BC9008

Abstract

The BC9008 sign is a sign to select carts whose destination address matches one of the 8 consecutive address indicated by the BC9008 sign.

Function

This sign is placed under the rail and reads the destination of all carts passing on it. If the destination address matches exactly one of the address in the subnet on line #4 of the sign, it activates a button placed on its left or its right for 2 seconds. The signal can be used to change a rail intersection to extract the matching cart and send it to a 8-station subnet track.

See Subnets page to have details about subnets.

Usage

BC9008 sign must be placed under a rail. At least a button should be present on the left or on the right of the sign to command an intersection.
