Triple Foam Timer

I don't think there is a way, but I figured I would ask the question, can this triple foam timer be used to cycle multiple colors at one time? I know there are a few operators out there that have used a small PLC for controlling multiple colors, but can it be done on a unit like that? I would prefer to not have to hassle with a PLC or similar device if it's not necessary.

Thanks in advance.
 
Most systems that use a PLC are not really doing anything more than that controller can do. The only real difference between that one and the program I wrote for a PLC is that mine overlaps and gives six distinct colors instead of three.
 
I see. So essentially there isn't much that can be done to that Ginsan timer to get it to dispense the six colors you're talking about?
 
I offered previously to program a PLC for you - they're very reliable and less expensive than the GinSan device by about $30. If you order one and have them ship it directly to me, I'll upload the program and drop it in the mail to you. Or if you like you can order a PLC and a programming cable and I'll e-mail you the software and my program to upload to the unit.
 
Excellent! I vaguely remember you offering that. I would really appreciate it! Will you PM the website and your address so I can get one sent over to you? The great thing is that I already have most of the components, I just need the controller!

Thanks!
