Martin,
Yes there are two sensor messages, one for 'sensor on' and then when leaving
the block 'sensor off'. Now if you watch the sensor table you should see the
sensor stay on while the loco is in the block. And if your block has the
sensor listed it should also show the block on the panel. BUT the default
colors for 'active, inactive, alternate' in a block are all black. At least
it was, the default colors may have changed but unless you check and make
sure you have different colors, you won't see if on the panel.
