16-Input Match Maker Sensor (FX10)

The FX10 is a convenient way to detect the arbitrary state of up to 16 inputs. Originally designed for circuit breaker props, it can be used to detect the state of 8 inputs, twice! Each set of 8 inputs is compared to user settable switches and the output is driven low when the inputs DO NOT match the switches. The outputs can be tied together for a single 16 input match controller. The controller performs a logical comparison between 8 internal switches and 8 external inputs, twice! Each comparison is reflected with a status led and an output pulled high. The outputs can be wired together to create a single 16 input comparator. There are two key advantages to this controller. One, the solution can be quickly changed by changing the switches on the controller. Two, in cases where the switches are borrowed from real life hardware (like circuit breakers, keyboards, etc.), you may not have access to both sides of the switch to hardwire your logic. In this case, you can wire the common side
