  • Page 2 Line FichtelBahn What is a ReadyServoTurn for? The ReadyServoTurn is an accessory decoder that is operated by the BiDiBus and pro- vides servo outputs, relay outputs and inputs for the model railway layout. Please notice: The ReadyServoTurn cannot be controlled by digital command stations that only send digital turnout commands to the accessory decoders (e.g.
