11.3. Feedback of turnout position with the ECoS
As mentioned in section 5.2.5 the current position of a turnout
can be displayed at the ECoS at any time. In our example, a turn-
out with the number 14 needs to be set up in the ECoS. Proceed
as follows:
• Go to the menu „New Solenoid Device“
• Under data format choose „DCC with RailCom®“
• Choose the desired symbol and enter the turnout number (in our
case 14)
• Now connect the solenoid device with a control panel as described
in the ECoS manual in section 13.3.
• If the current setting does not coincide with the desired setting, it
will be indicated with a small exclamation mark.
Depending on the setup of your feedback modules it might be
possible that feedback lines are switched. If you do not want to
rewire those you can simply check the box „Swap SwitchPilot
Feedback“.
If the SwitchPilot has not yet been programed for turnout num-
bers 13 – 16 you can now continue as shown in section 8.
