2. Description of the system and it’s functions
2.1 The PIKO SmartMeasure Car
The attractively designed PIKO SmartMeasure Car is a piece of up-to-date model train technology! By the possibilities of that car “measuring”
becomes a completely new component of the model train hobby!
In connection with an Android Mobile Device or a computer all measured data can be displayed graphically or can be checked in detail later.
Additionally the measured values can be assigned to a specific loco in an archive, for example to check whether the maintenance cycle is
complete or not.
With these possibilities it now becomes possible to check any model railroad layout up to one centimeter exactly, no matter if you build a new
layout or if you want to check an existing layout.
When using the PIKO SmartMeasure Car on a DC track you can assign an own DCC address to the car or the car can listen to an assigned loco
address (“sniffer”).
With the cars own DCC address you can switch off the display or switch trough the displayed data via function buttons of the command station.
The “sniffer address” can listen to a locomotive, for example to check if signals are transferred properly over the layout.
