Gilderfluke&Co BR-SmartMedia - Manual (Page 38)

addressed to the Brain.
Up to two hundred fifty-five different animated shows can be
stored on a single BR-SmartMedia. These commands can be used
to select an individual show on the selected BR-SmartMedia(s).
Individual shows can be requested with a range of 01 to FFH.
Once a show is selected, it will be played on the next serial port
START or LOOP command.
If a show selection has been made inadvertently, it can be
cleared by sending a request for show number 00.
Show Pause Commands:
“<” (card address) (sequencer #) Pause Show:
“>” (card address) (sequencer #) Continue Show:
These commands are available ONLY on BR-SmartMedia
cards which are being operated as ‘Dumb’ Bricks or in MultiShow
mode. Appending the sequencer number (‘A’ through ‘H’) to the
command is only needed for cards in MultiShow mode. If your
system has a 'Smart' Brick Brain, then these commands should be
addressed to the Brain.
Any show can be paused at any point during its playback. The
outputs are frozen at the ‘levels they were at the instant the
PAUSE command is received.
The CONTINUE command will resume any show playing which
has previously been PAUSED.
“sA5A5” (card address) AutoDownload:
This is the format of the file that the BR-SmartMedia will re-
ceive and load into its SmartMedia Flash Card.
An AutoDownload file is a binary file. Any AutoDownload file
that has previously been saved can be sent to a BR-SmartMedia
by selecting the ‘send binary file’ on your modem program and
selecting the AutoDownload for sending. You must be sure that
the modem program has not been set to ‘gobble’ any special
characters (carriage returns, line feeds, etc.).
The Hyper Terminal program that comes with Windows ‘95 and
‘98 will not work for sending AutoDownloads. For some strange
reason it has been written to randomly change any binary value
that is larger than one hundred twenty-seven.
