DR5000 which protocol?

 
Edited

I am currently using a Sprog 3 to control Locos and turnouts (CML DAC20) via JMRI.

?

If I wish to change my controller to a DR5000 and upgrade to block detection later Digitrax BDL168 I would like to know the following:

?

1)???? As the CML DAC20 controls the turnout using track command S1 (Address 45), S2 (Address 46) Thrown/Closed etc. Which connection protocol do I use to send the commands via the Track connection to the CML DAC20 accessory decoder? I am assuming it would be COM(x) Xpressnet protocol. Note: I do not want to use LocoNet at this time.

?

2)???? At a later stage if adding detection using non Digikeijs products does the DR5000 provide LocoNet termination for the BD168 and CML DAC20 plus Railcom RailSync signal for the BDL168?

?

Hi Colin,

I don't know about your other questions, but BDL168 does not support Railcom (BDL168 supports transponding which is different). If you want Railcom you will need Digikeijs DR5088RC

Sorry all, I should have typed RailSync not railcom!

Colin,

The DR5000 will terminate the LocoNet.? Both devices will need to be plugged into the LocoNet B for the RailSync.??
