+===== Setup =====
+| Rocrail library name: __**XNET**__ | \\
+{{:xpressnet-en.png}}\\
+ \\
+==== Hostname/Port ====
+Only for the LI-ETH and XnTcp sub library.\\
+The hostname must be a TCP/IP address or a solvable DNS name.\\
+ \\
+====CTS Flow & LI-USB====
+The LI-USB manual says to use no hardware handshake, but if buffer overflows are encountered or unexpected communication errors it is recommended to set this to CTS.\\
+Uncheck the handshake if the no communication is possible.\\
+\\
+==== Type ====
+^ Product ^ Type ^ SubLib ^ Remark ^ Tested ^
+| <del>Lenz LI100</del> | LI101F | default | RS232 Interface | **Sensors are not reported!** \\ Not supported. |
+| Lenz LI101*, [[:mgv139-en|GCA139]] | LI101F | default | RS232 Interface | OK |
+| Lenz LI-USB², [[http://www.digital-plus.de/digitalplus-pc-router.php|Lenz interface 23151]] | LI-USB | usb | USB, without handshake.¹ | OK |
+| [[http://www.opendcc.de/|OpenDCC]] | OpenDCC | opendcc | USB | OK |
+| [[http://www.terdina.net/rails/|XnTcp]] | XnTcp | xntcp | TCP/IP [[http://forum.rocrail.net/viewtopic.php?t=4368&start=30|(Not usable for time critical communication.)]] | OK |
+| Hornby Elite | Elite | elite | USB | OK |
+| CtTran | CtTran | cttran | Same implementation as 'default'. | OK |

+| S88XPressNetLi-USB | LI101F | default | Baudrate: 9600. RoSoft | OK |
+¹) Depends on the device driver and operating system; Runs well with activated handshake under Mac OS X Lion.\\
+²) Replaced by Lenz interface 23151.\\
+ \\
+ \\
+=====LZV200=====
+Type: **Li-USB**\\
+====CTS====
+The LZV200 does not support CTS handshake, and must be turned off.\\
+====Firmware====
+The firmware of the LZV200 must be at least 3.8.\\
+ \\
+=====Options=====
+====Power on at startup====
+The default startup power state is off. You can change this behavior by checking this option.
+ \\
+==== Fastclock ====
+Some  XpressNet Command Stations, like [[:opendcc-en|OpenDCC]], are supporting the fast clock operation.\\
+Check this if Rocrail should send this command every layout minute.\\
+ \\
+==== Power on state for accessory commands ====
+The LZV only have a small buffer for stacking accessory commands at power off. It will reply with "Busy" messages if there is no more room for more commands.\\
+Check the position of all switches after power off on a ghost train event in automatic mode before turning power back on.\\
+ \\
+==== V2 ====
+| __Locomotive address is in the range 0 to 99.__ |\\
+Support for  XpressNet **Version 2.x** Loco commands:
+  * Lenz LZ100 **V2.3**
+  * Arnold Central Control 82200
+ \\
+==== Switch time ====
+Time in milliseconds between on/off.\\
+__100ms are recommended.__\\
+ \\
+=====Sensor adressing=====
+Sensor addressing in Rocrail is always flat while in XpressNet it is module based. Therefore the following calculation is needed: \\
+^ Rocrail address = ( XpressNet address - 1) * 8 + port - 1 ^ \\
+Where the XpressNet address is the address of the module in the range of [1..128] and port refering to the input connector [1..8] of the module. \\
+ \\
+Addresses for feedback tasks in XpressNet are located from 1 to 128. Moreover the feedback address area is subdivided into two areas:
+  * Address 1 to 64 is reserved __for turnout decoders with feedback function__
+  * Address 65 to 128 is __for sensors like occupancy detectors__
+Thus, the first sensor module has address 65 in XpressNet and the address of the first sensor of the first module in Rocrail is 512!
+===Example===
+^  XpressNet \\ address ^ Ports \\ from..to ^ Rocrail address \\ from..to ^
+|  1  | 1..8 | 0..7 |
+|  2  | 1..8 | 8..15 |
+|  ...  |||
+|  64  | 1..8 | 504..511 |
+|  **65**  | **1..8** | **512..519** |
+|  66  | 1..8 | 520..527 |\\
+... \\
+and so on ...
+ \\
+=====Accessory Decoder Address=====
+You can set up the address in Rocrail style, or else in the more cool **[[addressing-en#port_accessory_decoder_address_pada|PADA]]** Style. In this way the address of the decoder will match with the address in your LH* handheld.\\
+ \\
+e.g. ExpressNet decoder address 12 = Rocrail Address 0 Port 9 (in the Interface tab for the Properties of turnouts/switch)
+=====Polling throttles=====
+To activate polling throttles for updating Rocrail clients this option can be set for each induvidual loco: **[[:loc-int-en#poll_info|Poll info]]**.
+ \\
+=====Mobile Decoders=====
+====Speed steps====
+Supported __**[[:loc-int-en#decoder_steps|Speed Steps]]**__:
+  * 14
+  * 28
+  * 127
