Hi, Great video can you please give me some advice for current feedback occupancy of point work? I have followed the instructions for wiring the feedback modules(track occupancy= one rail sections with plastic rail joiners) for “SIMPLE" straight track but the instructions do not mention feedback wiring for points/turnouts and cross overs and double slips? I understand each block has a min of three contacts(sections) being start, travel and slow to stop at the signal.....so that is easy to follow re plastic rail joiners and wiring. However very often there is a multitude of points, cross overs and double slips coming out of the station? I am not able to understand where the plastic rail joiners go…… I have not been able to see any examples of DCC blocks with points/turnouts or crossovers or double slips??? Do I isolate each point and crossover and double slip? If so I suspect the points would have a plastic rail joiner on three positions for insulfrog and five positions on electrfrog points to totally make the point in a block in its own right, i.e. give the point its own power droppers? Any advice would be appreciated. regards Scott

Thank you. I personally do not use detection on my points. With TC they are really not needed. What are you trying to achieve with this detection ?
Hello I have not heard of this. Where would I find this?
