2 Outline Last Week Current Week –Calibration Program –Autodecouple Program –Final Issues Questions and Comments

3 Last Week Finish Autodecouple stage 1 –Coding done but buggy –Testing was somewhat successful –Need to add code to alter between detecting the train and the coupler –The DCC signal is being sent continuously

4 Current Week Finish the coding for stage 1 of the Autodecoupling function Test program so timing for various routines can be tweaked Write code for stages 2 and 3

5 Autodecouple Program Stage 1 – mostly done –Coding for altering between detection states needs to be added Stage 2 –Copy stage 1 but change direction and timing values. Only need to detect one train car and coupler. Stage 3 –May have to move train car off coupler magnet to realign coupler so train can be reassembled
