3 .0 GENERAL DISCRIPTION. MIDI LIGHTED-ROCKER CONTROL OARD (MLRT-) The MLRT- MIDI Lighted-Rocker Control board is an interface board between a control system such as Hauptwerk which sends and receives MIDI data and Classic Lighted Rocker Tab (LRT-A) boards with send and receive parallel and serial data. It can control up to Lighted Rocker Tabs. It generates a MIDI signal from the push-button switches to control an organ system, although it could be used to control almost anything via MIDI note-on/off (Patch) messages. Each LRT-A switch has two momentary positions On and Off and they send different messages on the same MIDI channel. The MLRT- also has a MIDI input that controls the lamps on the LRT-A thus giving foolproof indication that something happened. The Note-On messages and Note-Off messages received from the LRT-A's are sent on one MIDI channel, these would normally be MIDI Patch commands. MLRT- Installation Manual v..doc July 0, 00

4 . CLASSIC LIGHTED ROCKER TAS (LRT-A) Each of the LRT-A boards mounts up to tabs in one row divided up into two groups of eight, switches - (A) and - (), they can be butted into longer rows. These boards can also be cut down to a minimum of contiguous tabs if necessary. The tab switches are arranged in two groups of eight so that when each group is addressed in turn, all eight will appear simultaneously on the data bus. This common data bus return has only eight lines for all switches and all LRT-A boards in the system share this bus, being selected in turn. The sequential switch addressing uses wires for the On switches and another for the corresponding Off switches. The lamps corresponding to the tab switches are driven by on-board serial-to-parallel conversion in the LRT-As from serial data received from the MLRT-, using data returned from the controlled system as a MIDI signal on the same channel as the switches. The lamps use the same codes as the switches. A four-pin connector is used for the lamp serial data output from the MLRT- to the first LRT-A "C" where it passes on to all others but with the data cascaded from one LRT-A to the next.

5 .0 MOUNTING THE OARDS Mounting holes are provided on both the MLRT- and LRT-A for # screws. Holes for the screws should be pre-drilled to prevent wood from splitting.. MOUNTING THE MLRT- When mounting the MLRT-, short spacers should be used to space the board up from the mounting surface. The board should be mounted reasonably close to the first LRT-A board (at the left side of the organ console) so that the various connections can be easily made. It is not necessary to provide ventilation as the board consumes little power.. MOUNTING THE LRT-A Mounting the LRT-A boards should be well planned out in advance. If you are fitting the LRT-A's into pre-existing holes in the console they may simply be screwed into the back of the console, remember a board mounted on the far right side when viewed from behind the console will appear on the far left when viewed by the organist. If the necessary holes do not currently exist in the console you will need to cut some. Each rocker tab is 0." or. cm. Depending on the thickness of the wood, spacers between the board and the surface may be needed for aesthetics when viewed by an organist. Check this before you screw anything into place.

6 .0 WIRING There are many different ways that a series of LRT-A boards can be mounted on a console, each of which will result is slight differences in how they would be wired to the MLRT-. For the purposes of these instructions we will use the example shown below of a Pedal division with tabs, a Swell division with tabs and a Great division also with tabs. As mentioned above, the LRT-A boards have switches on them, divided up into groups (A&) of switches each. In our example we will use the same board cut in half for of the divisions; Group A for the Pedal and Group for the Great. While wiring your boards keep in mind that the label for each connector ie C or JP- will be beside pin of that connector.. POWER No power is necessary other than the console switched +V and this should also power the LRT-A boards. You can loop through from one board to another provided that there are not too many boards and the terminal block on the MLRT- has two pins for each rail voltage to help with this. If there are a lot of LRT-A boards, the total lamp current could be substantial if all lamps will be lit at the same time and each board would then be better wired directly to the supply to minimise voltage drops across terminals.

