can you draw a wiring diagram so we know how you've done the wiring.

Please see attached diagram of wiring.

Hi Fred.

However if I remove the wire then I can not use the signal to control the braking module.

I am trying work out how to keep the signal and stop the green light being on all the time

Hi Jvt1

What type of signal do you use?

The brake module is not active when there is power in the stop section. Any train can pass.

If no power in stop section the brake module is activated by lack of voltage.

To manipulate the stop section you would normally use a signal. When the signal is red it cuts off the power.

To manipulate a signal you would normally use a K83 module or a Viesmmann 5211.

If you do not have a signal you could use a K84 module to switch on/off the power section.

What I see is that you have mixed a K84 and a signal, which I am not sure will work? But lot's of experienced guys here, so somone may know how to do.

Or else try using a K83 module to control the signal and let the signal control the stop section?

Hi,
You are right. I must admit I answered too quickly, thinking that the 5232 had its own decoder, and was controlled by the digital signal. In fact, it has no decoder, and is controlled by the voltage on the S input.
That being said, I'm surprised that the 5232 current of the S sense input is large enough (some mA) to activate a LED connected to ground (and not to the digital signal). (I suppose that your signal lights are LEDS)
I see 3 possibilities:
1- Use a second output of the k84 to connect the red/green lights, and send simultaneously both adresses.
2- Use a k83 associated with a DPDT bistable relay instead of the k 84. That way, you also have 2 independant circuits, one for controlling the 5232, the other for the lights.
3-Insert a diode in the wire connecting the S input to the stop section, in such a way that the green LED is OFF at red signal. That diode should not prevent the 5232 to detect the presence of the digital signal when "green". BUT this is just an own assumption, for I have not found on the web the 5232 electrical diagram. But you might try, because it's a cheap solution in case it works.

Hi Fred

With your point 1, do you have sample wiring diagram of how this would work?

Cheers

Hi Fred.

Understood.

I am not very familar at electronics, with point 2 what is a DPDT bistable relay and how would this be wiried up?

Cheers

Thank you. Fred

Hi,
I remember there were some threads on this forum concerning braking in both direction.
Not sure it is straightforward.
