The concept is simple...I just don't know how to do one connection.

The puppet walks up to safe. That turns on the ability to control the door. You press "Square" and the door opens.

I have the area sensor in place. It's connected to the power of the Controller sensor (I keep wanting to call it a controllinator).

The hinge with a motor bolt is in place. I have the limits turned on and set. That all works fine.

What I can't figure out is what the replaced the "action" with. In LBP, you could switch the action from back and forth, one direction, in and our, etc. But I can't find this option on the new version of bolts.

What do I need to wire the Square button to, to make the door open. I know I'd need to hold down the square as I have it wired right now. Don't worry about permanent switches and the like, I think I got that. I'm just focusing on the basic action right now and I'll add the more complex logic later.

I also keep getting to the point where it almost works, but the door wants to start in the open (largest angle) position as soon as it has power then close to the closed position (tightest angle). I can't figure out how to reverse the bolt action.

If anyone can give me the 101 on how to wire the basic up to make it happen, I'd appreciate it.
