The sensor will be connected with the real sensor on the track. Sensor – The sensor is red, when is activated and it is green, when is deactivated. Track with the sensor – The sensor is red, when is activated and it is green, when is deactivated. Table1: Explanation of the used elements for creating design layout List of used elements with explanation is in the table 1. Each element can be inserted into layout by drag and drop. Picture 11: Control the locomotive Creating the first design layout of the model railway and setting the feedbackįor creating the design layout of the model railroad we switch into design mode of the program by top menu Track plan->Edit panel. This speed is used for the automatic control in the next steps. At the end we should set right Speedof the locomotive on the right part of the window. We insert the DCC address of the locomotive into field Adress, I inserted 5. We should see the name of the command station, which we named XNET in steps before. On the next tab – Interface(picture 10) – we select the interface ID from the list. We should see the name of the command station, which we named XNET in steps before. On the same tab, we can add the picture of the train and insert more details about locomotive, but this is not necessary for the control of the locomotive. We will change the ID of the train from NEW to some own name, for example Lokomotiva. In the new opened window press the button Newand select the tab General(picture 9). We can do it in the top menu Tables->Locomotives… (picture 8). Manual control of the locomotiveįor control the locomotive, it is necessary add the locomotive into the locomotive list in the program. In opposite case some rectangles can be red. If the DCC signal is not stopped and the automatic control is started, all of the rectangles should be green. In the right bottom corner are a few rectangles which is signaling the state of the program. We woun’t need know the other controls for our examples. The button next to is for start automatic control. The first is button for start and stop DCC signal, which is located on the top icon bar as the seventh button from the left. Main control of the programīefore we start using this program, it is necessary know at least a few basic controls. This is the normal situation when the program is launched and closed. It means, that RocRail stopped the DCC signal on rails. You can see the flashing status LED on the TCS command station. If everything is ok, after the program is launched, we can see the first communication between RocRail and command station. Picture 7: Details of the XpressNet controllerįor the apply the all changes, it is again neccessary close the program (both windows) and launch again in the right order.
