<h1>Adding/Editing Turnouts</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>When adding a Turnout, from the "System connection:" drop down list select the hardware
|
|
connection this Turnout is attached to.</p>
|
|
<img src="images/AddTurnout.png" alt="add turnout dialog">
|
|
<p>Enter a valid Hardware Address for the Turnout (look at the <a href=
|
|
"../../../../html/doc/Technical/Names.shtml#entrysummary">Tooltip</a> for accepted input
|
|
options per system). If desired, enter a User Name which can be anything you wish to describe
|
|
the Turnout.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>One of the newer options for the System, <a href=
|
|
"../../../../html/hardware/can/cbus/index.shtml">MERG</a>, let's the user optionally use 2
|
|
CBUS event values for each Turnout added (either discovered automatically or entered manually
|
|
as <code>-x;+y</code>).</p>
|
|

|
<h2>Creating a number of Turnouts</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>It is also possible to create a number of Turnouts in one go.<br>
|
|
Where supported, the "Add a sequential range" check box will be enabled.</p>
|
|
<img src="images/AddTurnoutNumber.png" alt="add sequential range">
|
|
<p>When checking the "Add a sequential range" box, this will enable the "Number of items"
|
|
spinner. Click the small arrows up or down to set the number of Turnouts you wish to add.
|
|
This will create that number of sequential Turnouts.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If a User Name has been entered, a number will be added to the end of the names of all but
|
|
the first one to keep each Turnout User Name unique.<br>
|
|
See <a href="../../../../html/doc/Technical/Names.shtml">Names</a> under general help for
|
|
more information.</p>
