SignalMan, it contains programmable logic blocks to perform
complex operations.
WatchMan
contains eight DCC current-sense occupancy detec-
tors (you supply the coils). This board also has eight auxil-
iary input/output lines that can be used for signals or switch
motors. It contains programmable logic blocks to permit per-
forming complex operations. The optional Fan-out board (FOB)
can expand this board’s input/output capability.
Experience using these boards
Using only a basic package, Jim Duncan (MRH staff) got a sys-
tem up and running with working signals in just a few hours.
The biggest problem Jim encountered was learning how to set
up the NMRA signal aspects in the boards’ internal logic.
Once that was mastered, Jim found creating new “decoder
files” (for the CVs) was quick and easy.
