New member: Software for Faller Car System

[dcctrain]

Hello,

I’m new member here. My name is Alexander Kolesnikov from Cincinnati, OH USA. I’m owner of DCCTRAIN.com

What software Miniatur Wunderland are using to control Faller Car System?

Thank you.

Dear Alexander,

so far I know the software is specially written for the MIWULA car system and works in cooperation with microcontrollers in every car. The software and the controllers cannot be purchased anywhere due to it's one of MIWULA's key for their success.

Hello Hartmut,

Thank you! I have small HO layout with Faller car system with out any control, just started with it. I’m planning to move to bigger house and expand my modular layout and probably it will be more advanced car system layout too with hidden yards and many intersections. Is there software especially design for Faller car system except this MIWULA company? May be I’m wrong, because I’m calling it Faller car system whatever they are using on the layout.
I’m not really familiar with this; I sow 3 video’s first time couple of days ago.

Newer WinDigipet-versions should be able to handle CarSystem.

Our CarSystem in N-gauge will be supervised by a software I created myself...

N-Frank,

Thank you! I’m using KAM Industries software to control my layout, it gives me opportunity to use wireless PDA as additional hand throttle.
The software can easily be adapted to control cars using feedback detection devises.
My question is: what is the best way to add feedback to the car system: using read contact or optical elements? Right now I’m controlling my layout with LENZ (the first version of KAM Industries software was design for LENZ equipment) and feedback with trains works great.
