3) 'BLUE' INPUT
4) 'PB' INPUT
This will probably happen only on power-up.
The commands have the following effects:
Pause/Return to Zero (RTZ):
a) If running an Internally, Smpte or LaserDisk (or
DVD) clocked show: This command causes the
currently running show to be paused at the current
frame. If the show is LaserDisk (or DVD) clocked, the
string ‘E’ will be sent when the show is paused. This
string is typically configured to pause the LaserDisk
(or DVD). A pause will be cleared if a new show is
started, or the Continue command is used.
b) If running an Externally clocked show: When run-
ning an internally clocked show, this command
causes the frame counters to be reset back to the
start of the show. During countdowns, this com-
mand causes a new countdown delay to be start-
ed based on the current thumbwheel switch set-
tings.
Continue/Increment:
a) If running an Internally, Smpte or LaserDisk (or
DVD) clocked show: This command clears a
pause in the currently running show which was set
by the Pause command. If a show has been
paused, then the show will continue from the cur-
rent frame. If the show is LaserDisk (or DVD) clocked,
then string ‘F’ will be sent when the show is contin-
ued. This string is typically configured to cause the
LaserDisk (or DVD) to start playing from the current
frame. If this command is issued and the show has
not been paused, it will have no effect.
