Gilderfluke&Co 'Smart' Brick Animation Control System - Manual (Page 76)

InfraRed Transmitter and Receiver. The IR Remote is typi-
cally used to trigger an animation or sound system
mounted on a vehicle, turntable, or other installation
where wires can’t be used. All serial port commands ex-
cept for ‘m’ (enter setup mode) are disabled when this
toggle is ON.
The connections to the IR Remote Receiver are as fol-
lows (view is facing end of cable with latch up):
NAME COLOR SIGNAL FUNCTION
LEFT GROUND WHITE SIGNAL GROUND
n/c BLACK no connection
n/c RED no connection
- TxD GREEN - DATA IN to Rack Smart Brick Brain
+ TxD YELLOW + DATA IN to Rack Smart Brick Brain
RIGHT GROUND BLUE SIGNAL GROUND
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.
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
