Big Reactor - Reactor control help

[Lonewolf187]

I need some help trying to set up my big reactor to automatically turn it self on and off. I do not have much experience using vanilla redstone or using rednet components, but I would like to set up the reactor to turn on when the internal battery gets below 10% and turn off when it gets to 90%. How would I go about doing that?

Well, first of all, we need the pack.
I could make a CC script for this, but if you're in ASHQ...

I am no PRC expert, but here is my attempt:

Basically take the magenta input and set var 0 to true if it is greater than 90 and var 1 to true if it is less than 10.

SR latch controlled by the 2 variables. Over 90 resets the latch to off. Below 10 sets the latch to on.

There is a wierd case where the reactor is at 0 energy the reactor does not output a 0, but a null value that is apparently not less than 10. I'll see if i can recreate it, but manually setting the reactor to on should get it into the latched cycle.

I'm using the Monster Pack modified, I do have MineFactory and CC still in there.

if you have project red installed, the circuit above will do exactly what you want

1) install 3 redstone ports

2) setup the ports
leftmost port: set this to turn reactor on/off via redstone signal
middle port: set this to emit redstone signal when power buffer is below 10%
rightmost port: set this to emit redstone signal when power buffer is above 90%

3) wire the circuit
use a project red rs latch, with output going to redstone port that toggles the reactor on/off
use jacketed wire to run wire from ports

4) ....

5) profit!
