We consider the Klein-Gordon equation on a star-shaped network composed of $n$ half-axes connected at their origins. We add a potential which is constant but different on each branch. The corresponding spatial operator is self-adjoint and we state explicit expressions for its resolvent and its resolution of the identity in terms of generalized eigenfunctions. This leads to a generalized Fourier type inversion formula in terms of an expansion in generalized eigenfunctions. This paper is a survey of a longer article, nevertheless the proof of the central formula is indicated.
