Control Station Packs

Control Station Packs
The Control Station Box is a simple-to-use control box that enables pupils to control real life models from the computer. Connect a model to the box, and use the Control Station software to build programs to control it.
Pupils can control: the model kit from the Control Station Starter Pack, models from the Control Models Kit; or models they have built themselves as part of their D&T work.
They can switch motors, lamps and buzzers in the models on and off in sequences; and make the models respond to input devices such as switches and sensors. For example they can make a fan switch on automatically when it gets hot, or make a sliding door open when someone approaches it.
