Setup

Interface ID

If more than one command station is used, then the command station that is responsible for controlling the decoder is specified in this field. The "Interface identifier" field can remain empty if the object is connected to the first command station (first 'digint' in rocrail.ini) from the list of command stations.

Node ID

See: Addressing

UID-Name

Alternative to the Bus number supported by:

  • BiDiB (String: Username)
  • RocNet

Protocol

This is Decoder and Command System dependent.

Extended DCC

The Param ON/OFF are used for the aspect value.
Supported Command Stations:

  • Z21

Topic

See @Home

Address, Port and Gate

Addressing of accessories is described in the Practical Guide.

Single gate

To control just one color LED in a NeoPixel the gate selection, Single gate and Color option can be used.
The output type must be set to LED.
The settings for brightness, delay and flashing are applied to all LEDs, the brightness can be adjusted in the Color tab.
Supported decoders:

  • WIO

Parameter

Some systems support an extra parameter for outputs:

  • Dinamo (OM32 type, level=1…15)
  • BiDiB with blink option activated (Type=Lights, range 1…9)
    1. BIDIB_PORT_TURN_ON
    2. BIDIB_PORT_DIMM_OFF
    3. BIDIB_PORT_DIMM_ON
    4. BIDIB_PORT_TURN_ON_NEON
    5. BIDIB_PORT_BLINK_A
    6. BIDIB_PORT_BLINK_B
    7. BIDIB_PORT_FLASH_A
    8. BIDIB_PORT_FLASH_B
    9. BIDIB_PORT_DOUBLE_FLASH
  • BiDiB servo: param=straight, value=thrown position
  • HUE hue value=0…65535
  • DCC++ IFLAG
  • WIO

The OFF parameter is used for:

  • BiDiB lights. (For example 2: BIDIB_PORT_DIMM_OFF)
  • WIO Servo and other targets.

The button opens the setting dialog for angle or PWM values for the "Servo" type. See also option Native

Value

Port value for the "on" command.
For digital outputs it should be set to 1.
Analog outputs are supported in:

  • BiDiB
  • SRCP
  • HUE
  • RocNetNode Pi03
  • WIO

Setting the value (Brightness Level) to "0" means that the output will never turn on in SRCP. A value of 4095 is full brightness for 12 bit LED controllers.

Delay

The delayed off timer in seconds if set to greater then zero.
For Type Toggle switch only.


Options

Switch

Switch commands are sent instead of output commands when this option is set.

Invert

This option swap the on/off command.

Send a blink command at ON.

  • Dinamo OM32
  • BiDiB port type "Lights"
  • HUE alert effect

Color

Color support.

  • HUE
  • DMX
  • RocNetNode Pi03 Channel bundling

Panel Color

Changes the panel background color on the fly if this the color option is also set.
Note: It is recommended to use this option only for one single output in the plan to prevent unwanted effects.

Native

Use native values for type servo.
Default is 0…180°, with this option 500…2500 PWM width.
Supported controllers:

  • WIOesp


Accessory

Some systems, like BiDiB, differentiate between accessory and other command types.
For most other systems this flag has no effect.

  • Xpressnet: After 10ms the output will be automatically set to OFF.
  • DCC++: A DCC Switch command is send instead of activating an output pin on the Arduino board.


Type

Port type selection.
Some decoders, like BiDiB-LightControl and RocNetNode, provide different port types on the same local address.

Function

A mobile decoder function. The port is the function number.
