system is reset or powered OFF then ON.
