Ed, How does the Zimo know if the wheels are on a dirt spot?

My favorite decoder in the ZIMO lineup has wires for attaching
keep-alive batteries which are a great assist to put it mildly.
Another feature of the ZIMO decoders is something called "Smart Stop"
which, in a nutshell, means the decoder will not stop the loco on a
dirt spot. Thus, it always starts up without the need to thump the table.
Not trying to start a control technology debate here, but merely
trying to point Matt in a direction that he might find pleasing. Worth
exploring at any rate.
Good luck....Ed Loizeaux
