The dispatcher will use this to control the mains only. Local control of all other tunouts are controlled as you walk along with the trains. The dispatcher has the CCTV to watch the layout and Rail-ops to make up the trains and schedule.
Wanted to include as much as possible but that would take two or three screens, Not a good idea.
Looking good! Eventually that is the route I would like to go, I have an old PC that would be perfect for use with CTC. My LHS has this as well and I saw a demo of it a few weeks ago, I was hooked. I especially like that the software is free. I just need to figure out the interface to the DCC system.
Which DCC are you using? I use Digitrax with Loconet-USB and it took longer to type this than to get it running.
I have CCTV and this panel so I ran a train from the computer using the throttle in Panel Pro and the CCTV and CTC. Worked perfect! Now our dispatcher can run a through freight or passenger from the dispatchers panel so they do not get bored.
