This Driver is not available in ICM-4020 Firmware (under development). Introduction: The Alcorn McBride Digital Binloop is a multi-'reproducer', multi-segment audio and video player, from source material stored on its removable hard drives and flash drives. It can play from any reproducer on command or in synchronism with received SMPTE.
6(0 8VHU 0DQXDO • tk-sk is the reproducer number (1-based) and socket ('mode') • sn is the sound number or video number on the reproducer. generates F0 7F id 02 7F 01 T1 T0 00 SK 00 S2 S1 S0 F7 for type 1 or F0 7F id 02 7F 03 T1 T0 00 SK 00 S2 S1 S0 F7 for type 2 • id is either 7F (if ua is 127) or ua + 8 (since ua is 1-based). • T1/T0 is a two ascii-digit sequence giving tk, i.e, if tk is 20, this short string is "20". • SK is an ascii-digit giving the value of sk, i.e., 1 -> "1".
6(0 8VHU 0DQXDO Note: that the device type has changed to permit the driver to send the synchronized play command rather than the unsychronized play command. For STOP commands, either type 1 or type 2 may be used. The SMPTE code generator statements look like: PLAY @R0,5,0 DEVICE 127-3 ; STOP @R0,5,0 DEVICE 127-3 ; RESET @R0,5,0 DEVICE 127-3 ; If there are really multiple devices multi-dropped on the MSC output, replacing 127 with the unit ID will provide the correct messaging.
