Need input details on new product

[ERM]

Hello All,

Well, I've read on here several times where people are trying to control different features or colors with different switch positions and are having difficulty trying to figure out how to do it.  This comes down to wiring diodes and relays in specific configurations in order to attempt to accomplish such a setup.  It would all be simpler if there was a single module that accomplished all of this with inputs for the switches and outputs for what is to be controlled.  Only problem is I need help with the features.

If you are needing something like this, I need to know how many switch functions you are looking for and scenarios of what items want to be controlled.  All of these are helpful in producing the right product to help you accomplish these actions AND to make it one product, instead of using a bunch of diodes and relays to get close to what you want.  And as with all of our products, you have the ability to customize it in the field should your needs change.

So, I need to know the number of inputs, outputs and descriptions of features if you can please.

Thanks,

Tony

My first thought would be say six switches, one aspect would be the ability of one switch to control different outputs thru progession , let's use a pair of Apollos for instance, one press makes X output hot, another press kills X but makes XX hot, a third press is off... This would allow control of the two modes via one switch, or if you were wiring a smart traffic advisor, you could do left/right/center out via one button...  So essentially there would be more outputs than switches with customization to suit your needs....  I have no idea if this is feasible but it would be awesome, especially in the case of multiple mode lights currently available.  Thoughts?....

I already have the code written for that type of module.  That will be added to one of the control panels we are working on releasing.
