the animation at these ‘seams’ so that there will be no
jumps when the other shows start and end.
If set to ‘play show 255/FF and start delay timer’ and
‘looping’ shows, then this sets up a special mode where
the Rack Smart Brick Brain can actually play a string of
shows while it is doing a countdown delay. If the delay
set on the rotary switch on the front of the Smart Brick
Brain is longer than zero length, then show 255 (FFh) will
be started immediately at the end of the show. At the
end of the countdown, the show in the ‘next show’ will be
played, unless the end of the delay has been set to call
up a different show.
Any show between 240 and 255 (0F0h and 0FFh)
can be played during the background shows. If any re-
quest comes in for another show, shows between 240
and 255 (0F0h and 0FFh) won’t be forced as a return
show if the requested show ends with a ‘whatever is next’
00.
“f” ‘Next’ Show:
This command is used to select which show will be
played next if there were no other higher priority show re-
quests made. Valid entries are from 0 to 255 (00 to FFh).
One through two hundred fifty-five select specific shows
and any show number can be used. If the current show
requests itself, then it will loop until a different show is re-
quested.
Entering a NEXT SHOW value of 00 is how you tell the
Smart Brick Brain that you want it to drop back into the
sequence of shows it had been playing before the last
specific show request had been received. As an exam-
