PC•MACsʼ editing tools to perfect the sequences you have programmed in RealTime.
When you have all of your shows completed, you can download them to a Br-
miniBrick8 through the standard RS-232 serial port on your PC. You can then make
additional changes and download again and again until your show is perfect. The PC
can then go away. The Br-miniBrick8 will run by itself.
Features of the Br-miniBrick8 include:
•
Automatic ʻprogram in placeʼ download through the standard serial port on your
PC. It takes about twenty seconds to download a fifteen minute show.
•
Digital outputs can be programmed without any computer using the three but-
tons on the front of the Br-miniBrick8.
•
Eight digital outputs rated for a continuous load of 150 ma., or 500 ma. peak.
This is enough to drive small solenoid valves, relays, LEDs and similar loads.
LEDs show all output activity. If more than eight outputs are needed, additional
Br-miniBrick8s can be stacked to give you as many outputs as you need.
•
Two outputs for controlling airplane-style ServoMotors. Endpoints are adjust-
able through the serial port. This allows up to 180º rotation on a standard Ser-
voMotor.
•
Input for standard DMX-512 data from light boards, Br-SmartMedia, MACs-
USB, Sd-50s, or any other source of standard DMX-512. DMX-512 is the stan-
dard protocol used for controlling all theatrical lighting equipment.
•
ʻRecordʼ, ʻgoʼ and ʻdataʼ buttons for programming digital data in RealTime with-
out any computer at all.
•
Each Br-miniBrick8 comes with a minimum of sixty-four KBytes of nonvolatile
memory. This gives a single channel show capacity of over thirty-six minutes at
thirty Frames Per Second! With eight digitals and one servo, you get more than
eighteen minutesʼ capacity. With eight digitals and both servos, you get about
twelve minutes of capacity at 30 Frames Per Second.
•
Once downloaded, show data is retained for approximately forty years, with or
without power applied.
•
You can rewrite the memory approximately fifty thousand times.
•
Two non-polarized optoisolated inputs to synchronize Br-miniBrick8s with
pushbuttons or other real-time events.
•
Multiple Br-miniBrick8s can be triggered simultaneously or sequentially.
•
Each Br-miniBrick8 input can be set to start, stop, pause, continue, or directly
select a specific show. LEDs show all input activity.
•
Two hundred fifty-five shows can be loaded onto a Br-miniBrick8 at one time
when using the PC•MACs software.
•
Shows can be accessed sequentially or directly using the two optoisolated in-
puts. Supports foreground/background shows.
•
The ʻnextʼ show can be set for the end of any show, allowing you to loop a sin-
gle show or build ʻchainsʼ of shows.
