Train Identity Detection! Perhaps a black art to some and, quite possibly, avoided by many members as being a bit too far for their needs. Whilst DCC can encompass Railcom as a feedback mechanism for establishing the broad whereabouts of a train, that's not a lot of use if you don't use DCC...and quite a few members don't. | Train Identity Detection!

+ | <WRAP info round> | ||
+ | The group meets online using Zoom and members join the meeting from around the globe. | ||
+ | </ | ||
- | Whilst I am, in no way, suggesting that the technology used at McKinley is the best choice of system, the videos serve to illustrate just how useful RFID can be to us modellers. | ||
+ | === How do Video Calls Work? === | ||
+ | <WRAP round tip> | ||
+ | To join in you may need to add a headset with microphone and optionally a camera to your device, if they are not built in. You will receive a link which will get you into the meeting, automatically installing Zoom on your device if necessary. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Calls are scheduled and topics announced in advance. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Zoom provides thumbnails of each video participant and any shared presentations or desktops. The call host facilitates the meeting/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Usually everyone mutes their microphone to avoid a lot of noise from phones, clocks chiming, family activity etc. To speak you can just press the spacebar to (after a slight pause) temporarily unmute. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can select among several icons to, for example raise a hand, clap, agree, vote etc. Useful for questioning. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can also type " | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you would like to try out Zoom, then there is a test meeting service where you are the only participant and you can experiment with the various options available. | ||
+ | |||
+ | <WRAP button> | ||

+ | This link is available to anybody, not just members. | ||
