Gilderfluke&Co 'Smart' Brick Animation Control System - Manual (Page 44)

Repeaters which respond to group number 5.
- Commands -
“a” (track#) Enter Interactive Echo Mode:
This command puts the one Smart Brick Brain ad-
dressed by the TRACK# into this mode while taking all
other Smart Brick Brains out of this mode. This is a special
mode which lets you play with the command structure
of the Smart Brick System and get an echo of all com-
mands in plain English. This form of echo should normal-
ly be used only while manually manipulating the system
as it can take a relatively long time to echo the 20 to thir-
ty ASCII characters most commands will return when in
this mode. During this response time, no additional com-
mands should be given.
When in this mode, all commands are echoed by
the one Smart Brick Brain which was addressed by the
TRACK# used when this mode was entered. This means
that any command will be echoed, even if the com-
mand is being sent to a nonexistent Smart Brick Brain.
EXAMPLE: to put Smart Brick Brain 00 into SETUP ECHO
mode:
a 0 0
TRACK 00 Setup Mode Selected
EXAMPLE: a 'START GLOBAL' command will echo:
'GLOBAL START'
“b” Exit Interactive Echo Mode:
This command takes all Smart Brick Brains in the system
out of SETUP ECHO MODE.
EXAMPLE: to take any and all Smart Brick Brains out of SETUP
