The AutoTalk -E2 board is similar in function with all the exact features of the original AutoTalk board developed several years ago for professional animatronic clients, in that it moves an R/C type servo in response to either an audio input signal from any standard CD player, tape recorder, sound source, but now has jumper setting for greater sensitivity in using the board from a sound source with low signal input, such as found on a digital sound chips or direct connected microphone. The board has an on-board voltage regulator for using a variety of voltage sources including the use of a battery for remote applications, a quick connector for connecting power, LED power status indicator and enhanced output to operate a standard R/C servo with greater response. The controller includes the function to set both the servo end travel points, an important feature when working with various mouth jaw sizes, the servo arm direction of travel can also be quickly changed by an on-board jumper and the sensitivity of the audio input signal through the improved on-board gain control have also been enhanced for greater response.

The top right-hand bank of input pins are the Digital sound-channels 1-8 audio playback select pins, also included the random and sequential play options as found on the sound 60 board

The other 8 banks of pin-sets along the back edge are for selecting which sound track goes to which output- jack matrix. ( remote amp and speaker )

Pin-set 1 (on the extreme left) relates to sound track 1- if you want sound track 1 to play-back through outputs 2, 6 and 8 you would put a jumper over pins 2, 6 and 8 on pin-set 1.

If you want to play sound -track 2 through outputs 1,3 and 5 then you would put jumpers over pins 1, 3 and 5 on pin-set 2 etc.

Programmable board will switch 8 different digital audio recorded signals to 1-8 different output channels.

User can program board to switch audio signal to any of 1-8 output channels. Any combination of audio out channels can be activated on and off.
Controller is easy to program and setup.
Board comes with 4 minute Audio chip on board, but can be switched to 8 or 12 minute chip upgrade option.

There is 1 audio jack input for recording 8 different sounds into the Digital sound chip directly by an audio source and 8 on board line output channels jacks to remote amps and speakers setups.

There is the standard record/playback mode jumper selection along with led indicators. Board can even be set to play random or sequence sound playback when triggered

You can adjust the play-back output select jumpers at any time- they are read just before starting any new play-back.

When the audio is combined with any of the Wizard Relay boards, the system becomes an automated audio sound effects and switcher system.

Unique servo signal controlled electronic video switching system which provides clean and fast switching between 4 video channels to 1 channel.
System allows 4 video channels to be switched to 1 master channel, by adjusting the R/C transmitter joystick, or assigning a servo signal value from any R/C PWM signal controller.

The Video switcher board will switch one of four video input signals to a buffered video output line. The Video Switcher board is suitable for all standard CCTV type video signals.

Small board approx. 2"x 4" with BNC connectors for the video and 9Vdc supply socket and servo connector.
Video Switching is done by a solid state unit using a standard 4 to 1 mux under micro processor control. The processor also measure the incoming servo pulse and determine which input to connect to the video output.

System is excellent for operating 4 different cameras, and sending video signal from one of the 4 cameras out to a remote transmitter. Put full 360 degree vision on your robot, airplane, animatronic character, or setup a covert operation with remote control.

Servo Signal
Adjusting the input signal (ie the pulse duration) will alter the video input being fed to the video output. The led by the side of the input socket will light when that particular input is live.
Input 1 is selected for pulse widths between 1.0 -1.25 msecs
Input 2 is selected for pulse widths between 1.25 - 1.5 msecs
Input 3 is selected for pulse widths between 1.5 - 1.75 msecs
Input 4 is selected for pulse widths between 1.75 - 2.0 msecs.

9 Vdc Power Supply and
Camera not included.

The Pan and Tilt module has been designed for use with miniature pcb mounted video capture cameras and lightweight small Web Cams. Using small standard hobby servos, it will allow the user to control the position of the camera in both the pan and tilt axes over a sector of approximately 130 degrees

The Pan and Tilt module provides 3 selectable modes of operation: Direct control, Stepping mode and Autonomous scan mode:

- Direct control mode such as a Web Cam drive under PC control.
- Stepping mode moves the camera head to between 2 and 8 pre-defined position.
- Autonomous scan mode where the module continuously scans a defined sector.

The module is controlled and programmed by a simple ASCII command set and may be set-up from within a simple terminal programmer such as Hyperterminal.

All adjustable operating parameters are stored in non-volatile memory so that they are retained during power down, and ready for use on power-up.

Provision is made for up to 4 "normally-closed" PIR sensor inputs. When activated, the module will automatically move to a pre-determined point, issue an RS232 format alarm signal and operate up to 2 on-board relays.

The Pan and Tilt base has been designed for use with miniature pcb mounted video capture cameras and ultra-lightweight small Web Cams.

Using two small standard hobby servos, it will allow the user to control the position of the camera in both the pan and tilt axes over a sector of approximately 130 degrees.

The unit comes ready to plug into any R/C system or Servo Controller board.

2- Servo motors mounted in base box.

The DMX video switch board will switch up to 4 composite video inputs to a single video output.

The incoming DMX data value determines which video input is routed to the output. Requires 1 channel of DMX data.

The board requires a single DMX channel and is addressable in the range 1 to 512.

DMX Values
Values 0 to 63 will switch input ch-1 to the output video 1.
Values 64 to 127, input ch-2 to the output video 1.
Values 128 to 191, input ch-3 to the output video 1.
Values 192 to 255, input ch-4 to the output video 1.
