Dave,

Setting the conditions of the test as you state if:
1. turnouts configured in Monitoring or One Sensor Mode, the state in the turnout xml table tends to match the physical state - or at least matches the state when system was turned off.
2. turnouts configured in Direct Mode tend to show up as Thrown regardless of their true physical state. Clicking on the turnout icon changes the state to the actual state. Clicking a second time changes the state.?

I made a video of the test under condition two but this system says the file is too big to send as an attachment.
