JMRI and LogicX driving Signals #signals

 

Wanting to drive a Signal based on a decision 'to set green / red' from a LogicX - already set a sensor 'light' on the screen and switch turnouts,, looking for guidance to then set a dwarf signal.
?
unable to use turnout motor switches as there are two x three-way turnouts used.
?
If there is a write up or Youtube I would appreciate in pointer, all i have seen so far are track sensor based and switched from a single turnout motor.
?
Happy to answer any questions...
?
thanks

Randall,

What system is your layout? Like what system are you using for the turnouts? Driving a signal lamp is really the same as driving a turnout motor. At least to JMRI. Look at ‘Signal Heads’, most of those outputs are using a turnout entry to drive the lamps.

Hi Ken
?
Apologies I missed the details...
?
My System is an NCE PowerPro, and I drive the layout from JMRI, I have a ladder with 6 roads all controlled by Tortious machines.? I switch the roads to the 'main' via LogicX and display the selected load on the JMRI panel with a 'light'.? The ladder includes two x three-way turnouts.? All very successful.?
?
I do have three Arduino's running ArCoMoRa that are used to run servo's and switch the frog elsewhere on the layout.? Also very successful.
?
Further thought today says that if I set the LogicX to switch an address - and use just the relay side then that way I can switch the power to the Leds as the last step in the LocicX.??
* yet to try it!!!!
?
Any thoughts and other options most welcome.

Randall
