Author Topic: Showman IV automation terminal assignment/ circuit diagram Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 03-27-2006 03:09 AM                        Does anyone have that information or a manual? It is a very simple automation with just a few relays and what looks like a timing device, so it should be not a big problem to figure out how it works, but if anyone has a manual and/or terminal assignment list, that would save me some time. Also, does anyone know what exactly the timing device is and how it works?  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

The only timer is a cam timer 1 or 2 rpm. I haven't seen one in a long time. Maybe Gordon has a set of drawings?
