When in this mode the ‘EARLY STARTS’ should be set to ‘IGNORE’ on all of your shows. Any binary
show number received by the serial port for more than ten times will trigger that show. Typically the trans-
mitters are placed along the path of the vehicle’s travel to trigger the appropriate animation and audio se-
quences at the appropriate times.
6) Brick Address
This sets the serial address which will be used to access the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 through the serial port. Al-
though it is often set to the same addresses the First Animation Channel, it can be set to any value form 0 to 255. If
more than on Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 is on the same serial port, they must all have unique addresses. When access-
ing the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 through GilderTerm, this is the value you enter for the ‘Card Address’.
7) Repeater MPU Control Channel
This sets the address of the data which will be sent from the Show Control side of the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 to
the ‘virtual’ port which is used to control the .Mp3/.wav player. Valid address ranges are from 0-511 if ‘DMX
Checksums’ are ON. Addresses from 1-512 can be used if ‘DMX Checksums’ are OFF.
8) First Animation Channel
This sets the address of the data which will be sent out the Show Control outputs. Valid address ranges are
from 0-511 if ‘DMX Checksums’ are ON. Addresses from 1-512 can be used if ‘DMX Checksums’ are OFF.
On a Sd-50/8, the channel entered will be sent out the ‘
’ port on the back of the unit.
On a Sd-50/40, the address entered will be sent out through channel ‘0’ of the ‘
’ connector. The next four
consecutive channels will be sent out through the remaining ‘
’ output
9) Flash Setup
