"Controller Live" is the live i.e. positive side of the output from your controller.

I couldn't find this in Rob's index. It is for DC track circuits. http://home.cogeco.ca/~rpaisley4/BODGP.html

It is still on his site.

A current detection circuit, there was one in that thread (but it's gone).

Do you want current detection or passive detection like the thread you pointed to discusses?

Current Detection Circuit
Posted by IRB Souther Engineer on Thursday, August 18, 2011 5:41 PM

I'm looking for a current detection circuit for block control.

There was one that cabbage posted in this thread: http://cs.trains.com/trccs/forums/p/178045/1953708.aspx#1953708

I liked that one but it is now gone...
