Gilderfluke&Co 'Smart' Brick Animation Control System - Manual (Page 73)

configuration will stop any LaserDisk (or DVD) clocked show which
is currently running, and keep any new ones from being started.
The configuration of the Rack Smart Brick Brain can be locked
at any time by simply moving the ‘write protect’ switch to the ‘pro-
tected’ position. The menu will warn you that changes will have
no affect when the EEprom memory is protected.
“a” Enter Track Number:
This command is used to tell the Smart Brick Brain
which addresses it should respond to from the serial
commands. No two Smart Brick Brains, Smart Bricks or
Digital Audio Repeater Cards on the same serial network
can have the same address assigned to them. When
loaded with the default configuration, the address as-
signed to a card is 00. If more than one Smart Brick
Brain, Smart Brick or Digital Audio Repeater card is used
in the system, they should be plugged in one at a time
to have their addresses changed. Once changed,
each card can stay on line.
The Rack Smart Brick Brain will show the current ad-
dress, baud rate and parity on its display when it first
boots up. 9600 Baud (the default) displays as a number
‘8’, for consistency with earlier Smart Brick Brains.
“b” Baud Rate:
All cards in the system must be set to the same baud
rate. The default speed is 9600 baud. This command
doesn't take effect until you enter the eXit command.
The serial port on each Smart Brick Brain can support
any of the following baud rates:
1) 300
2) 600
3) 1200
4) 2400
