TrainController Gold and Silver - Freiwald Software

• Insert a block, which represents the bridge of the turntable, into the now custom
block diagram.
• Link the block to the turntable according to Diagram 179.
• Insert a block for each adjacent track section connected to the turntable (e.g. for
each track in a roundhouse) into the custom block diagram.
• Connect the block, which represents the bridge of the turntable, with all blocks,
which represent the adjacent tracks, by routes in the custom block diagram. After
doing this each route corresponds to a track exit of the turntable.
Diagram 179: Linking a block to a Turntable
• Add an appropriate operation to each route, which moves the bridge to the track exit,
which is associated with this route (see section 14.4, “Operations”). This operation
must be added directly to the route, i.e. not indirectly as part of a macro or similar.
Several operations are available. It is for example possible to turn the bridge always
on the shortest way to the destination track, if the direction, in which locomotives
leave the bridge, does not matter. It is also possible to turn the bridge to the
destination track in a way, that all locomotives will leave the train in backward direction
(see Diagram 180).
