For the block system to work, it is important that TrainController can track the movements of the trains running on the system and determine which blocks are occupied and which are not. The necessary feedback is generated using contact detectors (see above). To set up a block, all detectors in this block are assigned to the block. If at least one of these detector elements is switched on, the block is considered occupied. A block must therefore have at least one contact detector and can be equipped with any number of detectors. Please never equate block with detector!!

The basics of this can be found in the aforementioned chapter 5.8 Setting up detectors in a block from p. 181ff.
