Author Topic: Hard Drive (Default Events) *New* [Anatomy Video]  (Read 14684 times)

I am currently developing a console that will read your hard drive and report each value and color code on screen.

Uses default events and no named bricks as keeping in theme with the hard drive.


Since my last prototype keyboard was completed, I have been working on the output counterpart. It took a while, because the process turned out to be exceedingly difficult for me. However, I finally have it - the completed keyboard system:







Top Left
From left to right:

The green button on the left is the lock/reset button. Corresponding to the required 5 seconds, it will lock itself for 5 seconds while erasing/unlocking is commencing.

The keys in the middle input their corresponding value to the memory slot. Up to fifteen values can be entered, and they will transmit the data to a RAM system inside the keyboard.

The far right white key is the Enter button. Upon pressing this, the keyboard's RAM system will modulate and enter the data into the drive. Even the 1 key will cycle the chip all the way around and lock it.

The green button above the keyboard signals the harddrive to output, which is then displayed on the display above in a color-sequence with the same S-pattern as the interior of the drive.


Bottom
Here is an overall view of the keyboard system, including the display. The button to the right of the display clears the monitor and resets the receiver from the output. Thanks to the harddrive's use of 15 chips and the 4x4 RAM system's being 16 studs, the output system was able to be wired throughthe RAM system, allowing for maximum compaction.

Top Right
This keyboard is plugged directly into the harddrive itself, as seen by the f-ender HIO port.



This keyboard system has been fully tested and tweaked. Input and output are both fully fine-tuned and working. The keyboard's overall shape is designed specifically to fit as an extension of the MB Precision Harddrive, and is fully compatible with V3 as of Jan 5, 2003.

The keyboard is easily removable from the drive, allowing for quick writing or reading and removal. It is, as per the theme of the drive, built with only default bricks, uses only default events and projectiles, and is loadable with the default colorset. It has been duplicator tested, and is safe with any duplicator tool which can rotate relay-events.

This is my primary contribution to the project.

What does it do

What does it do
It is a keyboard/display system for the harddrive covered by this topic. The keyboard writes to the disk, letting me choose what I want on a particular drive.

I'm surprised in myself that I haven't posted in here before now.

This is a prime example of quality eventing, and one of the reasons IcyGamma's my favorite eventer (besides the fact that hes a coolbro)



New Case Designs Released

Today two new case designs have been released, including an additional case-less version. Dubbed the 'collectors edition' the pack features all three of the new designs based on the Rev 3 model, minus the classic stone edition.

Diamond Case
A transparent pearl case with line texture sides, a chrome belt, and a dark grey frame.

Open Case
A functioning caseless version for people who wish to design their own, or slot it into an existing build.

Orchard Industrial
Built with high-tech mechanical settings in mind, this is the boldest of all cases. Featuring very shiny chrome sides, with a 1x1 textured orange chrome belt, and orange top.

Yes my failed attempt at building a case proved quite fatal in the stability of my purchased hard-drive.

So that's more money spent on customer support for 5 minutes than the hard-drive itself.

I would like a refund of my customer support as well as my hard-drive.

Give me a refund or else I'll reverse engineer your technology and turn your hard-drive into a potato peeler.

Hello this is Raj I have been forwarded to your call

You broke the drive and we can not refund but we will give you an offer of a replacement please redownload thank you have good time.
