Wireless Devices

Frequencies

Most Atmos devices will use these frequencies, You're going to have to explore security to find the other frequency.

• Engineering: 122.5
• Science: 122.9

Pumps

Pumps Powered down pumps do not transfer gas, Meaning they can be used as controllable Electronic Valves, Commands The following points demon WARNING: Omitting tag will cause commands to be sent to ALL pumps Power on command: power_on tag: (Pump Name) Power off command: power_off tag: (Pump Name) Set target pressure NOTE: parameter has a max value of 5066.25kPa tag: (Pump Name) command: set_target_pressure parameter: (Target Pressure) Broadcast status command: broadcast_status Pump Status The following is transmited whenever a pump recieves are command tag: (Pump Name) device: AGP power: on or off target_output: (Target Pressure) address_tag: pumpcontrol Packet Examples Purge Hotloop: tag=Hot Loop Purge Pump;command=power_on Check All Pumps: command=broadcast_status Set Pressure: tag=Hot Loop Purge Pump;command=set_target_pressure;parameter=5000

Gas Mixers

Gas Mixers Did I hear you say "Adjustable combustion chamber temperatures?" Unfortunately I have not been able to tap into status reports from mixers Commands Toggle Power command: toggle_pump parameter: power_on or power_off tag: (Mixer Name) Set gas ratio NOTE: parameter value is Input 1 ratio only ie. 66 = 66:33 command: set_ratio parameter: (0-100 Number) tag: (Mixer Name) Set gas pressure NOTE: parameter is an uncapped value command: set_ratio parameter: (Target Air Pressure) tag: (Mixer Name) Packet Examples Set Ratio to 66:33: tag=engine_combust_control; command=set_ratio; parameter=66 Set Pressure to 75kPa: tag=engine_combust_control; command=set_pressure; parameter=75 Turn off mixer: tag=engine_combust_control; command=toggle_pump; parameter=power_off

MechComp Devices

Connecting the generator and pressure will require using you multitool on them and selecting "Connect Component"

The Generator

The Generator Ever wanted to boast about the engine output to the crew? Well now you can do it automatically! Outputs power: (Unformatted power output) powerfmt: (Formatted power output, 2.21 GW) power=3.84698e+06&powerfmt=3.847 MW RegEx Example Output: power=3.84698e+06&powerfmt=3.847 MW Seperate powerfmt: (?<=&powerfmt=)[^&]+ = 3.847 MW

Pressure Meter

Pressure Meter Ever wanted to boast about the engine output to the crew? Well now you can do it automatically! Outputs pressure: (Pipe Pressure) temperature: (Pipe temperature) RegEx Example Output: pressure=3410.27&temperature=20462.7 Seperate pressure as whole number: ([0-9]+) = 3410

Circulators (Blowers)

Circulators (Blowers) Useful for optimizing the target pressure on the blowers. Inputs NOTE: parameter has a max value of 100000kPa Toggle Active: (Pipe Pressure) Set Target Pressure: (Pipe temperature)

Hot Loop Auto-purge Assembly

Tired of your hot loop pipes rupturing and plasma flooding engineering? Well this is for you!

Mechlab Shopping List:

• 1x RegEx Find Component.
• 1x Arithmetic Component.
• 2x Signal Check Component.
• 1x WiFi Component.

Optional:

• Letter Display (See if the pump is currently on)
• Text Display (Show off your current pipe pressure)
• Component Cabinet

To Assemble (Or see wiring diagram below):

1. Place and wrench components, Optionally: In a component cabinet
2. Interact with a multitool on a meter, select "Connect Component"
   • Use a pressure meter that is directly connecting to the furnaces/combustion chamber, Avoid meters on the output end of pipes
3. Interact with the RegEx Find Component, select "Check String"
4. Interact with the multitool to finish pairing
5. On the RegEx Find Component set "Expression Pattern" to ([0-9]+)
6. Hold your multitool, Click and drag from the RegEx Find Component to the Arithmetic Component
   • Select "Trigger" then "Set A"
7. On Signal Check A, set: "Set B" = 14500; "Mode" = gte
   • This compares if A >= B, B is your max pressure (Change "Mode" to lte to make this setup do something when the pressure is low, Eg. Turn on an inlet pump)
8. On the Arithmetic component set "Set B" to 14500 (This is your Auto-purge pressure)
9. On the Arithmetic component set "Mode" to gte (Greather than or Equal) (Additionally, this is where you could turn this into an Auto-filler if the pressure is low)
10. Hold your multitool, Click and drag from the Arithmetic Component to both Signal Check Components
11. On Signal Check A, set: "Send Signal" = tag=Hot Loop Purge Pump;command=power_on; "Trigger String" = 1; Replace Signal = On
12. On Signal Check B, set: "Send Signal" = tag=Hot Loop Purge Pump;command=power_off; "Trigger String" = 0; Replace Signal = On
13. Hold your multitool, Click and drag both Signal Check Components to both the WiFi Component
14. On the WiFi component, set: "Frequency" = 1255
15. Open the manual hot loop purge valve
    • If multiple use the one before gas reaches the engine inlet

What is this doing?

• When the meter pressure is above 14500, the Arithmetic will send a 1 to both Signal Checks, Signal Check A then sends a WiFi packet to turn on the purge pump.
