same is true for Windows PC or Android App software，The parameters stored in the turntable are not the
parameters seen on the Windows PC or Android App interface.
The infrared remote controller can not modify the pause time, if you need to modify, through the Windows
PC or Android App software.
The automatic shutter, rotation angle, pause time, repeat times could only be set in intermittent rotation
mode, and invalid in continuous rotation mode.
MTxxxRUWSand above models，If the automatic shutter parameter is on, the first shutter is paused and
rotated after intermittent rotation.

7 Other Instructions
After electricity, the test program of the turntable will run automatically(it usually takes 3-9 seconds).If the
buzzer keep beeping or make intermittent sounds continuously, the test failed then, since the ringing of
buzzer should be three times. Then, you had better plug it again.
While using the controller (infrared remote control, mobile phone App, Windows PC) to control the
turntable, the turntable buzzer will make corresponding tweets, prompting the user to receive control
command:
1) If the turntable receives the button command correctly, the buzzer will beep 1 or 2 times based on the
state of the keys.
2) If the buzzer does not beep after the button, the button information is not received correctly, or the
turntable does not support that function.
3) Buzzer of MTxxxxSL and other more professional mode will beep for two times, before the automatic
shutter signal is sent out.

8 Secondary Development Guide
All turntables which contain letter “U”, “W”or “C”in their mode name support secondary development. Users
could control the turntable with our software or develop their own software based on our CT commands.
Neither the library function nor the static or dynamic link library is required. So there is no need for DLL and
related code files. It ensures that any platform, any development language can use the CT command to control
the turntable through the interface, as long as the turntable supports the corresponding interface.
Note: the only difference among USB interface turntable, serial port turntable and WIFI turntable is connection
mode, the CT command is the same.
8.1 How to use the CT command for secondary development
Only 2 steps needed to control the turntable. Below is an example of how to use the secondary development
function in the form of pseudo code.
Step I: The developer creates a socket instance in its own programming environment and connects the turntable.
For example:
For example: socket *mysocket ;
mysocket = new Socket();
mysocket->connectHost(192.168.181.181,8181);
step II: When the turntable is required to be controlled, the CT command line string is sent using
the transmission function of the socket.
Pseudo code examples:
Note: in the above example, "CT+TRUNSINGLE (1,10);" . "Send ()" is string transfer function of Socket class. CT
command begins with CT, with ";" at the end. (all text is the English characters). Return command from turntable
begins with "CR", with ";" at the end. (all text is the English characters).
You can also use the third party telnet tool to send these CT commands to control the turntable, such as
secureCRT, putty, etc..

8.2 Secondary development of command detailed
Secondary development commands include:
·CT command: the terminal is sent to the terminal equipment, and equipment orders (with respect to the
terminal is sent, T or Transmit).
·Cr report: equipment - > terminal, equipment receives the terminal command to equipment to the terminal
sends back to report information (with respect to the terminal is received, i.e. r receive). This feature can be
turned on or off by "CT+ACK (onOff);" command.
·Event: equipment - > terminal equipment to complete a certain action, sent to the terminal event information.
This feature can be turned on or off by "CT+EVENT (onOff);" command.

·Heartbeat mechanism: terminal equipment for the < - > communication link between the terminal equipment
and detection. Through the device and the terminal mutual communication link detection (heartbeat) bytes,
to inform the other side of the connection status. This feature can be turned on or off by "CT+HEARTBEAT
(onOff);" command.
·Error code: terminal equipment - > when the device receives an error command, to inform the terminal error
code form.
Below through a few examples of the Secondary development of the command usage:
Example 1: terminal to send a legitimate command to the device, the terminal receives the command and
execution.
//This case involves the CT command, CR report, EVENT event.
·To send "CT+TRUNSINGLE - terminal equipment (0,30); command;
·The equipment after receipt of order to report back to the "CR+OK;" to the terminal, and execute the
command, which left (clockwise) 30.
·The equipment executed action turn left (30 degrees), to the terminal sends EVENT event
"CR+EVENT=TB_END end;" and inform the terminal device performs an action completed.
Example 2: terminal to send an illegal command to the device, the terminal receives the command to return the
error code.
// this case involves the CT command error code.
·To send "CT+TRUNSINGLE - terminal equipment (ABC, 30);" command, the first parameter (ABC number)
illegal;
·The equipment after receiving the command, the feedback error code "CR+ERR=71;", namely first CT
commands (=71-70) parameters of non numeric error.
Example 3: device and terminal heartbeat mechanism test.
/ / this case involves the heartbeat mechanism.
·terminal and the device is connected properly and equipment intervals 1s to terminal sends a byte of #,
terminal also intervals 1s sent to the device a a # bytes.
·The terminal stop sending "#" bytes.
·Equipment for some time (3S) did not receive "#" a byte, and did not receive the order a CT, then enter the
heart lost state, then every interval 1s send string ### inform terminal heartbeat lost.
·Every 1s to re - terminal equipment sends a "#" byte.
·Equipment received "#" byte, or received a CT command and exit heartbeat lost state and subsequent device
every interval 1s to terminal sends a # bytes.
Be careful：
·Equipment received CT command equivalent to receive heartbeat byte "#", namely equipment for some
time (3S) not received "#" bytes, and did not receive the order a CT, then enter the heart lost; equipment
received "#" a byte, or received a CT command, out of the heart lost state.
·Terminal can also through similar mechanisms, such as a period of time (3S) did not receive "#" bytes of
