One way is to mount one or more magnets on the underside of the train with their N-S pole oriented across the width of the train (to differentiate it from the couplers of just any old train) and then sense these specially-marked train cars (...)

| I just converted my first engine to DCC yesterday and started playing with LDCC 1.01. LDCC is fantastic! Thank you, Mark! I installed an AD330 N-Scale decoder from Model Rectifier Corp according to the directions on Tom Cook's site. At 0.8 Amps this (...) (21 years ago, 9-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.trains)

| (...) Looking at your program, I see that you use code like the following to "run" a program: else if(data == P1) code0=0x91+alt; code1=0x00; send(2); This will only do half of the job. This is a "Set Program Number" opcode, which is the equivalent (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)
