use your imagination

I don't think it hooks up to a computer.
This was the old switchboard to a planetarium.

>>52439332
get a pie and connect it to it

>>52439366
But then what?
>>
>>52439192
switch things up.

Teledildonics. It's the only way.

I'm sorry for being so vague, here's something more elaborate;

>The situation
You have an interface. You have (might have) a pi/arduino device. You'll want to connect them together, but you do not know what wire goes where.

>What you'll have to do
You'll have to reverse engineer (figure out) what the whole thing does, how it works, what goes where, etc. You'll have to figure out what each pin does, or what each combination of pin does, etc.

Flicking a switch will probably output something on a pin (or multiple pins), which you can parse through something like the pi/arduino to base actions on the output you're getting.

You can reverse engineer this sorta stuff in numerous ways, but I won't explain them here. Google around on 'reverse engineering electronics' or ask >>>/diy/

Good luck!

No.

Set it up to change various lights.

Do like my uncle did and make a model train track in your basement.

Make it a control station.
