4.5. Connecting an external on/off switch
The basic module has a connection for an external switch or an external control module
working according to the principle of switches (terminal strips 15 and 16). This allows, for
example, to integrate the staging yard into a block-control management.
As long as the switch is closed (= IN connected to earth), the departure of trains from the
sidings is blocked, regardless of the set operation mode. After the switching contact has been
opened, the departure of that train is released which was blocked first. Further switching
pulses which were released while the switch was closed, will be rejected.
4.6. Connecting external exit buttons and status LEDs
In addition to the buttons and LEDs on the modules, you can connect to each module
2 external buttons for manually triggering the exit of trains and/or
2 red and 2 green LEDs each as indicators "free" / "occupied".
You can integrate the external buttons and LEDs e.g. into a track diagram control panel.
