All Known Implementing Classes:

Mx1Packetizer, Mx1TrafficController
```
public interface Mx1Interface
```
Mx1Interface defines the general connection to a MX-1 layout.
Use this interface to send messages to a MX-1 layout. Classes implementing the Mx1Listener interface can register here to receive incoming MX-1 messages as events.
The jmri.jrmix.zimo.Mx1TrafficManager provides the first implementation of this interface.
How do you locate an implemenation of this interface? That's an interesting question. This is inherently MX-1 specific, so it would be inappropriate to put it in the jmri.InterfaceManager. And Java interfaces can't have static members, so we can't provide an implementation() member. For now, we use a static implementation member in the Mx1TrafficManager implementation to locate _any_ implementation; this clearly needs to be improved.
Mx1Listener implementations registering for traffic updates cannot assume that messages will be returned in any particular thread. See the Mx1Listener doc for more background.

    Request notification of things happening on the MX-1.
    The same listener can register multiple times with different masks. (Multiple registrations with a single mask value are equivalent to a single registration) Mask values are defined as class constants. Note that these are bit masks, and should be OR'd, not added, if multiple values are desired.
    The event notification contains the received message as source, not this object, so that we can notify of an incoming message to multiple places and then move on.
    
    Parameters:
    
    mask - The OR of the key values of messages to be reported (to reduce traffic, provide for listeners interested in different things)
    
    listener - Object to be notified of new messages as they arrive.
  - removeMx1Listener

void removeMx1Listener(int mask,
                       Mx1Listener listener)
