 | | Simulating pneumatic sequencers, was Re: Pneumatic Quadraped 242 —Philippe Hurbain
| | | | (...) Hi Kevin and all, I wanted to experiment with your sequencers without fussing too much with time consuming building, so I used simulation... I used a free electronics simulator, CircuitMaker Student ((URL) Piston + switch are equivalent to an (...) (21 years ago, 26-Nov-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | | (...) Philo, Hey! Great stuff! I've been aware of the electrical equivalence, but not mentioned it. Maybe if you put capacitors in series at the inputs of each flop, your test points might have less vertical slope. I'll probably use the simulator to (...)

| | | | | (...) Philo, I downloaded the tools, and entered the base schematic for Quad242. Quad242 depends on some initial conditions where 4 of the 5 flops have a value of 1. I've read the docs and not found a way to preset the flops. Any ideas? Your choice (...) (21 years ago, 28-Nov-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Hi Kevin, Here is a simple circuit that also require some initialisation: (URL) didn't find the digital equivalent of the .IC (initial condition) used in analog simulations, but if you use the probe tool (arrow on the screen capture) and click (...)
