Re: NX routing sensor direction


 

Mike,

NX sensors are placed at block boundaries. ?The "direction" of a NX sensor is defined by which block is being "protected".

Here is a turnout with two block boundaries.

In this example, "B-SOO-Jct is the protected block and the NX sensors are placed at the straight and diverging legs of the turnout.

Here is an example of a NX sensor at an anchor point.
Normally, signal masts will be placed at the same block boundaries. ?The signal mast logic (SML) will be generated based on the block topology. ?NX will use the SML for route selection. ?If SML has not been created, it will create internal SML at run time. ?If the NX pairs were created using "Full Interlock", then the blocks in the selected route will change to the "alternate track color".

Unused sensors can be deleted from the sensor table. ?A warning will be show if they are still being used.

I am trying to set up NX routing, but some turnouts have only one direction shown for the sensor, often the wrong one.
This could be because I'm new to JMRI and have tried and failed several times, and this seems to leave junk (sensors) in the xml file.
What in the xml file gives the direction for a sensor ?
?
Is there any way to list what route will be selected between sensors.?
