First there was the mechanical drum switch, an important control device that has controlled (amongst other things) washing machines and the like for a long time.
This evolved into the more flexible software programmable PLC sequencer . The latest version of Spike Prototype has a built in logic sequencer for rapid sequential logic wireframing. It can be used in conjunction with, or as an alternative to, the event recorder.The great advantage of the logic sequencer is that you can easily embed scripts in both steps and transition, change times between steps, and actuate multiple devices in parallel. Finally , you can export the new logic sequence as an excel spreadsheet. We are working on direct export to a phase, for unit-scoped modules. Watch this space…
