Stacker

Kit (Stacker)

Recipe
Created With	Autolathe, Fabricator
Cost	10g Iron, 2g Copper

Description

The kit has 3 variations : 2 are the Stacker, with the power/data port on one side or the other. The last variant is the Unloader

Used to stack items in a chosen quantity. The stacker holds back the input until the configured quantity can be stacked _or_ until the input item type changes. If the input is bigger than the chosen quantity, the stacker (despite it's name) splits it.

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 = Automatic stacking and export, 1 = Stack and hold until Activate = 1
Activate	Boolean	If set to 1, the Stacker will clear its content via its Export Slot
Lock	Boolean
Setting	Integer	Default is 1. Sets the Stack Size (won't actually stack to that size if item's max stack size is smaller)
On	Boolean
ClearMemory	Integer?	Writing on this Parameter will reset the ExportCount and ImportCount values to zero.
Output	Integer	Value of 0 for Mode 0. Mode 1 sets this to -1 as default. A value of -1 seems to mean hold export.

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	Boolean
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 Export Slot
Error	Boolean
Activate	Boolean	1 if empty, 0 if something is inside the Stacker. When set to 0 The player can use the lever to clear the Stacker
Setting	Integer	Default is 1. Shows the Stack Size this Stacker is set to.
RequiredPower	Integer	In watts. The Stacker require 5W to operate.
PrefabHash	Float	Hash ID of the Stacker.
Power	Boolean
Output	Integer	Value of 0 in Mode 0. Mode 1 sets this to -1.
On	Boolean

Notes

The stacker can only stack things up to the stacking limit of the given item:

• Ingots can be stacked up to 500.
• Ore will not stack over 50.

The unloader variant will empty the content of a belt/container. It will output everything that is inside, followed by belt/container itself.

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 = automatic export, 1 = holds export until Output set
Lock	Boolean
On	Boolean
ClearMemory	Integer?	Writing on this Parameter will reset the ExportCount and ImportCount values to zero.
Output	Integer	Value of 0 in Mode 0. Mode 1 sets this to -1 as default. Writing a 0 (import) will export the entire container and reset Output to -1, 1 (export) will export a single item stack from the container and will reset Output to -1

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
Mode	Boolean
Error	Boolean
Lock	Boolean
On	Boolean
RequiredPower	Integer	In watts. The Unloader require 50W to operate.
ExportCount	Integer	Incremented each time an item stack exit by the Export Slot
ImportCount	Integer	Incremented each time an item stack enter by the Import slot
Output	Integer	Value of 0 for Mode 0. Mode 1 sets this to -1(hold output) and will reset after output is written and an item is exported.

The stacker has 3 slots that can be read by MIPS programs. Slot 0 is the loading slot. Slot 1 is the output slot, and Slot 2 is the internal buffer/storage. Unless something gets clogged, slots 0 and 1 will have Quantity=0 for all but the moment an item passes through them either into the internal buffer, or the chute network or room.
