Massoth DCC Automation:

Link to the: Massoth Automatic Switch and Drive Manual

Connections from the track to a Train Detection Module 8170510 which is connected to the 8170001 Feedback Module, fitted with a Massoth Transmitter 8133701,to transmit commands  to the main transmitter connected to the Massoth 1210Z Central Station. 

There are at present two Train Detection sections active on Phase 1 and Phase 4, to allow a Automatic Shuttle between the two sections.

The required equipment has now been acquired,  Phase 2 and Phase 3 will be operational this year.

For the present the Automatic Switch routines are used to run a Railcar Shuttle, back and forth.

Even if the Automatic Drive Routines are deactivated, the Train Detection Sections will report back whenever a section is occupied, the info is displayed on the second level screen on the Navigator. 

There is a third detection section which is operated separately, which could at some point in the future be connected to the main system.















The other detection sections on Phase 4.
