3.3 Turnout mode

If the last Power2 of a chain of Power2's in analog mode has been
configured (check Power2 manual) for control of digital turnouts, it can
be used to control up to 1024 digital turnouts (of which, of course, only
the first 256 will be controllable through the DAISY throttle).
Attention
Only DCC turnout decoders (DCC accessory decoders) are supported.
3.3.1 How to control a turnout or a signal
Press the [Turnout] key to switch from drive to turnout mode.
While in turnout mode, you can use the f1 through f4 keys to toggle the
status of a turnout or signal. The four LEDs above the f1 through f4
keys show the current turnout or signal status: red (thrown) or green
(closed).
The fact that the 4 LEDs indicate a 'red' or 'green' status – as opposed
to 'yellow' or off – can be used to tell the mode (turnout or drive) in
which the DAISY throttle is currently operating.
Each closure of the [f1] through [f4] keys will be shown on the DAISY
display: the accessory address which has been toggled will be shown
as long as the key remains pressed. For example, the display will show:
W
(The first symbol represents the letter "W", to indicate "Weiche" the
German word for turnout).
While in turnout mode, the currently selected locomotive can still be
controlled through the rotary encoder.- Furthermore, the [function] and
[Off] keys can still be used for electric circuit coupling.
3.3.2 How to change the controlled turnout address range
The DAISY default is to have the keys [f1] through [f4] control turnout
addresses 1 through 4. However, this can be changed.
first one. As you do this, the target electric circuit will get the same
configuration as the first one: locomotive speed and additional
parameters (such as: acceleration delay) will be identical
