BLOCKSignalling DC Shuttle with Acceleration SAS2-BR
- Runs a DC equipped loco back and forth along a single section of track - Optional station stop function brings the train to rest at a station - Realistic acceleration and deceleration - Quick and easy to connect and set-up
For a long while simple shuttles have been available to model rail enthusiasts to operate DC locos back and forth along a single section of track. This unit adds further realism by controlling acceleration and deceleration, allowing the option of station stops and so on.
For the modeller looking for a quicker solution, we have designed the SAS2-BR. This module is a self-contained DC throttle, designed to operate a single loco along a section of track. Upon reaching the end of the track, the loco will decelerate to a standstill, wait for a period, then accelerate in reverse. It will run to the other end of the track and then decelerate to a standstill, wait again, and then accelerate off forwards.
This action would be appropriate to single line with one train and two terminus stations.
There is also the option to add one or more intermediate stations. In this case, as the train enters the vicinity of the station, it automatically slows to a standstill, waits a set time at the station and then sets off again. There can be any number of such stations on the single line.
Many programming options are catered for; to control the waiting times, speed, and randomness of stopping times.
Power Supply
The module is designed for a supply voltage of 12V DC. The module will not be damaged by reverse polarity, being connected to AC rather than DC, or input voltage up to 35V DC or 25V AC.The module can provide up to 0.5A of traction current, and a power supply with a minimum output of 0.5A is recommended for Z and N gauges, 1A for OO and HO.
The output is protected against short-circuits.
