Re: Spacing between NCE BD20 detectors
Bill, I don¡¯t know all of the in¡¯s and out¡¯s of your layout. NCE has an article on their website that discusses a BD20 detection challenge that reads similar to yours at this link,

Re: Spacing between NCE BD20 detectors
Allan, I've tried a variety of "winding" strategies, but without success.? When I talked with NCE's technical support fellow the other day, he was pretty skeptical about the feasibility of 25'

Re: Spacing between NCE BD20 detectors
Hi Bill, If you haven't tried it already, try putting more than one turn through your BD20.? Literally just loop it around and go through it again.? This increases sensitivity of the BD20.? I don't

Spacing between NCE BD20 detectors
I want to keep my Atlas signal blocks coterminous with my railroad's four power districts, each of which is approximately 25 feet in length.? Initial experimentation indicates that placing one NCE

Re: Relay
If you have a balloon or a wye, you will have a reversing section.? One way to effect the polarity change for these tracks is to use a relay attached to the switch machine at the throat of a balloon

Relay
What is a "throat" controlled relay? I did a Google search of the net and could not find an answer. Thanks Don

Re: Peco Crossover
Since you said that you swapped the wires to the Tortoise 2 and 3 pins and you got the same result tells me that something is wired wrong.? You can troubleshooting with your DCC power, but it might

Re: Reversing
Provide a human operator to watch the loco as it gets near the end of your test track and press the appropriate buttons on the DCC throttle to slow down, stop, pause(?), start up again in the opposite

Re: Reversing
The NCE product called the Mini-Panel should do the trick.? You will need a couple of trip sensors for each stop point.? You can use the NCE BD-20 block detectors or you can use an optical sensor

I rebuilt one of my single crossovers using peco unifrog turnouts.? The switch machine is a tortise and the controller is a digitrax ds 64.? After installing the cross over, I test ran several
