Composition
The network relay is a device used to separate a network within a ship or station into multiple partially separate sub-networks. Separate sub-networks allow one-way broadcasting of variable changes between them, and enable the creation of modular YOLOL systems.
Basic information
- Network Relays are connected to two separate data networks via cable sockets at both ends of the device
- One end of the relay acts as the "input" connection
- The other end acts as the "output" connection
- The input / output direction is shown through triangles pointing towards the output side
- When the relay is powered, changes made to device fields connected to the input propagate / will apply to all similarly named device fields that are connected to relay output
- Values between networks are not automatically synchronized
- This means that connected networks may contain different values for similarly named device fields
- Values between networks are not automatically synchronized
- A Network Relay can also not propagate data, by setting MasterIsEnabled or IsEnabled to 0
- MasterIsEnabled can only be influenced from the Input side
- IsEnabled can be influenced from the input side if it is propagating data. If it is 0, it can only be influenced from the Output side.
NOTE: the Network relay can only function, if there is no open connection between the separate data networks, like a different network relay or a direct cable connection.
- Use in conjunction with memory relays to transfer power and select data
Device fields
| YOLOL field | description | range |
|---|---|---|
| IsMasterEnabled | On / Off (Input side) | 0 / 1 |
| IsEnabled | On / Off (Output side) | 0 / 1 |
