Description

No amount of automation is complete without some way of moving different items to different parts of a system. The Xigo A2B sorter can be programmed via a computer with a Sorter Motherboard to direct various items into different chute networks. Filtered items are always passed out the righthand side of the sorter, while non filtered items continue straight through.
- Stationpedia

When the Mode is set to 0 or if there is no WhiteList configured on a computer, the Sorter will act as a splitter: items will alternate their output lane each time. The Output property will switch value accordingly.

When controlled by a computer with a Motherboard (Sorter) you can whitelist item(s) or itemgroup(s) and discard the rest out the alternate lane. If you are looking at the output side of the machine (with the power switch on your right) whitelist output is left, discarded items output is right.

Changing Output or Mode via logic or IC can cause an item to get stuck in the sorter until the logic circuit or IC command the Output to either 0 or 1. This behavior is normal. After the first output, the Output variable is set to -1. This is normal behavior and a reset circuit (using logic chips) or Output loop (using IC) will serve the purpose of using the ports properly so long as they send the Output variable after each item enters the sorter.

Data Network Properties

Data Parameters

These are all parameters that can be written with a Logic Writer, Batch Writer, or Integrated Circuit (IC10), and can be read with a Logic Reader, Batch Reader, or Integrated Circuit (IC10).

Parameter Name	Data Type	Access	Value	Description
Power	Boolean	Read	0	Unpowered	Can be read to return if the Sorter is correctly powered or not, set via the power system, return 1 if powered and 0 if not
			1	Powered
Mode	Integer	Read Write	0	Split	The mode of the Sorter, Split does alternate outputs, Filter decides output via Motherboard (Sorter), Logic determines output via parameter Output
			1	Filter
			2	Logic
Error	Boolean	Read	0		1 if device is in error state, otherwise 0
			1	Error
Lock	Boolean	Read Write	0	Unlocked	Disable manual operation of the Sorter.
			1	Locked
On	Boolean	Read Write	0	Off	The current state of the Sorter.
			1	On
RequiredPower	Integer	Read			Idle operating power quantity, does not necessarily include extra demand power
ClearMemory	Integer	Write			When set to 1, clears the counter memory (e.g. ExportCount). Will set itself back to 0 when actioned
ExportCount	Integer	Read			How many items exported since last ClearMemory
ImportCount	Integer	Read			How many items imported since last ClearMemory
Output	Integer	Read Write	-1	Unset	Decides which side the next item will be sent to. In Logic mode, defaults to -1 after action. In Split mode, alternates between 0 and 1 after action. Does nothing in Filter mode. When set to 0 the item will exit the output slot closest to the power switch. When set to 1, the item will exit the slot furthest from the power switch.
			0	Straight (Near Power Switch)
			1	Side
PrefabHash	Integer	Read			The hash of the structure
ReferenceId	Integer	Read			Unique Reference Identifier for this object
NameHash	Integer	Read			Provides the hash value for the name of the object as a 32 bit integer.

Data Slots

These are all parameters, that can be read with a Slots Reader. The outputs are listed in the order a Slots Reader's "VAR" setting cycles through them.

Number	Name	Description
0	Import	Import slot.
1	Export (accept)	Export slot.
2	Export (reject)	Export slot.
3	Data Disk	Diskslot

Name	Data Type	Description
MaxQuantity	Integer	Returns maximum stacksize.
Damage	Integer	Item durability in percent.
Class	Integer	Item class ID.
Quantity	Integer	Size of stack.
PrefabHash	Integer	Returns ItemHash of item in slot.
Occupied	Boolean	Returns whether the slot occupied. (0 for no, 1 for yes).
OccupantHash	Integer	Returns ItemHash of item in slot.

Item Slot Classes / Types

Reading the class attribute of the input slot will give one of the following values:

Note that you can use

SlotClass.<Item>

directly in IC code instead of the numeric value

• NOTE The classes listed in this section are FilterSlotTypeCompare and NOT sorting class.
