BACHMANN DYNAMIS

This is Bachmanns digital control system. You have an infra red (like your TV remote) handset sending signals to acommand station. This will allow you to control up to 9999 addresses. There are 10 function buttons for sound and lighting features on your locos. Point and accessory control will be available.As it comes you will have 2.5amps and 16 volts, suitable for 0n30 (or h0/00) or maybe a very small G layout. For a larger G setup you can add one or more 5amp boosters giving 18volts.
The basic sender/receiver is £99 and the booster is £99. This gives 5amp you wireless DCC for under £200


The infra red senders and receivers have quite a wide arc and more receivers can be added using the Pro-box.

Digital Control V. analogue control? Analogue control is the traditional , connect to the track, plug the power in, turn the controller dial and the train moves. The more you turn the more DC is fed in and the faster the train goes. There are variations like the Aristocraft Train Engineer where the controller dial is a wireless handset but the principle is the same However most model railways these days can use digital control. This is different from analogue systems and means each power unit on the track must have a "digital decoder" fitted. The power supply is AC and the whole track is constantly live from the moment the power is switched on. The controller in this case is used to select the locomotive you want to move before sending it a signal to do so.

Digital systems.
There are many digital systems on the market for all scales. I supply those suitable for 0n30 and G scale although they can be used with smaller scales.
For G scale in particular you need a voltage between 18 and 24 and 5amps might be considered the minimum to allow for expansion.

I can supply Massoth, LGB (when available) and Bachmann.

All digital systems should meet the NMRA (American Model Railroad) standards. This is more or less the case.
