- Rack Smart Brick Brain Configuration -

To configure the system you first need to connect the system

just as you do for any serial communications (see the 'Smart Brick
System Commands' section of the manual). The configuration
mode is entered by the command:

“m” (5AA5) (track#)

Typically, the Smart Brick Brain is configured to respond when

addressed as track ‘00’, and so the string you send the Smart
Brick Brain is ‘m5AA500’. The ‘5AA5’ part of the string acts like a
combination lock to keep random noise on the serial input lines
from accidentally entering the configuration mode.

This command brings up the following menu from the Smart

Brick Brain which was addressed. (In this case this shows the con-
figuration after the defaults are reloaded.)
