DCC Open Day - Sat 30th Oct PDF Print E-mail

The club is arranging a DCC Open day on Saturday 30th Oct 2010 from 10.30 until 16.00.

We will have a OO layout ( Duxbury) and a small OO shunting layout which will both be running under DCC control.

Duxbury will be using a Lenz system 90 with a variety of handheld controllers and the Shunting layout will use a Lenz Compact system.

 

Duxbury will use DCC to drive the trains in conjunction with our control panel to control points and signals.

We hope to have some sound chipped locos, so you will be able to hear and discuss DCC Sound.

 

The Shunting layout is a "work in progress" and as such you will be able to see how the DCC wiring has been layed and how the DCC operation of points is achieved. There will be no scenery to obscure the DCC hardware or wiring so you can see how it is all put together. The build is being documented on a web site, visit here to watch its progress.

 

Plus we hope to be able to demonstrate the use of a PC running DecoderPro, a free Java application written by the JMRI group that makes the setting up and tuning of loco decoders much easier.

 

So if you are interested in DCC then please feel free to come along and see how it works, ask us questions and hopefully encourage you to take that first step.

 

To register an interest or ask questions please contact Martin Head

Welcome to the LWMRS's website.

The site was launched now in time to promote the society's 2010 exhibition, and so we initially concentrated on content related to the exhibition. Links are being produced to older content, which will be moved across as time allows.
