DS64 allows for throttles to operate crossing gates:
1. In Switch Mode, select the address of the crossing gate
2. A closed command starts crossing gate operation
3. A thrown command stops crossing gate operation
If a throttle is used to start a crossing gate, you must use a throttle to stop
that crossing gate, inputs will not stop the crossing gate operation if it
was started by a throttle. If inputs are used to operate the crossing gate,
then a throttle should not be used in this way.
OpSw 21 determines which kind of sensor messages are sent.
Thrown (factory default) B2 Sensor messages (General Sensor Reporting)
are sent for reporting.
Closed, B1 Sensor messages (Turnout Sensor State Reporting) are sent for
reporting.
Routes
Routes are a way of operating a preset combination of turnouts to pre-defined
positions using a single Switch command. Route tables hold the Switch
Address and position information that make up the Route that operates
when a single command is issued. The DS64 has a route table that can hold
up to 8 routes and each route can contain up to 8 turnouts.
