Proc Logistic Contrasts with Interaction

I'm having difficulty figuring out the appropriate contrasts including an interaction term. In my model:

Code:

proc logistic data=data;
class var1 var2;
y = var1 var2 var1*var2 / link=glogit;

I would like to get a contrast equivalent to testing whether beta for var2 is not equal to 0, for each level of var1. var1 is binary and var2 has 4 levels, so the design variables in SAS are:

Code:

class    value  Design Variables
var1      1          1
            2        -1

var2      0          1  0  0
            1          0  1  0
            2          0  0  1
            4          -1 -1 -1

I can calculate the overall contrast for the beta of var2 not equal to 0:

Code:

contrast 'beta var2 ne 0' var2 0  1  1,
                          var2 0  0  1,
                          var2 1  1  0,
                          var2 1 -1  0,
                          var2 1  0 -1,
                          var2 0  1 -1;

And I think I correctly calculated the design variables for each level of the interaction:

Code:

class            value  Design Variables
var1*var2        0        1  0  0  0
var1*var2        1        0  1  0  0
var1*var2        2        0  0  1  0
var1*var2        4        0  0  0  1
var1*var2        8      -1 -1 -1 -1

But I'm not really sure how to get the correct contrast statement for testing whether the beta coefficient of var2 is not equal to 0, for each level of var1.

I tried for var1=1, but I don't think the contrast is correct:
Code:

contrast 'beta var2 ne 0, var1=1'        var1*var2 -1  0  0 1,
                                                var1*var2  0 -1  0 1,
                                                var1*var2  0  0 -1 1,
                                                var1*var2 -1  0  1 0,
                                                var1*var2  0 -1  1 0,
                                                var1*var2 -1  1  0 0;
