<p>The following tools in the Tools menu work with most DCC hardware connections:</p>

<h3><a href="Turnouts.shtml">Turnouts</a>

</dd>

|

<dd>
|
|
JMRI calls just about any output to the layout a "Turnout". The Turnout object has 2
|
|
states: Closed (On) and Thrown (Off).<br>
|
|
For outputs such as <a href="#lights">Lights</a> and <a href="#signals">Signals</a>
|
|
JMRI provides special objects (see below).

</dd>
|
|

<dd>Lights are digital output bits that function as on/off switches. Lights were created
|
|
to provide easy control for fascia panel lights and scenery lighting. Lights can also be
|
|
used for any purpose that requires an on/off switch. A light can be used, for example, to
|
|
activate an electromagnetic decoupler for a pre-determined time in response to a fascia
|
|
panel button.</dd>

A <strong>Section</strong> is a group of one or more connected <a href=

You can have a panel switch through all the Turnouts in your yard throat, etc. They can

also change the status of Sensors, play sound files, and invoke scripts. They have some

simple logic capabilities for deciding when to set the Route's outputs.</dd>

can be defined with an unlimited number of Sensors, Turnouts, Lights, and/or SignalHeads

|
|
</h2>
|
|
If JMRI lacks a preprogrammed tool to do what you want, you can write a Script that does
|
|
exactly what's needed, including user interaction. Instead of defining our own language,
|
|
<a href="scripting/index.shtml">JMRI Scripting</a> uses the "Python" language that's
|
|
commonly used in web development. Although it will take a little time to get used to it, in
|
|
the end it provides a lot of power to control your layout anyway you'd like.
|
|
<p>Run your own scripts or scripts shared by other JMRI users from the
|
|
<strong>Scripting</strong> {<em>Old: <strong>Panels</strong></em>} <strong>⇒ Run
|
|
Script...</strong> menu.</p>
