Double-carted power-to-signal converter
"The light green gear is still engaged but no power is being sent to it because the dark green is off." - Why is this the case? Is the pressure plate linked to the dark green gear assembly in addition to the intended output machines? If so, why is this not stated in the article? --Quietust 10:52, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
- Power is coming in on the bottom gear, so when it is disengaged by the pressure plate it doesn't matter that the top gear is engaged, or not, no power can be transmitted up the axel to activate the roller. It made sense to me... but that whole area needs re-writing to remove the personal voice anyway, I guess. --TinyPirate 10:57, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
- Isn't this more of a latch? If i understand it correctly, it must be switched off with a signal and won't turn off when power to the gear is cut. --Larix (talk) 17:57, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
- PS: if i haven't got it completely wrong, it's simply a NOT gate, but this fact is obscured by the complicated operation. The proof of a Power-to-Signal generator is deconstructing an axle or other powered component so power connection is lost without signals: this should turn the device off. --Larix (talk) 01:55, 18 February 2014 (UTC)
