	A few sign systems support remote control: the ability to control trains by name. You then use the ''[train <name>]'' format, or the shorter alias ''[t <name>]''. Remotely controlled signs only respond to redstone changes, thus where you place them is not important. ~~So far~~ the ~~property, destination, destroy, eject and setblock sign systems support remote control~~.

	== Activation Direction ==		== Activation Direction == <!--T:29-->
	By default signs only activate when the train ''sees'' the front or sides of the sign. This means you should place signs facing the direction of train movement. To override this behavior you can set these activation directions by adding a colon (:) followed by one or more [[Special:MyLanguage/TrainCarts/Signs/Direction\|directions]]. If you want the sign to always respond, just use '''[train:*]'''.		By default signs only activate when the train ''sees'' the front or sides of the sign.

	For example, '''[-train:lr]''' on a switcher sign would activate a lever when a train enters from either the sign-relative left or right direction and doesn't for the remaining ones.
