ScottV posted:I am using Atlas' signal system and have a question for those people like me installing it post-closure/buyout of Custom Signals. (ie, I am limited to the out-of-the-box signal designs Atlas offers) ... Atlas isn't making signals that (a) are for bidirectional traffic and (b) include a target light for diverging tracks at a switch.
I've attached a graphic of a simple concept layout with 1 set of switches and it shows where I would have to put signals for each direction of traffic. Red triangles represent block isolation. Circles with arrows represent the signals and arrow is direction of traffic.
Bidirectional traffic question: are you putting 2 signals back-to-back, or across track and pointed in the opposite direction?
Switch/diverging path question: do you just put 2 poles side by side to represent the straight vs. divergent path signals? ...maybe sink one lower into the layout so the lower signal represents the divergent path?
Any ideas?
Scotty,
Please stand by. Putting the finishing touches on the switch machine sensors on the PC board. Want it to detect position of twin coil, stall motor, and dry contact machines without any additional relays.
