I'm new to red stone and my head feels like it's going to explode trying to read these stickies without talking to someone.
So I've made a 4x4 piston door and it's underwater acting like an air lock type deal but moving on.
the door it's self is done, I want to know how to power the door *so that it's closed all the time* and be able to turn off the power *to open it* at a push of a button, while maintaining the button signal for a few seconds and then powering the door back up to close it.
Now I know how to maintain a button signal, but I do not know how to keep the door powered, and then turn it off at the first push of the button, just to power it back up when i've walked through.

Well what I did was use a retracted piston with a Redstone block so when it received power it would turn off. My next question is how can I place the button higher and make it travel downward into the signal maintainer.

Use an inverter AKA: Not gate

i would just staircase down if i were you! but really redstone traveling up is much easier than redstone traveling down
got it working thanks!
okay next question, I'm making an underwater air lock so this is what i want to happen.
air lock is two doors, one door opens you walk in, it closes, all the way drains out and the 2nd door opens,
How do i make it so when one door is open the other is closed? and vise versa
If there is anything you need fixed or something you would like to see just let me know.
You need a xor switch and a t-flipflop. I can make a video of both for you.
