Control Panel

The Control Panel is a block added by Project Blue, which allows to compress 16 Redstone functions on the face of one block, to control redstone signals in Bundled Cables (see Usage).

Recipe
The Control Panel can be made from many materials of Vanilla Minecarft and mods. It is only needed an hollow cover version (from Forge Microblocks) of the material. Furthermore only the Stone, Iron, Gold and Diamond Saw are usable to craft the panel. The saws from Project Red don't work. Some examples of Control Panels made from different materials are shown in Fig.1.

Usage
The Control Panel has an frontside with square sockets for the different functions, and a backside (indicated by round sockets) (shown in Fig. 2). On the backside nothing can be placed. The Panel can be placed like an Forge Microblocks Cover in many different forms (e.g. on the wall, ground, ceiling or on edges). The Bundled Cable can be connected on the side or direct on the backside of the panel. On the frontside of the Control Panel are 16 sockets which corresponding to the 16 channels (colors) in the Bundled Cable. Fig. 3 shows which channel (color) corresponds to which socket on the panel.

On these 16 sockets can be placed different functions which are provided by the mod. An example is shown in Fig. 4.
 * Miniature Lever and Colored Miniature Levers to activate a permanent redstone signal
 * Miniature Stone Button, Miniature Wooden Button and Colored Miniature Buttons to activate a short redstone signal
 * Colored Miniature Lamps to show active and inactive redstone signals
 * Miniature Wooden Planks Cover to hide unused sockets on the panel
 * With Charcoal the player can place text above and below every socket

Furthermore various functions can be performed with the Screwdriver of Project Red.
 * By right-clicking on the panel, it can be rotated in 90 ° increments counterclockwise
 * By right-clicking on an occupied socket, the function can be removed
 * By sneaking and right-clicking the panel can be flipped between frontside and backside
 * By sneaking and left-clicking the panel can be removed
