2. Your staging yard control HADES
HADES supervises and controls the activities in a staging yard with
2 to 32 sidings
and one transit track
or a stopping section at the entrance to the staging yard.
2.1. Possible applications
HADES works independently from the rest of the layout control system and can therefore be
used in analogue DC or AC layouts as well as in all digital layouts.
In principle, HADES is suitable for all nominal sizes. The maximum switching current of the
relays that switch the track voltage for the sidings is 3 A. Therefore, the maximum current of
a train in a siding must not exceed 3 A.
HADES has a connection for an external on/off switch that switches to ground. As long as this
switch is closed, it is impossible to trigger a train exit from one of the sidings. This makes it
possible, for example, to integrate the staging yard controlled by HADES into a block station
control.
2.2. Components
HADES has a modular structure and consists of
a basic module for monitoring and controlling 2 sidings as well as a transit track or a
stopping section at the entrance to the staging yard,
additionally up to 15 track modules for two further sidings each. The last track module can
be configured to monitor and control only one siding.
Basic and track modules are connected to each other via patch cables.
