Brake Generator  $25.00

(manual version)
This Brake Signal Generator is manually operated and is suitable for systems where the mobile decoders support
DC analog conversion for braking or "Asymmetric Signal"
(Lenz Gold decoders)

DC Generator
  Asymmetric  

Set Speed Zero Packet Generator $ 85.00

This Set Speed Zero Generator can be operated via CAB and is suitable for  all systems.  This device includes a "Set Speed Zero" packet encoder. This code generator broadcasts a set speed zero command and is addressable.  Suitable for those layouts running Soundtrax, older NCE or other decoders that do not recognize DC conversion.  A dedicated power booster is required.

Accessory Power Drop $19.95

This module allows for the connection of any 5, 9 or 12 VDC accessory direct to DCC track power.  The module supplies a positive voltage regulated current up to 1 Amp to power features such as lights, motor driven devices, billboards etc.

  5  VDC
  9 VDC
12 VDC

X Gate/Signal BitSwitch  Price $19.95

This BitSwitch can be used for triggering sound effects, closing a crossing gate, powering a X signal or any other purpose where it is desirable to apply 6 to 12 VDC to an accessory on the rail side.

Input power source can be 12 to 35 volts AC, DC or DCC.
Output power can be 6 VDC, 9 VDC, 12 VDC or Output=Input depending on the unit ordered.

    6 VDC
    9 VDC
  12 VDC
O=I VDC

Input voltage must be > or = to the output voltage
Note: This BitSwitch will work for any layout regardless of the power used to operate the engines 
(AC, DC, DCC or BATTERY)
