When the relay is powered, changes made to device fields on the input chip will propagate to the corresponding device field on the output chip. Data which occupies a device field on the left side of the relay will be propagated to the device field with a matching index on the right side of the relay. For example: The data in device field #3 on the input (left) chip will be automatically propagated to device field #3 on the output (right) chip. However, both sides of the relay must be enabled for the data to propagate: Disabling either side will prevent this transfer.

Summary



Memory relay.png

The memory relay is a device used to transfer a data fileds from one memory chip to another, allowing for data fields to be linked with different field names.
Memory relays separate sub-networks allowing for one-way broadcasting of variable changes, enabling the creation of modular YOLOL systems.

Basic information

  • Memory Relays are connected to two separate data networks via cable sockets at both ends of the device, or by conection to modular device racks.
    • One side (left) of the relay acts as the "input" connection.
    • The other side (right) acts as the "output" connection.
  • When the relay is powered, changes made to device fields on the input chip will propagate to the coresponding device field on the output chip.
    • For example the field in position 3 on the input chip will be propagated to the field in position 3 on the output chip, regardless of name.
    • Values between networks are not automatically synchronized.
      • This means that connected networks may contain different values for similarly named device fields.
