Connecting points
In ordert to connect points you have to connect an additional bistable
relay according to fig. 3. The bistable relay switches on the power
supply for the one rail in terminus station 2 while switching off the
power supply for the other rail. If no bistabile relay is connected both
rails are constantly supplied with power.
Emergency stop at a terminus station
If the locomotive does not accept the impulse for changing the direction
at the terminus station, it goes on into the wrong direction. To prevent
accidents it is recommended to interrupt the middle conductor at the
point the train should not cross.
Operation
First operation and starting of new locomotives
On principle it is not possible for the shuttle-train control to set absolute
directions of motion ("way there" / "way back") for the locomotives.
When a train reaches a terminus station the module sends the impulse
for changing the actually set direction. Therefore you should keep to
the following when first starting the shuttle-train control or new
locomotives:
The train must start at a stop (not at a terminus station) or on a free
section. Depending on the position of the switching relay it goes into
the direction "there" or "back". If the train is standing at a terminus
station when first starting, it cannot be ruled out that it runs in the
wrong direction against the buffer.
If you want to integrate a second train into the shuttle-train service it
has to be set onto the switched-off rail in terminus-station 2 with
direction "terminus station 1" set.
