mounted on a vehicle, turntable, or other installation where
wires can’t be used. The DMX-512 /MIDI port is forced to
1200 baud and all serial port commands are disabled on
the DMX-512/MIDI port when this mode is ON. Any binary
show number received by the serial port for more than ten
times will trigger the requested show. Typically the transmit-
ters are placed along the path of the vehicle’s travel to trig-
ger the appropriate animation sequences at the appropri-
ate times.
The connections to the IR Remote Receiver are as fol-
lows (view is facing end of cable with latch up):

In addition to these connections, the IR Receiver re-
quires a 7 to 24 volt DC power supply connection. This is
normally attached to the two pads marked “+” and “-” on
the receiver. A jumper option allows you to bring this in
through the blue wire on the RJ-11 connector.
When in this mode the ‘Early Starts’ for all shows should
be set to ‘NOT Steppable’. If this is not done, then the same
show will be retriggered over and over again until the vehi-
cle moves out of the IR beam from the transmitter.
The IR Transmitter has an eight position dipswitch which
sets which show it selects. The lower nibble of the address
are set with the first four switches, and the upper nibble is
set with the last four. Valid show numbers are 01h through
