Description

The transformer is used to control the maximum amount of power that will flow on a cable, preventing the cables from overloading on high power draw. It comes in 2 variants, Transformer Small and Transformer.

The small transformer is limited to 5,000W output and the large one to 50,000W.

Usage

Given that the transformer can limit power very specifically (with 100W increments), you can control or stop the output line from drawing more than the transformer gives out. This can be used to control many items that don't have a changing power usage, such as lights, volume pumps, pipe regulators, active vents, and more. This is similar to the Area Power Controller but does not have a battery buffer.

Notes

Data will not flow through a transformer, isolating the circuit behind their input.

Data Network Properties

These are all Data Network properties of this device. This list is not tested at all for the Transformer Small and not complete for Transformer (kit/large variant).

Data Parameters

These are all parameters, that can be written to with a Logic Writer, Batch Writer, or Integrated Circuit (IC10). The outputs are listed in the order a Logic Writer's "VAR" setting cycles through them.

Header text	Header text	Header text
On	Boolean	Turns the Transformer on, when set to 1. Turns it off, when set to 0.
Lock	Boolean	Locks the Transformer, when set to 1. Unlocks it when set to 0
Setting	Integer	Sets the Transformer's power (in Watts) limit.

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. You cannot read ratios in IC2 chip (so far)

Parameter Name	Data Type	Description
