Thanks Ken.
When I watch the sensor table the sensor goes active for a few seconds then
inactive. I set the active track color to red and that goes on for a few
seconds then inactive. If I stop and Idle a locomotive on a block it still
goes inactive after the delay set sensor message.
The system is also sending an extremely large amount of status requests to
the AIU. Most are coming back 3FFF, until a sensor trip then the numbers
change.
Could my Logix Setup Be at fault, there don't seem to be many hardware
options on the AIU or the BD20's but the documentation for them is a bit
thin. J

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.
