When the address and data lines are valid, the rising edge of the Strobe line will latch the

data into the addressed outputs.

Board Error LED: This LED will flash when:

Smart Analog Card just booted

An error is found in the DMX-512 data checksum

An error is found in the Smart Brick Network checksum

G) DMX-512 LED: This LED will be lit when the BS-ANA is receiving DMX-512 data.

H) Brick Heart: The heartbeat from the Smart Brick Brain is transmitted throughout the system

over the Smart Brick Network. The presence of a healthy heartbeat means that the data on
the Smart Brick Network is getting through cleanly. If it ever stutters or flashes erratically (or not
at all), then there is a problem with the Smart Brick Brain, the Smart Brick Network, or the BS-
ANA. As the DMX-512 takes precedence over the Smart Brick Network, this LED will go dark
whenever a DMX-512 signal is present.

Heartbeat: This LED Flashes continuously while the CPU is running. If it ever stops for more than
a fraction of a second, the 'Deadman' circuit in the BS-ANA will automatically reset the CPU.
While performing an Ease-In, the heart rate will double.

Address: Two HEXadecimal switches that are used to set the base address for the card. This
address is always used to access the BS-ANA through the serial port. It is also normally the first
DMX-512 address used (data at this DMX-512 address will be output through output #0). The
DMX-512 address can also be set through the configuration screen. This will override the DMX-
512 address set by these switches.
