clpfan30x Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Howdy! I am an undergrad engineering student looking for pictures of either Rollercoaster or general ride attraction control panels. More specifically computerized consoles....but anything is great! I am putting together a project on the design and operation of amusement control systems and would greatly appriciate any help that could be offered with photos! Please e-mail me at: ems78464@yahoo.com
Homer Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 http://www.rcdb.com/ig2586.htm?picture=10 Theres a good pic of J2's control panel. And welcome to TPR!
Twister II Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 http://www.rcdb.com/ig2166.htm?picture=4 I know that Twister II's only really has 2 buttons, dispatch and E-stop, and the stop is at the back of the station, and the dispatch is at the front.
clpfan30x Posted October 6, 2005 Author Posted October 6, 2005 Thanks so much! any others would be tremendously helpful!!!!
CoasterFanatic Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 That picture isn't the whole Tsunami panel. There are some crazy blinking lights on the right also. Here is a shot of the dispatch thingy:

tngdiablo Posted October 6, 2005 Posted October 6, 2005 Hey clpfan, I am also an engineering student and am just wondering what you are doing with this "design and operation of amusement control systems." -Juancarlos "Just curious about your work" Aponte
clpfan30x Posted October 6, 2005 Author Posted October 6, 2005 well i'll be honest, im not quite sure what im doing as far as a project is concerned yet....but i am puttin together a portfolio of the different consoles and researching how these systems are programmed and designed and built... I used to work at an amusement park where my facination with rides started....but one day i hope to be a ride designer.... thanks!
clpfan30x Posted October 19, 2005 Author Posted October 19, 2005 Just wanted to bring this topic back to the surface and see if anyone had anymore pictures?
sfmman2000 Posted July 2, 2006 Posted July 2, 2006 Here's a good thread on Roller Coaster Pro with many pictures. Be aware that some of the pictures are not available anymore. http://www.rollercoasterpro.com/forum/showthread.php?t=567
Top Thrill Dragster Posted July 2, 2006 Posted July 2, 2006 Here is TTD control panel http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/blog/index.cfm?entry=54b8829e-3ddc-465e-aff6-aad4b3cb4687
TheKlockster Posted July 2, 2006 Posted July 2, 2006 Nice! I am actually working on a rocket coaster in NL - and it needs custom panels - so now I have an idea of how to make this one!
iZak Posted July 2, 2006 Posted July 2, 2006 I posted a pic of Flashback's panel in the Flashback thread that was around here a few weeks ago... Just do a search for all of my posts, and you'll see it in there.
