it's very likely if you're not specifically inside the reader they aren't (temporarily) updated. so if you're doing some sort of looping, anything outside the reader would see those MCI codes reverted to what they were before you started. (for example a menu with a huge list of separate scans of each base would show !MN as the user's current one between every MN action, because only INSIDE the MN action would !MN be temporarily adjusted)
