Each frame counter pin you subtracted is then wired to one of the stop pins. Configured in
this way, the MICRO MACs will run from the beginning to the 960th frame and then stop. (It will
stop on the 960th frame).
If you used a calculator to convert the frame number into binary address then a Т1У indicates
a connection and a Т0У does not. The right hand most digit stands for the Т1У address counter pin,
the 2nd from the right indicates the Т2У pin, the 3rd indicates the Т4У pin and so on, doubling the
number associated with the pin each digit you move toward the left.
This example happens to use four of the five stop inputs. To get to the exact frame number
might take more than the five available inputs. In this case, use the five most significant pins you
found. If this doesnÕt get you close enough, then you should consider stopping from a show data
bit.
When using this (frame counter) method of stopping or resetting a MICRO MACs, the show
must start each time at the beginning. This can be assured by configuring the start and reset both
on the same (J-8) input.
