Owner's manual

edge actions are available to you. This allows you to to
do things like start a show on a closing edge and then
stop it on the opening edge of the same input. This
would make it a ‘run while’ input.
A closing edge on the 1/4 J6 Port is considered to be
any of the eight inputs closing if the DIRECT SELECT op-
tion is 'on', or any change in the input (except going to
all inputs open) if the DIRECT SELECT option is off. A
opening edge on the 1/4 J6 Port is when all eight of the
inputs go to an open condition.
The 1/4 J-6 input can be selected on the Rack Smart
Brick Card to use an external power supply or the internal
power supply. Connections for these are shown in the
first section of this manual.
If you want the Smart Brick System to start playing
shows as soon as it is powered up, you can set a ‘START’
or ‘START LOOPING’ command on the opening edge of
any of the inputs. On power-up, the Smart Brick Brain will
check all of the inputs and find that the one you are
using has just opened. It will then act upon any com-
mands you have set for this edge. This would normally
be a ‘START’ command if you only want the Smart Brick
System to play a single show, or a ‘START LOOPING’ com-
mand if you want it to continue playing shows until it is
told to stop. We normally use the ‘PB opening’ edge to
start shows on power-up (you can use any of the ‘openi-
ng’ edges) and then put in a ‘STOP’ or ‘STOP AT END’
command on the ‘PB closing’ command so that we can
stop the shows once they have started.
If multiple inputs to the system arrive simultaneously,
they have the following priorities:
1) '1/4 J6 Port“ INPUTS
2) 'GREEN' input
