IRP1 BLOCK SIGNALLING INFRA RED POINTS CONTROLLER.
Automatic Points Controller.
Detects trains using a pair of infra-red sensors (included).
Able to operate points and route trains automatically.
Compatible with facing and trailing points.
Operation can easily be customised to suit the installation.
Designed to work with standard twin-coil points motors, the BLOCKsignalling IRP1 is able to detect the presence of trains by using infra-red sensors which are located below the track.
When trains are detected, the module can operate points automatically to route trains.
With trailing points, the module can automatically set the points to match approaching trains to prevent derailments.
When connected to facing points, the points controller is able to detect trains approaching the points and, depending on the programming, will send trains to the branch line.
By programming the ratio (see below), you can select whether one in every 2, one in every 3, etc trains run to the branch line.
It is also possible to randomly set trains to run to the branch line.
