Winch Composite Interface Example

Here we run into a ready problem: Simplifying your control interfaces through the use of a microcontroller and Instrument Panel.

So why did I upload this? I figured someone out there might be looking to do the same thing I was and this example is... basic as basic gets.

Overall the layout has:

• 1 Medium Battery
  
• 6 Solar Cells
  
• 1 Main Breaker (defaults to 'on')
  
• 1 Battery Meter Microcontroller
  
• 1 Battery Charge Dial
  
• 1 Instrument Panel (Controls: Winch Length Dial, Magnet On/Off, Winch In, Winch Out)
  
• 1 Winch Composite Interface Microcontroller
  
• 1 Medium Winch w/ Electric Magnet

I'm not going to go into the specifics of how it's all rigged up. However, feel free to pick through it, pick it apart, and even use it in any of your vehicles if you so wish, just have fun, eh?
