+ | You can connect up to four sensors to the switch.\\ | ||
+ | The second pair is used in combination with a second motor or coil.\\ | ||
+ | The route activation will wait for the sensors, if defined. For slow motors it is recommended to use this feature to prevent running into a partially set switch.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | =====Sensors===== | ||
+ | | :!: The relation switch-sensor is a 1 to 1 relation, and position sensors cannot be shared with other objects. | | ||
+ | All sensors can be selected by combo box where all previously defined sensors are listed. | ||
+ | Select the dash " | ||
+ | The switch reports the position after receiving the right sensor events if sensors are set. This works also when the switch is set manually if the sensors are mechanically connected. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Invert==== | ||
+ | Checking this option will use the **off** sensor event. Use this if using hardware like __**[[mgv136-en|GCA136]]**__ or __**[[: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Occupancy sensors==== | ||
+ | These sensors are optional and are used for detecting electrical occupation to avoid setting this switch if one or both are high.\\ | ||
+ | This will also prevent setting the switch in manual mode.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Overwrite status==== | ||
+ | The sensor events will overwrite the current switch status and avoid red background in Rocview.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Use field events==== | ||
+ | Use field events as position acknowledgement.\\ | ||
+ | | Some Command Stations confirm commands, and this is in Rocrail defined as "Field event" | ||
+ | __Note 1:__ //This option is **useless** in case the Command Station Option " | ||
+ | __Note 2:__ //If also sensors are defined for position events, both must be confirmed to be able to set a route over this switch.// (2.1.1756+)\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Connecting sensors==== | ||
+ | How to connect the sensor to your switch is mostly explained in the user manual of your sensor module. | ||
+ | If the coil driver has end switches, it can be wired directly to the module. (opto-isolation is highly recommended) | ||
+ | Some manufacturer' | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Turnout sensors in automode==== | ||
+ | Before a train starts running all turnouts must have been set according the wanted position. The train waits until all sensors match the positions. | ||
+ | At **enter** a running train will slow down to V_mid if not all turnouts are set, and will stop at **in** if it is still not set. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Turnout sensors effect in the GUI==== | ||
+ | A turnout symbol is set after receiving the sensor event. In the case of slow or prototypical servo' | ||
+ | |||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== CTC ===== | ||
+ | These optional addresses are used to control the switch motors by CTC.\\ | ||
+ | A coil with two electromagnets is regarded as one motor.\\ | ||
+ | The setup is equal to the Sensor setup.\\ | ||
+ | For more information see also: | ||
+ | * __**[[: | ||

+ | |||
+ | ====Motor==== | ||
+ | Input(sensor) addresses for controlling the switch motors.\\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Led==== | ||
+ | Output addresses for controlling the leds on the CTC or switch panel to show the actual switch positions.\\ | ||
+ | One output is used for each motor.\\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | ==== Outputs for RGB LEDs ==== | ||
+ | {{ ctc: | ||
+ | Selection of three outputs for the control of RGB-LEDs for the illumination of the three track legs of a turnout symbol in a control panel. Color support must be activated in the properties of the outputs. \\ | ||
+ | Clicking the buttons opens a dialog for setting the color to be displayed. \\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | ===== Background Color in Rocview===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====Not set==== | ||
+ | {{switch-wiring-red-en.png}}\\ | ||
+ | The switch background is swapped to **Red** if the status does not match with the sensor report(s). | ||
+ | * See View menu -> __**[[: | ||
+ | Use __**[[: | ||
+ | ====Locked==== | ||
+ | The switch background is swapped to **Light Red**, the same color as from an occupied block, if it is locked and set. | ||
