MTH DCS Remote System

Application This is the entry level DCS system that works with MTH HO trains. It will operate any DCS, DCC, or DCC locomotive With this DCS System you can control every HO, O Gauge and One-Gauge locomotive equipped with Proto-Sound 2.0 or later on your layout, independently, all at the same time. So, if you are into multiple gauges, one handheld system can control all of your trains if they are equipped with Proto-Sound 2.0 or later. DCS will allow you to control hundreds of features found inside a Proto-Sound 3.0 equipped HO locomotive including lighting, chuff rate or diesel rev level, sound, and smoke volume for each locomotive. Setting true scale speed settings is easy with DCS, simply dial up a specific scale speed using the DCS handheld and your Proto-Sound 3.0 HO engine will travel at that speed. Don't believe it, then get out a tape measure and stop watch and time your locomotive's speed, scale the result to 1/87 and you should get the same scale speed number displayed on the DCS remote. Multi-unit operation is simple. Create your consist using the DCS handheld by simply "picking" engines from the list inside the remote. Once created, they will all act as one. Want to demonstrate action on your layout? With DCS, you can record all the action and play it back later for your friends and family. Everything you do with the remote to make the engine operate is remembered The DCS Remote System includes: Hand-Held Radio Remote Control TIU (Track Interface Unit ) Video Handbook This unit does not come with a power supply. For HO, use only a DC supply. Any quality DC supply will do. Run at 14-18 volts and at least 3 Amps of power. Your old DC model train trasformer will work if it is straight DC and not pulsed.
