<p><strong>Turnout Control</strong>
</p>
<p><strong>Turnout</strong>
</p>
<p><input name="textfield2" type="text" id="textfield2" size="8"> Enter the accessory
number or tunout system name for the accessory or turnout you wish to control. For
example, entering 678 and by pressing either the <span class="textbutton">Thrown</span>
or <span class="textbutton">closed</span> buttons,
you should be able to change the state of accessory number 678 on the layout.</p>
<p>Another example, a valid turnout system name for NCE could be NT456. Then by
pressing either the <span class="textbutton">Thrown</span> or
<span class="textbutton">closed</span> buttons, you should be able
to change the state of turnout or accessory number 456 on the layout</p>
<p>Another example, a valid turnout name could be IT123 which is internal turnout
number 123. Pressing either the <span class="textbutton">Thrown</span> or
<span class="textbutton">closed</span> buttons will only
change the state of the internal turnout and will not change a turnout on the
layout.</p>
<p><strong>current state:</strong> A turnout can have four states: &lt;unknown&gt;,
&lt;inconsistent&gt;, &lt;thrown&gt; and &lt;closed&gt;</p>
<p><strong>feedback mode:</strong> some of the available feedback modes are:
&lt;DIRECT&gt;, &lt;DELAYED&gt;, &lt;ONE SENSOR&gt;, &lt;TWO SENSOR&gt;, and
&lt;MONITORING&gt;. A turnout using DIRECT mode does not have feedback from the layout.
When a close or throw command is executed the JMRI program assumes that the command
always completes immediately. DELAYED simulates the turnout operation taking a few
seconds to complete. ONE SENSOR use one sensor on the layout to provide feedback on he
state of the turnout. TWO SENSOR uses two sensors for feedback, one for closed and one
for thrown. MONITORING gets feedback from the system by either listening to cab
commands on the layout or polling the system for turnout status.</p>
<p><strong>Caboperation:</strong> some turnouts can be locked. If the control button is
grayed out, the lock feature is not available.</p>
<p><strong>Pushbuttons:</strong> Shows state of Pushbuttons.</p>
