MS100 RS232 Computer Interface.

• Features:

  • The MS100 Computer Interface is designed to let a computer with an IBM compatible COM, or RS232 communications port, monitor Digitrax LocoNet. Application software running in the computer can then interpret the activity on the LocoNet and report back to the user via the computer screen. The MS100 is a signal level translator between LocoNet and a 25 pin DB25 style RS232 port.

UR90 IR Receiver Unit.

• Features:

  • The UR90 is the IR receiver unit. The UR90 also looks similar to a UP5 and is mounted in the fascia of the layout. The UR90 is simply an addition to your existing LocoNet so no additional wiring is needed. The UR90 will support approximately 10 Infra-Ready throttles (DT100, DT300 and DT400 series). Most layouts will need more than one UR90 because IR is line of sight and the receivers must be able to "see" the IR signal.

Digitrax LocoNet Universal Interconnect Panel.

• Give your layout a professionally finished look.

• Two RJ12 6 pin LocoNet jacks in the back of the panel for hooking up LocoNet devices that use RailSync.

• Two RJ12 6 pin Throttle jacks in the front of the panel for hooking up throttles and other LocoNet devices that do not use RailSync.

• One additional RJ12 6 pin Throttle jack on the side of the panel for hooking up LocoNet devices that do not use RailSync. For example, any device that is not connected to other LocoNet devices beyond itself. This extra throttle jack is great for connecting a DS54 or other local device.

• Indicator LED that shows the power state of a local track section.

• 2mm power jack that allows you to make the UP5 a battery saver terminal for your throttles by plugging in a PS12 DC power supply.

• Rear panel has two RJ12 jacks & two #6-32 right angle screw terminals for local track connections for power and diagnostics.

• Use 6 conductor telephone cable with RJ12 6 pin male connectors on each end and it's easy to daisy chain your network around the layout without worrying about hooking up a lot of wires. You can use your UP5 with other Digitrax Universal Interconnect products such as the UP1, UP2, UP3 and also with TelCo RJ12 6 pin type jacks.

• 20 Amp DCC Power Supply (230Volt).

   

  • Regulated power supply delivers more power with less heat for more efficient booster operation.

  • Operate up to 4 Five amp boosters.

  • Scale selectable for use with N, HO or large scale.

  • DC Ammeter.

  • On/Off Switch.

  • Integral cooling fan.

  • Design coordinated for use with Digitrax products.

• DB200 8 Amp Booster.

• The 8 amp version of the DB150 (but without command station capability). This booster is great for layouts that run lots of locos and for large-scale layouts where power requirements are heavy. This is a booster only and does not have command station capabilities.

• DB150 Command Station /Booster.

   

  • Full LocoNet Capabilities. DB150 gives you the ultimate in expandability!

  • Up to 22 throttles in command station mode.

  • Use with any LocoNet throttle (DT400 series, DT300 series, DT100 series, DT200, UT2, UT1, BT2, Computer throttle, LocoPalm Throttle)

  • Built in broadcast write only programmer. Genesis uses Paged Programming method exclusively.

  • Built in 5 Amp Digital Command Control Booster Rated at 80VA.

  • Many command station options are user customizable.

  • Accepts either 50/60Hz AC or DC input from your existing power supply. Minimum input voltage: 12V AC or DC, Maximum input voltage: 22V AC or 28V DC. The power supply you use should be within this range and should be overload protected for a maximum output of 4.5 amps DC.

  • Auto resetting over temperature & short circuit protection.

  • Digitrax Boosters are safe for use with all scales because they are multi scale selectable for N through G scale operations. N Scale=12V, HO Scale=15V, O/G Scale=20V.

  • Track Status indicator shows voltage and signal type (DCC or "Zero Stretch" Analog Signal for conventional operation.

  • Stabilized Track Drive Output. Over Voltage Protected.

  • LocoNet Expansion Network for easy reliable system hook up and future system expansion. All connections are made with 6 conductor telco jacks & wire. The LocoNet wiring scheme gives you a very reliable system for sending your commands to the track and controlling your trains. For future expansion, LocoNet offers you full access to advanced features such as track level feedback for train detection, signaling & automated operation without the need to run a separate bus. LocoNet is more than just wiring, it is a fully integrated train control system.

  • Sync output configures DB150 Operating Mode & connects the DB150 to expansion boosters

  • High impedance balanced or unbalanced signal input receivers on the LocoNet Interface allow boosting of several different types of command control signals.

  • Auto shutdown if command control drive signal is lost so that the layout will not convert to DC operation if a cable or connection is broken. The trains won't just "take-off" if they are not getting the DCC signal.

  • Complies with FCC Part 15, Class B RFI Requirements.

  • DCC Compatible.
     

LocoNet Occupancy Detector for 16 detection sections.
 

• Features ;

   

  • For use with one or two RX4 transponder detectors to set up 8 transponding zones and/or operations mode read back.

  • Outputs for panel mounted LEDs to display local occupancy & power zone status.

  • Connect to LocoNet to transmit occupancy information to your LocoNet System.

  • Detects any powered locomotive.

  • Detects un-powered rolling stock equipped with resistor wheel sets.

  • Add one or two RX4 Transponder Receivers and you can have Transponding in 8 zones. This means that you will know when a detection section is occupied and the unique id of all transponders in that section.

  • Ops Mode Read Back lets you read back CV Values on any section of track that is set up for transponding with BDL168 and one or more RX4s.

Digitrax Power Management System.

• Get the benefits of short circuit management and auto reversing without adding more boosters!

• PM42 Quad Power Manager lets you use a single booster and divide its output into 4 power sub-districts for automatic reversing &/or to improve operation by pre-empting booster shutdown when a short circuit is detected by the PM42. If you want to improve operation but dont need the added power (or expense) of adding a booster, the PM42 is the right answer for you.

• Each PM42 can run 4 sub-districts off a single booster in any combination of regular sub-districts and auto reversing sub-districts.

Digitrax Auto Reversing Controller.

• The easiest way to add automatic reversing to a section of your layout.

• 8 amp Auto-reversing control for a single reversing district.

• Simple to wire.

• Tuneable trip current lets you use it on any layout from Z to G.

• AR1 operates with or without LocoNet so, it can be used on non-Digitrax DCC systems, too.
