Märklin turntable, WDP and CS

[Kaj Nielsen]

Hello to all WDP-users,
has anybody found a way to program the märklin digital turntable when using märklin central station and WDP ?

[Ralf Krapp]

Hello Kaj,
it's not possible to program a turntable with the Märklin Central Station at the moment. The  software which is necessary to do so is still not available. Sorry, but you have to wait till Märklin will announce a software-update for the Central Station to program a turntable. As long as the Central Station ist not able to work automatically with a turntable WDP cannot send data to the Central Station for moving the turntable bridge.
But there might be a possibility to execute a move step by step when using the address of each rail. Same way like to switch a turnout.
I hope, you will soon have a better information and solution.

Hello Ralf,
Thank You very much for your answer, I have gone through (almost) all possible combinations of "Märklin Drehscheibe", "WinDigiPet" and "Central Station" on the internet - and WDP panels - without results, so I suspected the outcome.
For the time beeing I use IB only for the turntable, it is an expensive solution, but on the other hand, Märklin is not known for doing something fast, even if their customers are missing the "item" (mfx-booster, update on the CS, follow their own time-table on new trains etc.)
