Length of Sections Cut Rail

December 31, 2009

Anthony has several questions he is hoping someone with experience will help him with. He asks –

“How long should each cut section of earth rail be? Can you have only run/stop sections? OR do you have to have, run/brake/stop? This is for three rail K-Track to be with Viessmann Commander 5300.I am looking for anyone running this combination. Also, knowledge of feedback decoders with above equipment would be appreciated.”
