Will a prop 1 do what I need ?

[Lynn]

I want to build a prop and I don't know if a prop 1 will do what I need....
I havent purchased one yet but considering it.

I want to trigger and time a motor to open and close some locker doors... then I need it to trigger an actuator to open a coffin and then raise up a corpse.  Also I need it to turn on some lights and a strobe light, and trigger sound...
Will the prop1 or the prop 2 do this ?

Thanks for the help.

You can probably do all that with a Prop-1.  You'll need a couple relays to control the motor: one for power, the other for direction.  To turn on the strobe you can either use a relay, or using something like our RC-4.  The pneumatic valves (so long as they meet our specs) can be connected right to the Prop-1 outputs.

I would define the Prop-1 I/O structure this way:

P7 - control for accessories (RC-4, AP-8, etc.)
P6 - trigger input for prop
P5 - available
P4 - available
OUT3 - raise corpse valve
OUT2 - open coffin valve
OUT1 - motor direction relay
OUT0 - motor power relay

Ok,  I think I see......
a relay for power ... but direction doesnt matter to me ...so would I need one for that ?

the Valves... each would just have a port to release air so the coffin would close and the corse would lay back down ?

Thanks for your help here... I just need to know the specs.

My locker motor will have a cam setup on it..... that will open and close the doors.  So direction isnt an issue.
