Hi! My name is Mikheil and I'm new to Proteus 8 and to circuits in general.
I had an idea if i could use a single push button to trigger multiple relays one by one(Meaning first click triggers the first relay and it stays triggered, second click triggers the second relay and it stays triggered and so on).(Only parts i want to use in this circuit are relays, a single push button and lamps.)
Is it possible? If it is, how?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi,
A simple, shift register can be used in your application.

 

Only parts i want to use in this circuit are relays, a single push button and lamps.

Sorry, there's no simple way to do that without some additional parts, such as the shift register that vsholding mentioned.

Edit: For example the 74C164 shift register could turn on 8 relays in sequence.
They can be easily cascaded if more relays in sequence are desired.

What happens after all the relays are energized?
What resets the circuit and turns all the relays off?

Oh, i see.. thank you for the information, but maybe polarized relays could do the work? I'm studying electric and computer engineering at the university and my lecturer told me that it may have been possible to do this task only using a single button and relays, he told me that polarized relays may be the solution to this.

Thank you for the suggestion, but still i want it to be done only by using relays. I have the same question to you, maybe polarized relays could do the work that normal relays can't?

 

this works

What are polarized relays?
Do you mean latching relays?
