Automated Kiln Operation?

[Sigma]

What do I need to feed it to work? Do I need to hook a treadmill? If so how do I accomplish that? Tried everything. Not much out there on this one yet.

One of the tutorials is about running an automated ore operation. A treadmill is required and, according to the tutorial, you need to use power lines to attach the treadmill to the kiln. Problem is, I can't find any way of creating the power lines.

use inserters to get the wood into the two little boxes on the back of the kiln that have arrows going in. Probably the easiest way is to have a wooden log depot with two exit points one space away. Inserters pick up from the depot, put it into the kiln. You also need another inserter to take the charcoal out.
With multiple kilns, i usually just have a few automated groves output (using more inserters) to conveyor belt, then have the inserters pick them up off the belt down the line and put them into the kilns.
I hope that helped. I still haven't bothered to figure out how to put screenshots here, but I will if you need.
As far as I know, it doesn't need power yet.

Yes, what nemabetza said is pretty accurate.
Keep in mind that this part of the game is still work in progress, therefore things like power requirements are not implemented yet and you can also run into issues like items getting stuck on conveyor belts. But I'll work on that soon. :)
