Usages[edit | edit source]

Placement[edit | edit source]

The interface of a display link with a Target as a source and a Lectern as an output.

First, use the display link on a Display Block to link it. Then place it on the Source Block that will be read from. Though it will link to any block, not every block can act as a display or source. Display links have a range of 64 blocks (Configurable.)

To change or reestablish a link to a display block, break the display link and repeat the placement process.

Interface[edit | edit source]

Right click the link to access its interface. Additional labels can be added to the output text through this interface. Some sources provide multiple options for formatting the text. Once the interface settings are accepted, the green light on the display link will start blinking, indicating transmission of information to the display blocks.

Display Blocks[edit | edit source]

Blocks the Display Link can write to.

The link can be paused by applying a Redstone signal to the display link. The display blocks will freeze with the last transmitted information until the link is un-paused by removing the redstone signal.

Blocks the Display Link can read from.

Examples of Use[edit | edit source]

The display link can be used with a brass tunnel as a counter. Right-click the display sign or other valid output then the tunnel to place. Items that pass through the tunnel will be counted and added to the total. In combination with train observer, the link can display the name of the train the observer is reading.
