Read leds, Br-ana – Gilderfluke&Co BR-ANA Analog Output Smart/Dumb Brick User Manual

This LED turns on when the Br-ANA is writing to the Sd card. The Sd

card, or power to the Br-ANA should not be removed if this LED is lit.

During firmware updates, the Read LED and Busy LED flash back and

forth. The first stage is comparing the BRANA400.FRM file on the Sd card. It
then flashes a little slower as it reads the BRANA400.FRM file in from the Sd
card. It then flashes back and forth much more quickly as it reprograms the
microcontroller in the Br-ANA. Under no circumstances remove power from

the Br-ANA while firmware is being up-
dated. A partial firmware
update may ʻbrickʼ the Br-
ANA, and then it will need
to be returned to the fac-
tory for reprogramming.

! This LED turns on when
the Br-ANA is reading data
from the Sd card. If you
have an AutoDownload file
stored on the Sd card, this
LED will be lit even when
no shows are running. This
is because there are al-
ways updates being made
on the outputs, even when
the shows are stopped.

! During firmware updates,
the Read LED and Busy
LED flash back and forth.
