Jere,


I believe our HO scale Block Occupancy Detection System is a Chubb system.  I know that the O scalers have been greatly expanding their Chubb system to support signaling etc.

Have you ever installed the Chubb system? I am not familiar with their system. I have installed MSS (Modular Signal System) and included a link to the standard in last months meeting minutes. I will also have a working prototype available for inspection by next meeting.

Greetings!
I wasn't able to attend the January meeting and I'm in Yosemite this weekend.


here are a couple thoughts on the notes below -


Signals. the front area is a needed area,  also hidden yard entrance/exit signals would be good too.  


I have a Chubb signal processor board, digital detectors and some other boards that they sell need for a complete basic system.   Next step on this is to create a test, switch/signal panel with power supply and wire up the devices - then learn how to program/load the software.


PanelPro - I forget who else was interested in this, but would like to make some progress experimenting with this to see how it works.  If anyone knows how this interfaces to NCE DCC and Chubb that would be very helpful.   Please remind me and we can schedule time this month.


Tony

Members, I can not seem to find my hand written minutes. I have everything else that was presented that evening, but not the minutes. Did I give them to either the new trainmaster or someone else to type up??? I handed out some concept sheets that night. Maybe the one with the notes was not returned or Gary has it. Anyway, We discussed doing limited signaling on the more visible sections of track such as in front of the control panel, the port, etc. Signal bridges are in the HO locker that could be used to start the process. I presented an idea to replace the wooden trestle structure that spans the track below the helix. Members thought it was a good idea and gave approval to research. Without my notes, I can't remember what else we discussed. See attached for bridge ideas. We liked the girder bridge and Deck Truss bridge combo. I have purchased the regular double track truss bridge 933-4510. We would need a couple of the new deck truss bridges 933-4520 to complete the project. Very strange that the notes are missing. Dean
