        Re: Classic timing circuits and XOR gates (long) —danny staple
      Hi People, I really appretiate the circuits Mark has put up, they are very instructive, and between you you guys are taking Lego pneumatics before I have seen it go before. But - in your diagrams, you do not label the components - which make them (...) (19 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
    
         Re: Pneumatic logic diagrams —Mark Bellis
     (...) Thanks for taking a look at clarity of drawings. I have made some improvements since I drew that one - I now use thinner lines for the straight bits to represent flex tube. This reduces the balloon effect in the model, so its use is desirable (...) (19 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)

   (...) (SNIP) (...) your diagram is particular to your overall circuit, right? (...) Absolutely..... I've found that a single can do the task, but only at maximum pressure. (...) Agreed...

   (...) Out of date reversors. Now my reversors are simply four switches in the same configuration as in XOR gates. (...) Good thing I don't use that design any more ;^) (...) Yes, you can make the engine run more or less efficiently which maps to (...) (19 years ago, 12-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)

   (...) (SNIP) (...) Ah yes, like this (URL) you have any pictures of how you used the reversors? How successful have they been in your walkers? Mark (19 years ago, 3-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic)
   
        Re: Classic timing circuits and XOR gates (long) —Kevin L. Clague
   (...) Yes. I've used it in walkers to switch from forward walking to reverse walking, and to switch from walking to turning and back. I move them by hand, rather than with pistons. With pistons, I consider them XOR gates. They work very well. Thanks (...) (19 years ago, 3-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic)
