The Powder Toy

Need help with my radar.

  • Sublimity     28th Mar 2011 Member 0 Permalink
    I'm making a (small) radar (actually, it just looks like one). Anyway, I have made 4 different 'scan' timers. I also made 4 stop buttons, to stop each different scan.

    But I have problems with the 'Stop' buttons.

    Thanks in advance


    NOTE: I'm not advertising my creation in any way, I simply need help with it.

    I don't see what's wrong with it...besides it not completing one full loop.
    You might have to make the wifi inside the circle, not on, and fix the loop. Unless it's supposed to stop.

    Let me fix the loop and post a new version...

    EDIT: Fixed the loop. Can someone think of a way to stop the spark from looping?

    I'll have a go.

    Edit:
    Your stop buttons aren't sending a link to anything?

    TRY SWCH, SO WHEN YOU PRESS START IT SENDS A SIGNAL TO TURN ON THE SWCH AND TIMER, THEN WHEN YOU PRESS STOP IT CLOSES SWCH.

    @cctvdude99
    My stop buttons aren't sending anything, yes, because I couldn't get them to work.
    Could you show me an example of what you mean?

    K. Gimme 5 minutes.

    EDIT:
    I only did it on the first timer.

    HOLD ON DIDN'T WORK.

    Edit 2: Try it now. Didn't work =( Trying a third time!

    EDIT 3: For some reason, the switch is sending the spark to P/NSCN and it's not supposed to do that.

    EDIT 4: Sorry, I give up, the switch is glitched and... Just... Just... No... Just no.

    Thanks for trying. It is harder than it looks, isn't it?

    But if you can think of another start/stop system I'd like to hear it.


    Bump.
    If anyone knows another way to stop/start the spark, I'd like to hear it.

    what radar are you talking about? please give me a link to the actual radar, not the photo of your dog? easy mistake to make. 25`000 and counting models exist to date (i counted them using the ID and trial and error).
