DCC CONTROL

DCC Specialties Block Watcher

No Power Supply Needed:  Develops power from the DCC input connections.Very Low Voltage Drop: The resistance is less than 0.060 Ohms, very small voltage drop.Adaptive Block Leakage Detection: Electronically determines the amount of leakage current in the block when power is turned on. The current can also be set with a CV value up to about 130 mA.Stabilized Setting for Current Trip Level: This prevents the block detection from fluttering on and off when the current is near the trip level.

Block Detection Option: Block detection can be turned on with an Accessory Command for testing signals even with nothing in the block. This feature can also be used to turn the signals red to protect a crossing.

Block Detection Output Isolated from Track Power: The output switch is totally isolated from the track power. This eliminates many wiring problems when combining signal circuits and track power.

Outputs for LED Indicator: A single LED output can be used for a remote location.

ESU Lokpilots

Can also be used for DC operation and recognises operational modes. Up to 9999 addresses in DCC operation. The LokPilot V5.0 DCC also fully supports the RailCom® standard and can be programmed with all current digital command stations.

It is 9% smaller than its forerunner and thus easier to install. with 8-pin or 6-pin NEM interface, and a new version with a 21MTC connector.  4 function outputs 250 mA load light functions such as flashing light, firebox flicker, strobe – and double strobe, Ditch Light etc. Beyond that, the 21MTC connector version has two logical outputs which can be made alive via the adapter board 51968.

TurnOn Module - Soft Start Circuit For Large Inrush Currents of Sound Decoders and Stay Alive Decoders

If you have a lot of sound decoders and decoders with stay alive circuits on the track, they can confuse the booster when it starts up in to thinking there is a short because of the sudden current draw of all the capacitors. This circuit prevents that problem by putting a small resistance in to the circuit to slow the current rush and once the voltage gets up a 10 Amp relay bypasses the resistor so that there is a straight connection to the booster. Connect the TurnOn directly after the booster and before any other components. The resistor is 0.5 Ohms 20Watt.

Relay is 10 Amps and turns on at about 10Volts on the track.  Diodes prevent the startup pulse of the relay from getting on to the DCC bus.

Will also work with other brands of boosters and command stations.

The Auto-SW is a smart relay board with one input (two wires from powercab output) and two outputs. One output for the main layout and a second output for a programming track.It senses when you put the PC into program track mode and energizes a relay that disconnects layout track power and connects a dedicated program track.  

It is designed to detect packets on the DCC track bus that initialize service mode programming aka- programming track mode. When it sees those packets it throws a relay disabling one set of outputs and activating the other.

It will operate with other DCC systems such as the Digitrax Empire Builder, Big Boy, or Challenger.

It does not operate when using PROGRAM ON MAIN.

It is designed to be used with the Powercab in the original starter set configuration only.
