Introduced complex operations:

Ferris Wheel (Intermediate)

At Anytime the gate is open – All Stops

• Parallel Programming only
• Button 1 (ON) only – Loading Mode – Wheel Spin carriage to the step – wait .5 sec – spin to the next carriage, etc.
• switches on all the lights – Lights should be blinking at different rates and different rates patterns
• Gate must be close

 

• Button 1 (ON) and Button 2 (ON)
• switches on all the lights – Lights should be blinking at different rates and different rates patterns
• Wheel spin continuously
• Gate must be close

 

• Button 2 (ON only)
• Wheel Spins backward – continuously
• All lights OFF
• Gate must be close

For advance users:

• Loading sequence – each carriage will be loaded at the step for 5 sec.
• The wheel spins for 1 min continuously.
• Unloading sequence – each carriage will be loaded at the step for 5 sec.

Counting of the carriages are required (Use variables)

 

Railway Crossing

• Parallel Programming only
• Objective – Create a program to control the crossing lights and the crossing guard
• Use the sensors to detect the train’s arrival and departure
• Secondary objective – Create a program to control the train (Yes, you can stop the train – Find Out How)
• Stop the train make it wait, and go again

Train Set 1

• Parallel Programming only
• Create a program to control the train
• Cerate a program to control the crossing lights and the crossing guard
• Use the sensors to detect the train’s arrival and departure
• The train will stop at the station for 10 sec. every second revolution to load and unload passengers
• Create a function for Input 1 and Input 2 – suggestion, train move forward, train move backward, etc.

 

Train Set 2

• Parallel Programming only
• Create a program to control the trains
• Cerate a program to control the crossing lights and the crossing guard
• Use the sensors to detect the train’s arrival and departure
• The trains will stop at the station for 10 sec.
• Each stop will alternate platform(s)

Create a function for Input 1 and Input 2 – suggestion, train move forward, train move backward, etc.

• For advance users – adjust one of the trains to go faster than the other.
• For Ultra Users – can you make one train go forward and one train to backward using the same tracks – station stops may be used to allow the other train to go by.
