Switching question
« am: 24. Januar 2012, 15:41:12 »
Hello to all

I am new to the forum and just starting in digital, although I have a long history with analog railroading.  My question concerns what we call "switching" in the USA, maybe Rangierbewegung?  Using ZFA, I set up a simple maneuver summarized as position A>position B, B>A, A>C.  The problem is that WDP executes A>B, B>A, A>B, B>A....until I shut it off.  From the various diagnostics, it seems ZFA totally ignores the command line A>C and just returns to A>B.  The simulation does exactly the same as the actual railroad.  I have tried many variations and always get the same result.

What have I missed?  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Hello Mr. Hahnwald,

now you have found the right place to ask all folks ( and not using a PN to me)

OK, you need a condition with a virtual solenoid device. ( see manual)

For example : switch the route from A > B only if the vitual solenoid device is green otherwise switch the route from A > C.
Simple set this solenoid device inside the Tour automatic red or green. From A > B set it to red ! And so on

Understand ?

regards
