Sensor Kits and Cards

Sensor Kits are one-time use items used to link a machine to a Sensor Card. Once a kit is used on a block, it yields a card encoded with that block's coordinates.

Kit Name Target Block Resulting Card
Remote Sensor Kit Nuclear Reactor / Chamber Reactor Sensor Card
Energy Sensor Kit MFE, MFSU, CESU, BatBox Energy Sensor Card
Liquid Sensor Kit IC2 Tanks, Railcraft Tanks Liquid Sensor Card
Energy Array Sensor Kit Multiple Energy Blocks Energy Array Card

Card Types

  • Reactor Sensor Card: Displays current heat, maximum heat, and the reactor's On/Off status.
  • Energy Sensor Card: Displays current EU stored, maximum capacity, and the fill percentage.
  • Liquid Sensor Card: Displays the amount of fluid (mB) and the type of fluid in a tank.
  • Text Card: A manual card where players can type custom messages to appear on Information Panels.
  • Time Card: Displays the current Minecraft world time (Digital or Analog format).
  • Counter Sensor Card: Used with the Average Counter block to track EU/tick flow over time.

Mechanics and Automation

The Monitoring Loop

To set up a basic automated safety system, follow these steps: 1. Place a Thermal Monitor against your Nuclear Reactor. 2. Set the threshold to a safe level (e.g., 2000 degrees). 3. Run a redstone wire from the Thermal Monitor to the reactor itself (or a toggle latch). When the heat hits 2000, the monitor will emit redstone, turning the reactor off. 4. Use a Remote Sensor Kit on the reactor to get a Reactor Sensor Card. 5. Place an Industrial Information Panel in your control room and insert the card. 6. If the panel is too far away, place the card in a Remote Sensor Station near the reactor and put Range Upgrades in the panel.

Energy Array Monitoring

The Energy Array Sensor Kit allows for the monitoring of up to 6 energy storage blocks simultaneously. By clicking multiple blocks with the kit before crafting the card, the Information Panel will display the aggregate energy of the entire power bank.
