PicoVolt

Two Trigger Inputs

Record up to 85 seconds of motor or light animation per input. Connect the inputs to any standard sensor, button, or switch, and the PicoVolt will play your animation back on command.

Having the second input is especially useful for Linear Actuators. One input could be used to raise the actuator, another to lower it. It's also useful in Escape Room applications, you can set it up so one input is triggered by a sensor in the room and the other input is a hidden reset button used to reset the prop.

Of course simply looping animation for an ambient prop is still possible. If desired, the second input could be used to interrupt or pause the ambient animation. Our selection of triggers can be seen here.

LED Lighting Control

The PicoVolt also has an LED lighting mode that allows you to easily program any lighting effect. Loop the effect, or play it only when triggered.

Escape Room Friendly

The new PicoVolt is Escape Room ready. It can be setup so it only runs once per game, maybe to open a door or secret compartment when a certain puzzle is solved. The second input can be used to reset it, closing the door and allowing it to be triggered again.

If you don't need or want to worry about resetting it, you can bypass the reset input and the PicoVolt will operate in a single-shot mode. In this mode it only runs the animation once per trigger. For example, you might want some animation to run when a sensor detects an object is moved, but only once. The single-shot mode prevents looping and automatically re-arms the trigger once the object is replaced.

Input Modes

The PicoVolt has five different input modes. The modes allow you to set inputs as interruptible, to only run once, or so they work with normally-closed triggers. Some modes are good for haunt applications, some for escape rooms, and some for generic applications.

A brief description of each input mode is shown below.

• Default - Both inputs are normally-open and not interruptible.
• Input 2 Interruptible - Input 2 is interruptible by input 1.
• Inputs 1 & 2 Interruptible - Both inputs are interruptible by the other.
• Run Once with Reset - Input 1 is single-shot and can only run once until input 2 is pulsed to reset. Input 2 can be jumpered so the manual reset is not necessary.
• Run Once with Reset Normally-Closed - Same as above except for use with normally-closed sensors.

Write-Protection

The PicoVolt has a write protection mechanism that helps prevent accidental or unwanted program changes.
