I would like to know what to do to disable the voltage on the track in case of a short circuit.
Thanks Giuseppe Sivero.

The normal overcurrent protection will check to see if the short has been resolved and automatically re-apply power. You can see how this works by viewing the serial monitor. If you want power off, there is a newer EXRAIL command in devel branch which can be used to do that. This example shows how to do that for Track A, with lines added to myAutomation.h.

    SET_POWER(A, OFF)
