5.3 Connection DR5013 with sensor tracks (S0,S1,S2,S3) and LocoNet®
This connection example shows the use of the DR5013 in conjunction with sensor tracks (S0,S1,S2,S3). With this connection, the DR5013 automatically reverses the polarity (short
-
circuit
-
free) and may be able to switch the entry/exit switch automatically on exit. LocoNet® transmits various information (Railcom® information, feedback, short
-
circuit message,
etc.) to the control centre and can be evaluated accordingly.
Functionality:
The turnout is e.g. bent: The locomotive reaches the entry detector S0. The DR5013 now knows the position of the locomotive and thus the direction in which it enters the revers-
ing loop. The DR5013 switches the polarity of the reversing loop in such a way that the polarity matches the entry. Next, sensor track 1 (S1) is approached. S1 triggers only a busy
signal via LocoNet® with the integrated occupancy detector (the polarity of the KS has already been switched from S0). If the locomotive reaches the area of the reversing loop
track, this is reported as occupied to the central station via LocoNet® with the integrated occupancy detector and can be evaluated, for example, with a control program. At the
same time, the Railcom® data of the locomotive (address, QoS messages, etc.) are read out in the entire reversing loop track (S1,S2,Track) and also reported to the central station.
The locomotive reaches sensor track 2 (S2). The DR5013 now recognizes that the locomotive is on its way to the exit of the reversing loop. The polarity of the reversing loop is
switched according to the polarity of the exit. In addition, the DR5013 can "correct" the turnout at this moment so that a smooth exit is possible. If the turnout is in a straight line,
the sequence is the same except that the order of the sensor tracks is different (S3,S2
-
> S1).
Terminal assignment:
S0
Entrance to Sensor track 1
S1
Sensor track 1
S2
Sensor track 2
S3
Entrance to sensor track 2
Track
reversing track
Necessary track separation
Here we describe which settings are to be made in the DR5013 config
tool.
Sensor track settings:
In the input fields of the sensor tracks S0, S1, S2, S3,Track (T) the feedback con-
tacts must be entered which are to be used for the respective sensor tracks. The
feedback numbers for S1,S2 and Track (T) are assigned directly in the DR5013.
For the sensor tracks S0 and S3 the feedback numbers must be entered by the
DR4088LN
-
CS which are defined there.
Turnout mode:
In this example, the settings set should be used for the switch mode. The mag-
netic article address of the turnout must be entered.
Turnout status:
Both settings are possible for the basic position of the turnout.
