Description

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

These are all Data Network properties of this device.

Data Parameters

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

Parameter Name	Data Type	Description
Mode	Integer	0 = alternate outputs, 1 = sorter motherboard, 2 = logic mode; Set to 0 by default.
Lock	Boolean	Disable manual control of surface buttons
On	Boolean
ClearMemory	Boolean	Writing on this Parameter will reset the ExportCount and ImportCount values to zero.
Output	Integer	If Mode = 2, set Output to 0 to send item in input slot straight through, or set to 1 to send the item to the side (defaults to -1 after action)

Data Outputs

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

Output Name	Data Type	Description
Mode	Integer
Lock	Boolean
ImportCount	Integer	Incremented each time an item stack enter by the Import slot
ExportCount	Integer	Incremented each time an item stack exit by the rejected Export Slot (as in : every time a non whitelisted item is sorted.
Error	Boolean
Requiredpower	Integer	In Watts. The Sorter requires 100W of power to function
PrefabHash	Integer	Returns ItemHash of device
Power	Boolean	Device on and receiving power (true\false)
Output	Integer	if set to 0, the next item will exit from the right side slot (while facing the exits side of the sorter). If set to 1, the next item will exit the from the left side. (defaults to -1 after action)
On	Boolean

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.
