Feedback with RailCom
RailCom is a log for bi-directional communication in digital model
railway layouts controlled in DCC-format. It allows e.g. the feedback of
the address and the CV values from the decoder to the digital control
unit or to special receivers (so-called detectors). The decoders must be
designed to send the RailCom messages.
The LD-G-33 / LD-W-33 sends (continuously) the (basic, extended or
consist) address to the detectors (so-called RailCom broadcast datagramm)
and transfers a CV message after a DCC CV read-out command.
Sending RailCom messages is only possible in layouts with a DCC signal on
the rails. That is the reason why it is not possible to use the RailCom-
function in a pure Motorola environment, but only when at least one other
locomotive or function decoder on the layout is controlled in DCC format.
