Thanks for advice, using YAMORC 6016ES-CS I have started down the detection road

I haven't finalised, exact locations, will be at least 3 aspect with route indication and calling on with some shunt signals

Here is my layout plan, I would like to add block detction to add some sort of automation, also I would like to set a route including signals then when the train passes the signal it returns to red then in the case of an exit signal at the fiddle yard entrance on the left side of the plan, the signal would then change as an automatic signal would, I am OO gauge with an ECoS controling the layout right now, The Points are IP digital and any signals would be Absolute Aspects, I plan to use ITrain, so the question is what detction would you suggest? the right hand of the plan is the station, (part off scene) there is a depot in the middle, and the spur on the Left is an old branch now used for turning back some DMU services, and a Branch line also accessing the Fiddle yard. Stock is early sectorisation/ BR Blue, also what Accessory decoders would be a good idea? Thanks Phil

I paid off my class 89 with partial.ly in November, bur it is still not showing as paid on the website? ACC- 33645 is my order number

Ran out of blank card for signs?

Reprogrammed mine using Esu, found it had set to 1, now works fine 🙂, might look at a few more thanks to anyone who helped

Will have a look, when I get chance, I did try to program with JMRI, But didn't work, will try again, Thanks

What am I doing wrong? Just bought the 21 pin Bluetooth decoder, set it up with sounds for my loco, switched it to DCC and get no response from the loco? Using ESU cab control? Thanks Phil

You should have received it today Thanks

@charliepettyI have done something similar with one I purchased from you in March at Preston show, is there anything that can be done? Phil

Was only running 2 maybe 3 locos at any time, so I don't think so, I have found the DR5000 problematic at times on this and my last layout, so I think a replacement is due anyway

Thanks, I have a power cab, but lost a screw to attach the bus wire, I have wondered if my problems could be caused by me, it is my first roundy, and it completes a circuit can this be a problem? Phil

I have a roundy layout under construction and during testing I have found a few issues, I currently use a DR5000 with Z21 app, I switched it on recently and there was a short somewhere, I couldn't find anywhere it would short and nothing has changes from the last time it operated well, when I tried again I noticed one of my sound fitted engines clicked and the power went off again, I took that engine off and tried again and everything was fine! I placed the offending engine back on the rails and again no problem After a point problem caused an actual short, again when I turned it on a different engine clicked and the power went off! I took it off and got trains running again, then placed it back on the rails, Later a black 5 factory fitted sound was running through the fiddle yard and let out a "pop" noise then the sound stopped but the train kept going with accompanying burning smell? At my wits end with this, is it the DR5000, That I am thinking of replacing or something in my wiring? Each thing that happened was in the fiddle yard when it happened on a different line, Can anyone help?
