Description:
The TE01 Automator™ is
designed specifically for haunted attractions. It enables you to
run a short sequence of events automatically, with no operator intervention.
The sequence can be triggered by a switch (such as infra-red or
switchmat), or it can be run as a continuous loop.
Operation Overview:
The TE01 Automator™ has 4 outlets. Plug
up to 1800 watts of lighting, motors and/or relays into each outlet.
Adjust the 4 knobs on the front from 1 to 10 seconds, according
to your needs. Set the REPEAT switch to OFF.
When the GO button is pushed, outlet #1 will be turned on, and will
stay on for the number of seconds set on knob #1. When theat itime
is up, #1 will go out and #2 will come on, and will stay on for
the number of seconds set on knob #2. Ditto for #3 and #4. When
#4 is done, everything turns off and stays off until the GO button
is pressed again, repeating the process.
On the rear of the Automator™ is a set of terminals labeled
REMOTE GO. If a momentary switch such as a mat or infra-red relay
is connected to these terminals via zip cord or speaker wire, this
switch will duplicate the actions of the GO button. So a switchmat
can be used to trigger the sequence, instead of a manual push of
the GO button.
After the sequence has been initiated (with either the GO button
or the REMOTE GO), additional triggering is ignored, until the 4
channel sequence has completely ended. Therefore, should you choose
to use a switchmat as your trigger (GO), the sequence will begin
as soon as the mat is first stepped on, and subsequent stepping
on the mat will have no effect. Should you wish to stop the sequence
prematurely, the STOP button can be pressed. The STOP button will
turn everything off immediately, regardless of chat channel number
the sequence is currently on, and the next push of the GO button
(or step on the switchmat) will begin the sequence all over again.
Should you wish to use only 2 or 3 channels, simply turn the knobs
for the unused channels to their lowest setting (fully counter-clockwise).
Should you wish the sequence to automatically repeat on a continual
basis, set the REPEAT switch to ON. Now, when channel #4 is done,
#1 will immediately come on, and the sequence will be repeated over
and over , until the STOP button is pressed.
Examples for use:
#1. Your haunted attraction is walk-through, and your customers
are sent through in groups. The group enters Dracula's Cave, triggering
the Automator by passing through an infra-red beam. Channel #1 turns
on a fog machine (you have the remote switch wired to a relay) for
3 seconds. #2 is a blue light that dimly lights the room. #3 is
a spotlight that comes on as Dracula sits up and speaks. #4 is a
strobelight that chases the group out of the room.
#2. Your haunted attraction is a continuous walk-through (no groups).
In one setion you have a motor driving a sawblade, sawing off a
dummy's leg (#1 - 3 seconds); a strobelight comes on as blood squirts
and the leg shakes violently (#2 - 8 seconds); then a huge spider
squirts blood at the patrons (#3 - 3 seconds), #4 is set to 10 seconds
but there's nothing plugged into it. It's simply a pause before
the whole sequence starts again.
