Console

Description

This Norsec-designed control box manages devices such as the Active Vent, Passive Vent, Gas Sensor and Composite Door, depending on which circuitboard is inserted into the unit. It has a shared data/power port.

A completed console displays all devices connected to the current power network. Any devices not related to the installed circuitboard will be greyed-out and inoperable. Consoles are locked once a Data Disk is removed.

- Stationpedia

The console is one device of the Console item kit. The console can be fitted with a Circuitboard. When putting in a data disk, the console can be configured after being fully constructed with a circuitboard. After putting out the data disk it runs like previously configured. There is the Console (Variant 1 of the kit) which has a mixed input (data and energy) and the Console Dual (Variant 2 of the kit) which has two inputs (one for energy and one for data).

Example set up

For example one can set it to pressure measurement (requires gas circuit board inside) which allows one to read out the actual pressure value of a connected gas sensor. (Setup shown in picture)

Tips

• You need to insert a Circuit Board and then put a sheet of glass over it to complete construction.
• To display general readings, only the Graph Display Circuit Board will find all the devices which are connected to your power grid. Any available readings will be shown on the select list.
• For other specialized Circuit Boards (Gas, Power, etc.) the only values that can be displayed are those related to the function of that board.

Deconstruction

First remove the glass sheet with a Crowbar. The device itself is deconstructed with the Hand Drill.

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
Open	Boolean	(Unknown)
On	Boolean	Turns the Console on, when set to 1. Turns it off, when set to 0.

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
Power	Boolean	Returns whether the Console is turned on and receives power. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Open	Boolean	(Unknown)
Error	Boolean	Returns whether the Console is flashing an error. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
On	Boolean	Returns whether the Console is turned on. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
RequiredPower	Integer	Returns the current amount of power required by the Console, in watts.

Mode Values

These lists the values and meanings for the "Mode" property of the LED Display.

Value	Meaning	"Setting" parameter interpretation
0	Normal number display	Direct display as a number. Values smaller than 1.000E-07 will be displayed as 0.
1	Percentage number display	Input range of 0.0 to 1.0 is interpolated and displayed as the range 0% to 100%. Values outside this range scale more, e.g. 10 shows as 1000%
2	Power display	Adds a watt suffix (W) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metric prefix to the suffix. (e.g. kW)
3	Kelvin display	Adds a Kelvin suffix (K) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metric prefix to the suffix. (e.g. kK)
4	Celcius display	Adds a degrees Celcius suffix (°C) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metric prefix to the suffix. (e.g. k°C)
5	Meters display	Adds a meters suffix (m) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metric prefix to the suffix. (e.g. km)
6	Credits display	Adds a Credits suffix (€) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metric prefix to the suffix. (e.g. k€)
7	Seconds display	Adds a seconds suffix (sec) to the number. Does not divide and apply a metric prefix for Setting values >= 1000.
8	Minutes display	Adds a minutes suffix (min) to the number. Does not divide and apply a metric prefix for Setting values >= 1000.
9	Days display	Adds a days suffix (days) to the number. Does not divide and apply a metric prefix for Setting values >= 1000. Always indicates "days" even when Setting is 1.
10	String display	Displays the Setting value as an octet-packed ASCII string of up to six characters. A Setting value of $414243444546 will display "ABCDEF" on the display.
11	Farenheit display	Adds a farenheit suffix (°F) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metric prefix to the suffix. (e.g. k°F)
12	Litres display	Adds a Litres suffix (L) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metric prefix to the suffix. (e.g. kL)
13	Mol display	Adds a Mols suffix (mol) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metric prefix to the suffix. (e.g. kmol)
14	Pa display	Adds a Pascals suffix (Pa) to the number. Also divides the number as needed and adds a metricprefix to the suffix. (e.g. kPa)

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	Sets the display mode of the LED Display to the passed value. (See Mode Values)
Setting	Float	Sets the raw number to display on the LED Display.
On	Boolean	Turns the LED Display on, when set to 1. Turns it off, when set to 0.
Color	Integer	Sets the color of the text on the LED Display. (See Data Network Colors)

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
Power	Boolean	Returns whether the LED Display is turned on and receives power. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Mode	Integer	Returns the mode of the LED Display. (See Mode Values)
Error	Boolean	Returns whether the LED Display is flashing an error. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Setting	Float	Returns the "Setting" value of the LED Display.
On	Boolean	Returns whether the LED Display is turned on. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
RequiredPower	Integer	Returns the current amount of power, required by the LED Display, in watts.
Color	Integer	Returns the color setting of the LED Display. (See Data Network Colors)
