LocoNet can support a total cable length of up to 1,200 feet. No two devices should be connected by more than 600 feet of cable. This allows for the network to be split & branched in a free form style with no stringent connection rules for network transmission. You can "tree" or branch out network stubs wherever it is convenient for the layout and debugging or servicing. The single network termination needed is provided by the Command Station. We do not recommend looping the network back on itself.

Digitrax Electronics

To set up your DS64 to operate stall motor type turnouts:1. Connect the DS64’s ‘TRKA’ and ‘TRKB’ terminals to your track. No turnouts should be connected to the DS64 at this time.2. On the DS64 press and hold the OPS button down for about 3 seconds until the red OPS LED and green ID LED begin to blink alternately. This indicates that the DS64 is ready to change the option switches. To run the type of turnout you have chosen, you’ll need to follow step 3 to change Option Switch 1 to closed to operate a slow motion type turnout.3. Using your DCC throttle, select Switch Address 01 and send a Closed command. This will set your DS64 to operate slow motion type turnouts. Refer to your DCC throttle’s operating guide for specific instructions for selecting switch addresses and sending switch commands.4. Exit the set up mode by again pressing and holding the OPS button on the DS64 until the red LED stops blinking.

TC-64 w/ Reed Switch Inputs

“Tie one side of the contact or emitter of an open collector transistor to ground (port pin 5) and the other side to one of the input lines. (8 per port)”

Alternate red and yellow to reduce confusion and make it easier to map a sensor to its address.

The TC-64 requires an external power source of between 9 and 25 volts AC/DC and should provide 8VA or more.

Move entry point for Section 3 down so that Section 3 is at least 8’ long. This simplifies construction.
