A Switching Problem...

    There is a small switch in my post "oil to gas converter" on its continuous loop that automates the system. for some reason, the switch will not turn on, breaking the loop. the loop should turn on when you spark "Auto" on the control box, and turn off when you spark "Off"

     

    The troublesome switch should be in the zoom window.

    Just BTW, zoom windows are client-side, that is, their location isn't saved on the server.

    The problem is with how you've used WIFI, WIFI does not pass SPRK to METL. WIFI will accept SPRK from METL, but on the side that you want the SPRK to come out of, you need to use PSCN/NSCN/INWR instead of METL.

    Note that NSCN is the only element that will not pass SPRK to WIFI.

    To fix your contraption, you need to put 1 pixel of NSCN next to the WIFI on the right.


    Also, to make your electronics considerably smaller, I recommend learning how to use DLAY instead of those massive METL loops. Good for engines too.

    You can use DLAY instead of the huge METL loops. Set DLAY's temperature and put PSCN on one side and NSCN on the other. Spark the PSCN and the DLAY will delay the spark (Higher the temperature of DLAY, larger the delay) before passing it to NSCN.

    he would like some non-WATR and DLAY delay.
    so, a 4 element delayer like this: NSCN, INWR, PSCN then METL, can be used.
    it's conducting properties prevents to loop jump (but not at the end when it it sticked, or curving) the cables.

    But DLAY is still smaller, and easier to fine-tune IMO.

     Awesome, just added new version with DLAY

    sorry, havent had the time lately to fine tune the delay circuit. it's spring break now, so I'll get to it soon

    have at least 2 spaces from PSCN-DLAY, that one will work.

    Thanks, now it works
