Trivia
When Signal Switch required Duplicant operation, having the change in its outputs take place immediately was its unique property and made it infamous in its use as an instant, player-controlled switch, as the player did not have to wait for a Duplicant to change its settings.
To enable the two Coal Generators (top and top left), the player moves the "Active Duration" slider (bottom right) to 100%. To disable them again, the player moves the slider back to 0%.
