Hornby Select Digital Controller

  • Multiple train control on all parts of a model railway layout with minimal wiring
  • Independent control or double heading control
  • Coaches with lights stay lit even when the train is stationary
  • Realistic train movement with each model being able to be given levels of 1-99 acceleration/deceleration settings
  • LED display shows at a glance which locomotive is under control.
  • Locomotive decoders are simple to code and program. Loco Addresses 0 -59.
  • The keyboard is straight forward to use making assigning a locomotive simplicity itself.
  • Point operation means fewer wires than with a conventional control and no switches!
  • Accessory addresses 60 - 99
  • Facility on the Select for a larger 4amp power pack. More power means more tains running at one time!
  • Supports 14, 28 and 128 Speed steps
  • Xpress Net socket for layout development
  • The 'Select' may also be used as a Walkabout companion to the 'Elite'

Hornby Elite Digital Controller

  • Controls up to 10 trains simultaneously, provided the necessary power is available.
  • The 4 amp power supply included allows for up to nine locomotives (providing power is available) to be running at any one time.
  • The four amp power supply allows for 3 amps to the track with 1 amp to the accessory outlet.
  • Incorporates 128 speed steps for smooth control of locomotives.
  • Can programme locomotives with up to 99 levels of acceleration / deceleration.
  • The “Elite” Unit supports up to thirteen functions per locomotive if required.
  • Able to programme up to 254 locomotives or other items containing a locomotive decoder and 255 points or other items that rely on a solenoid for operation. Eg. Electrically operated signals, electrically operated uncouplers and point motors.
  • The “Elite” accommodates decoders that incorporate a functioning feed back system.
  • Supports XpressNet protocol.
  • A PC interface socket allows for the upload of new firmware and the use of third party applications.
  • Uncontrolled 15V DC analogue accessory outlet.
  • An LCD screen supports alpha numeric information input.
    		•
  • External boosters can be supported through the XpressNet port or by direct connection to the booster outputs. A standard RJ12 six-way cable can be used to connect the Select to a booster which has an RJ12 socket).
  • Up to 8 “Select” units can be connected to the “Elite” for individual control of 9 locomotives providing power is available.
  • The “Select” can be used as a Walkabout Unit when connected to the Hornby “Elite” Digital Unit.
  • The “Elite” unit is Railcom® Lenz Syztems enabled. This communication (occupancy detection) method between a locomotive and controller will not function until the necessary software becomes available. This exciting development enables messages to be sent back to a PC via the XpressNet port. Railcom allows communication from the locomotive to the controller. Occupancy detection and the relaying of location information to a controller and from a controller to a PC will require occupancy detection hardware and a change to the specification of XpressNet and Railcom.
  • Separate Programming Track Outlet
  • The “Elite” is capable of speed profiling locomotives for “double heading”.
