Always make sure you connect from the trigger device (like a pressure pad) to the logic circuit. Then from the logic circuit to whatever you want to control (like a light or a door).

Below is the listing of each mode and what it means.
1: And = All inputs must be "True" for the LC to be "True"
2: Or = At least 1 input must be "True" for the LC to be "True"
3: Not = LC is True by default and any input makes it "False"
4: NAND = Not And, so the opposite of And
5: NOR = Not Or, so the opposite of OR
6: XOR = If 1 input is "True" the LC is True, but if both are True then LC is False
7: "=" (Equals) = Same as OR
