Re: IR Block Occupancy Sensors - Entrance and Exit
John P, You would basically using a zero resistor on the wheel sets. If I was doing something like that, I'd likely go the route of normal detection (usually a 10k resistor) and put a DCC signal on

Re: IR Block Occupancy Sensors - Entrance and Exit
Ken Thank you again, all you do appreciated. I was being slightly provocative. My ambition is to build a dead rail system with RC control of DCC locos, then I could divide the tracks up into blocks

Re: IR Block Occupancy Sensors - Entrance and Exit
John P, You are correct. Real world signal systems tend to have someone around in charge. So things like a reverse move would be known and effectively the system is told that's what is going on.

Hello @ all! This morning I tested live via Ethernet: Mega <=> Pc. Same result between 5 & 6 to identify the locomotive. I have good results in ping: <1ms I tested with arduino sketch my shield

Re: IR Block Occupancy Sensors - Entrance and Exit
Ken In my experience of NX real world systems, stopping and reversing would be two separate moves set up by the signal control system ( signalman ) so trying to work out which way the train sets off

Re: JMRI for dispatching
Thanks for the reply. No, JMRI will not be sensing the layout, and I understand the concept of the simulator interface. It's just that I'm getting confused with Logix etc, and am looking for some

Re: DECODERPRO VERY LONG IDENTIFICATION TIME
Good evening Jim, So I just re-check everything, I switched to fixed IP on the Mega and the PC, then in DHCP on the Mega and the PC ... Same result 5 to 6 minutes to identify a locomotive. Next test:

Re: Turnouts
Why use any toggle switches to set turnouts at all? . Touch or mechanical). You are relying on being able to clearly see (or know) all the relevant turnout settings immediately prior. Which is not

Re: JMRI for dispatching
John, When you say 'not connected', do you mean to develop a panel or for the operating it? If the later, then you are using it like a big magnet board. You can use 'markers' with the train id and
