The LCS Sensor track does a few things from what we saw at the LUG meeting.
 
For engines (and hopefully in the future other rolling stock) equipped with the IR sensor under them, they can do several things...
 
**Automatically enter the Legacy info into the Legacy base that the orange module would enter.
 
**Trigger 8 preset "actions" such as grade crossings, start of trip dialog, bell activation and such.  These are all direction dependent.  So what that means if the sensor track is programmed to announce a start of trip dialog going right to left, then it will announce a trip ending when the engine passes left to right.
 
If a grade crossing is triggered L to R, it won't trigger R to L.
 
**There is a record feature that is direction dependent (1 recording each direction).  That recording maybe 1 of 3 ways based on engine and control desires.
 
** The sensor track will report back to an iPad the engine information, direction of travel. It will also report fuel and water levels(if relevant) to the Cab2.
