How to Set Up and Customize a Modular Control Panel
Dashpanels replaces messy redstone setups by combining your inputs and outputs into a single block hub.
Attaching Modules to the Panel
1. Place down a Control Panel in your desired control room or workshop area.
2. Ensure your inventory contains the redstone modules you wish to install, such as bulbs, levers, or knobs.
3. Empty your main hand completely.
4. Shift + Right-click the Control Panel with an empty hand. This opens the panel interface or automatically draws modules from your inventory to attach them directly to the face of the block.
5. Interact with the attached levers and knobs directly on the panel face to trigger signals without placing individual redstone components across your floor.
Color-Coding Your System
To make complex networks easier to read at a glance, organize your setup using dye:
- You can dye bulb modules in many different colors before or during installation.
- Use distinct colors to denote specific functions—such as red for locked doors, green for active machinery, or yellow for low reserves—keeping your switches distinct and easily identifiable.
