Hello guys-
I realize that I can sometimes get way off topic (BTW thanks for pointing that
out Larry).
In other news, concerning my RCX controller, I did a few sketches yesterday
concerning the pneumatics and the touch sensors. As was mentioned earlier, I
will be using four touch sensors, but here I reached an impasse. I was reading
the Ferrari brothers' "Mindstorms" book the a little while ago, reading up on
sensor setup, when I read about OR configs. and AND configs. My controller will
be using an OR config.
Now my question is, have I set it up correctly for an OR configuration? I used
four t. sensors, with four seperate electric cables attached, and then attached
the free end of the cables to a 1x8 electric plate. Underneath the plate I
attached three more electric cables, and then attached the other ends to the
input ports of the RCX. Is this a correct setup for an OR configuration? Or is
this one setup of an AND configuration? Please let me know. (If this isn't
clear, I will bring my schematics to our next meeting).

| (...) Vineet, This sounds like a very good question that DOES pertain to groups like this one. Congrads for being On-Topic. It sounds like what you're describing IS an or gate, BUT, when you press any of the four buttons, it will trigger ALL THREE (...) (21 years ago, 26-Aug-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
