Lectern Serial Interface Basics

The Lectern Serial Interface lets your TIS-3D computer read which page a player is viewing and even change the page programmatically. This is useful for creating interactive displays or automated book systems.

Setup

1. Place a Lectern adjacent to your TIS-3D computer.

2. Install a Serial Interface module and connect it to the lectern.

3. Place a written book in the lectern.

Reading and Writing Page Data

  • Read current page: Query the interface to get the page number the lectern is currently displaying.
  • Read total pages: Determine how many pages the book contains.
  • Set page number: Write a page number to the interface to change which page is displayed.

Practical Applications

  • Create interactive menus where players navigate using TIS-3D logic
  • Display different information based on system state
  • Build automated tutorials or guided experiences
  • Synchronize lectern displays across multiple locations
  • Track player progress through multi-page books

This opens up creative possibilities for combining TIS-3D automation with readable in-game content.
