Replaced LocoNet, OpendDCC and BiDiB with CAN-GC*.
From left to right:
CANCMD, MGV93, CAN-GC2, MGV93, MGV136/137, CAN-GC2, CAN-GC1.
The CANCMD will be replaced as soon as the CAN-GC3 comes available.


Setup Rocrail

First impression of how the plan looks like in Rocview.


Setup servos

Servo setup was easy and is successfull; Tnx to the very good MGV136.
I only forgot to reset the MGV50 after changing inputs to output, which did me wonder why it did not want to program the MGV136… Be warned! ;)
Also the BiDi-GBM is tested and works as expected.


The idea

The idea is to create a small N-Terminal Station Demo based on testlayout-en.

Servos

Not having aluminum profile or an other mount construction I used double-sided adhesive tape: I wonder how long it will last. ;)
(The tape is normally used for mirrors in humid bathrooms.)

Electronics

Part I

The LocoBuffer capacitor is a little too high and must be dismounted from the PCB. Horizontal, besides the PCB, will be the solution. A lot of wiring is done, but the delivery of the missing servos is pending…