7 . GROUP / SWITCH DATA WIRING Wire the Switch Data Pins on the MLRT- (JP-) to the 'D' pins on the LRT-A. This is pin for pin wiring, so: MLRT- JP- Wire Colour LRT-A D rown (rn) Red Orange (Org) Yellow (Yel) Green (Grn) lue (lu) Violet (Vio) Grey (Gry) Through type connectors will work best for this so an individual wired can go from the MLRT- to each of the LRT-A boards.. ON AND OFF SWITCH WIRING ON Sense Switches on the MLRT- are wired into JP- and JP-, OFF Sense switches are wired into JP- and JP-, each pin (in conjunction with the Switch Data) monitors group of LRT tabs. A full LRT-A board with a total of tabs would use pins on the connector. The ON and OFF switches are wired into 'C' on the LRT-A's on pins -. Thus on the LRT- A's: PIN ON Sense Switches for group A PIN ON Sense Switches for group PIN OFF Sense Switches for Group A PIN OFF Sense Switches for Group MLRT- Installation Manual v..doc July 0, 00

9 In the example being used, the Pedal only has the A group of tabs, the Swell has the A & and the Great only has the group so it will be wired as follows: MLRT- LRT-A Comments Connector Colour oard # Connector JP- rn (Pedal) C- ON Tabs - (A) Red (Swell) C- ON Tabs - (A) Org C- ON Tabs - () Yel (Great) C- ON Tabs - () JP- Wht/rn (Pedal) C- OFF Tabs - (A) Wht/Red (Swell) C- OFF Tabs - (A) Wht/Org C- OFF Tabs - () Wht/Yel (Great) C- OFF Tabs - () NOTE: Even though the Swell does not have a full set of tabs, the software will assume a full byte, filling out tabs - which don't actually exist. The first tab on any LRT-A regardless if it is an A or will always be the start of a new byte (,,,, etc) MLRT- Installation Manual v..doc July 0, 00

10 . LAMP WIRING Lamps for the LRT tabs are wired from MLRT- JP- to LRT-A 'C' (along with ON/OFF's). The Lamps are serially driven, with a Strobe, Data, Clock and Ground. Wire the Strobe, Clock and Ground from one board to the next using connectors that can pass the wired through. The Data Out from the MLRT- only goes to the first LRT-A board. All other LRT-A boards are cascaded ('daisy-chained') by wiring their Data Out pin (C-) to the Data In pin (C-) of the next one. The final Data Out is not used. We recommend you change the wire colour each time you wire out from one board into the next board.

11 . MIDI CONNECTION Connect MIDI OUT on the MLRT- to the MIDI IN of the system being controlled using a standard -pin DIN MIDI cable. Similarly connect the MIDI OUT of the system being controlled to the MIDI IN of the MLRT-. The two MIDI THROUGH connectors have buffered duplicates of this signal if it needs to be passed on to other equipment. MLRT- Installation Manual v..doc July 0, 00

12 .0 SET-UP AND OPERATION. SET MIDI CHANNEL The first switches on the position DIP-Switch are used to set which channel number the MLRT- will send and receive data. Switch- is nearest to the MIDI connectors. The MLRT- is shipped with all switches off thus MIDI Channel is the default. Channel (inary) Channel Number Switch- Switch- Switch- 0 Off Off Off Off Off Off Off On Off Off On Off Off Off On On Off On Off Off Off On Off On Off On On Off Off On On On On Off Off Off 0 On Off Off On 0 On Off On Off On Off On On On On Off Off On On Off On On On On Off On On On On Switch- Switch- should be Off for Hauptwerk Version- (or earlier) and On for Version-. Version- sends back a confirming message from the MLRT- to say that the lamp has turned on. Version- does not. The remaining three switches do nothing at this time and are reserved for future use.

13 . LED'S There are LED's on the MLRT- to aid in trouble shooting LED 'Heartbeat' - GREEN = when flashing it indicates that the board is operating LED - LOW = there is power on the board. MIDI MESSAGES Output: A Tab-On gives (n xx), where xx is the tab number from 0 to and n is the Channel (0 to ). Tab-Off gives (n 0 xx). Input: Lamp-On I (n xx), where xx is the lamp number from 0 to and n is the Channel (0 to ). Lamp-Off is (n 0 xx). All Lamps Off uses (n 00) or (FF). Keep in mind when observing the tab number or channels that the software begins counting at 0, thus the first rocker tab on the LRT-A is tab '0', You can observe these messages on a computer by using MIDI Medic, a free software program for Windows, downloadable from the Classic Organ website.

If fewer than, board may be either A or section when pins C& on A become C& on. Lamp Data is cascaded from board to board, other signals are paralleled. Colours are as the resistor colour code. Console Power should be wired directly to each LRT-A, not looped. Wire colours are only suggestions, as there are more wires than colours, there will be duplication of colours. Colours follow the resistor colour code.
