Wiring interface for Dispatch Center
The photo shows my Dispatch Center that displays the position of all RealTrax turnouts and the condition of all blocks.
Red and green LEDs show the turnout position. Yellow LEDs show the condition of all blocks. This Dispatch Center indicates the layout conditions regardless if the turnouts are controlled by the DCS (AIU), the RailKing controllers or the separate Turnout (route control) pushbutton panel (shown).

To provide a wiring interface to the Dispatch Center a custom built terminal board has been built. This terminal board provides labelled wiring terminations, diodes and resistors needed to operate the LEDs. Custom interconnecting cables (not shown) provide easy "plug and play" connections.
