Sending a command to all connected units
When sending commands to all connected units, only commands for changing
settings are allowed. To address a command to all units, set all units to remote
mode by sending the RMT1FF command. Note that a VM-83 that has received
the RMT1FF command will not output a response to any command.
1. Verify that all connected VM-83 units are set to local mode.
2. Send the RMT1FF<CR ><LF> command to set all connected VM-83
units to remote mode (linked condition).
3. Control the VM-83 units by sending setting commands.
4. To terminate the linked condition, send the RMT0FF<CR><LF> com-
mand.
Note
A VM-83 that has received the RMT1FF<CR><LF>
command will switch to remote mode, regardless of
the ID number. When the parameter FF was used,
the VM-83 will not output a response to received
commands.
