Digital Output Show Control System
The Br-miniBrick4 is a complete, stand-alone Show Control System. It features
Four Digital (on/off) outputs and one trigger input. Once programmed, the
Br-miniBrick4 runs from onboard nonvolatile memory. No PC is needed. All you need
to add is a 9-24 VDC power supply, whatever you want to control, and (optionally), a
switch closure to tell it to start.
The Br-miniBrick4 is normally programmed using the buttons on its top. You also
have the option of programming a miniBrick4 using our free PC•MACs Show Control
software. Once your show is 'drawn' or recorded 'live' using the PC•MACs software, it
is sent to the Br-miniBrick4 through a
Br-miniBrick4 can then be disconnected from the PC and it will run all by itself.
