Gilderfluke&Co Mp3-50 Audio & Show Controllers - Manual (Page 14)

1) Mp3 Heart: (Mp3-50, Mp3-50/8, Mp3-50/40) The Mp3 ‘heartbeat’
will always flash so that you can see that the audio playback half
of the Mp3-50, Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40 is alive. If this LED does-
n’t flash at least twice per second, you should power down the
Mp3-50, Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40 and check the power supply
and connections to the Mp3-50, Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40.
2) Mp3 Run: (Mp3-50, Mp3-50/8, Mp3-50/40) This LED will light to
show that the Mp3 Player is currently playing back an audio file.
3) Right: (Mp3-50, Mp3-50/8, Mp3-50/40) This LED flickers to give
you a rough approximation of the audio being played out of the
right side of the audio player. It is upstream of the volume pro-
cessing done on the Mp3-50, and will not dim to reflect changes
in volume level.
4) Left: (Mp3-50, Mp3-50/8, Mp3-50/40) This LED flickers to give you
a rough approximation of the audio being played out of the left
side of the audio player. It is upstream of the volume processing
done on the Mp3-50, and will not dim to reflect changes in vol-
ume level.
5) Show Control Heart: (Mp3-50/8, Mp3-50/40) The Show Control
‘heartbeat’ will always flash so that you can see that the Show
Control half of the Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40 is alive. If this LED
doesn’t flash at least twice per second, you should power down
the Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40 and check the power supply and
connections to the Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40. During flash memo-
ry downloads, this LED will flash alternately with the
DMX/MIDI/Serial LED at twice the normal heartbeat rate.
6) Run: (Mp3-50/8, Mp3-50/40) This LED will light to show that the
Show Control half of the Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40 is currently run-
ning a preprogrammed show. This LED will also flash at half of the
frame rate (usually 15 Hz) when the Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40 is re-
ceiving RealTime update data either through the DMX-512 or seri-
al ports.
7) DMX/MIDI/Serial: (Mp3-50/8, Mp3-50/40) This LED will light to
show that the Mp3-50/8 or Mp3-50/40 is receiving RealTime Up-
date data through the DMX-512, MIDI or serial ports. If the Mp3-
50/8 or Mp3-50/40 is receiving show starts from MIDI input, then
this led will flash for about 1/10th of a second each time a ‘start’
happens. During flash memory downloads, this LED will flash alter-
nately with the Show Control Heart LED at twice the normal heart-
beat rate.
