G-10 Glossary Studio Color LCD Controller
RAM Card
Another name for a PC Card (nee PCMCIA, Personal
Computer Memory Card International Association). The
Studio Color LCD controller uses a Type 1, 256KB SRAM
PC Card. The RAM card provides you with the means to
backup or store the controller’s memory in a removable
device. You can then restore the controller’s memory to the
same or other controllers.
See also “PCMCIA”.
Remote Enable
The controller’s Remote Enable connector that allows you to
remotely enable and disable the controller as described
below:
• Sending a voltage of 0 V DC disables the controller (all
fixtures go dark, all wheels stop moving, and all in-
progress moves finish immediately).
• Sending a voltage b5 V to +16 V DC to returns
the controller to its previous state. If the controller was
previously in Standby (with the Standby LED ON), the
controller returns to Standby; if the controller was not
previously in Standby, the controller resumes operation.
