This clears the ‘looping’ flag, so the currently running show (if any) will stop at the end and wait for the next start
command. Do NOT use this command for controlling the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 except during testing. Use the
equivalent Serial Port command instead.

Set Time
This command is only available if the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 is not listening to the time and
location signals received from a GPS receiver. If he GPS is active, it will display the time from
the GPS and set the time very accurately every minute, on the half minute.
This command is used to set the Real Time Clock (RTC) manually. It MUST be used at least once to ‘roughly’
set the date and time, before the external ‘Atomic’ Clock can take over.
i) !
Show Info
This command is available ONLY if ShowFiles have been loaded on the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/
40.
This displays the vitals of the shows which have been downloaded to the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40:

Loop a Show
This command is available ONLY if ShowFiles have been loaded on the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/
40.
This command is used to request and play a specific show with the ‘looping’ flag set. If the currently running
show (if any) is NOT steppable, The Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 will confirm with you that you do indeed want to start an-
other show. At the end of the show (if it has been configured to do so), the next show will play. This will continue
until the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 is told to ‘Stop’, ‘Stop at end’ or a different show with is started with a ‘start’ command.
Do NOT use this command for controlling the Sd-50/8 or Sd-50/40 except during testing. Use the equivalent Serial
Port command instead.
