|~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This Video 837 Pt. 1/2 demonstrates a DCC Programmable Model Train Controller (aka NCE Mini-Panel) operating 4 MTH Protosound-3 Brill Streetcars on a point-to-point, back-and-forth shuttle track of MTH Realtrax -- using two Z-Stuff infrared detectors, and no blocks.

~~~~~~~~~~
The system is configured so that it can be used as a public display. It has a "public" pushbutton out in front, labeled "Push and Release. The public can use this public button to start the streetcars.

A "REPEAT" switch controls whether the streetcars run just 1 cycle and stop, or whether they will keep running continuously.

Atlas 205 slide switches is used to control whether all 4 streetcars run, or any combination from 1 to 3 cars.
An Atlas 56 Momentary Switch is used for the "Start" and "Reset" functions.

Two Z-Stuff DZ-1012 infrared detectors with DZ-1008 relays are used to detect when the trains enter the station area.
The outputs of the relays are connected to Inputs 6 & 8 of the Controller.
