Blocking Station Tracks with a switch

[Hwnel]

Hello All,

I have a 6-track station and would like to block each station track separately with a switch for each track.  Each station track has four feedback contacts and four ZNF's with the same feedback contact numbers. 

So far, I have set up a virtual switch(K84) that will prevent a train from leaving a station track using the tour automatic.  Switch must be set to 'green' for the route to be allowed.  This works fine.

This does not prevent a train from entering a station track if it is unoccupied though.  How can I realize this?

Afterthought:  Do I need to put the switch in each of the routes in the station or going into the station?

Thanks for any help.

Hi Elliott,

do you use the ZFA (Zugfahrtenautomatik = train ride automatic?)? If you do then you can set the switch as a condition for a route or train ride. Other possibility: you can assign each switch a virtual feedback contact. You add this virtual contact to your route that enters the track as an additional condition.

Greetings from Florida!

Hello Stefan,

Thanks for your response,  I was able to get it to work by assigning a virtual feedback contact to the switches I had already set up, and incorporated those into the conditions for the route(s) to the station tracks.  I guess the same as you described.  Thanks for your efforts.

Are you enjoying Florida?

Aloha,

Elliott

Hello Elliott,

yes, that's exactly one of my proposals. Nice it works!
