Hello.
I have a simply question:
How to draw a bridge in Commander's editor?
(I have a lot of Railroad-Railroad bridges in My layout )
Some UnderPass elements are mentioned in new Manual.
But i cannot find out it in Commander's Diagramm editor.
(I have the latest update of Commander V 052)
How to draw this bridge and make automation to work and to display movement process correctly?
Must I Use Buffer-stop ends instead? Will it work?

Thanks,

Thanks to all for Your responds!
As to me- I have Marklin K83 Turnout decoders And S88 RuckMelders
I want to switch 2 or 4 turnouts simultaneously at one turnout address (Crossess or Double-Crosses)
And I also wish that Commander must indicate switching process of all these turnouts correctly.

Hello.
I have V.052 (Latest) version.
-I have Crossing with 2 turnouts with electrically joined magnets and connected to one address of decoder.
-I mark these 2 turnouts at diagramm as having the same address (Decoder 1 - Turnout 1[Motorolla system])
As a result - all turnouts are switching successfully,
but at the diagram - i see only one turnout active. Second turnout - looks like frosen, and therefore i cannot realise authomated routings.
it's not so convenient to use one address per one turnout rule where swich-machines would be convenient to merge ellectrically in case of crossings and in aim to save turnout addresses of decoder.
I think, it woud be too reasonable to solve this problem in new version.
(I mean - all turnouts with the same addresses must be indicated as switching, and authomation must work correctly)

Hello driethenauer.
I downloaded and analyzed english manual 1.1 , thanks!
But i still cannot find out how to make feedback for turnout switching.
For new version of Commander's programm it would be convenient to make option for turnout feedback adjustment as either Off (as in present time) or opening usual feedback menu (s88 et all) or using Roco Turnout decoder with feedback (LS100)
In case of s88: block section contact can be used as usual block section feedback or as feedback for turnout position (using turnout's reed relay).
It would be convenient to make this option in further version of Commander.
It would add more flexibility.

Thanks,

Hello.
Recently i ve got Commander 5300
But i cannot find out in program: " how to make feedback tor turnout's position? "
As i already asked our railroad modellers - This is main drawback of Commander - why other people dont use this product.
This is very important for conducting manual train in Semi-Automated mode(trains in automated mode + one train - in manual) or by other trottle through the same layout. Also it is important when manual switching is used somewhere.
My QUESTIONS:
1) Please tell me how i can make feedback for turnouts on Commander's diagramm?
If this is still impossible, please make some very simply modification in new version of Commander's programm which will allow as option turnout feedback for switch position through S88 RuckMelder contacts (5217) (Turnout relay usually has 2 or more reed groups for lights and feedback aims) or allow another feedback modules (Roco, Zimo).
2) How i can use RailCom to detect which train placed on the block?
May be, are there new ViessMann S88 or SpeedBus RailCom RuckMelder exists?
May be, are there transmitter between Zimo MX9 Can Bus and ViessMann speed Bus exists?
Please help me. How can i do it?

Thanks,
Vadim
