It contains all thetechnology you need to send DCC commands to your trains and accessories.However, short of turning the power on and off, you’ll find your closestcompanion is the Walkaround controller which plugs straight into the Base Unit.The WALKAROUND is a hand-held controller that you use tosend your commands to the Base Unit, which then sends them on to the relevantdecoder on your layout. You control the speed and direction of your trains fromhere. One of the key features of DCC operation is that each of your locomotiveshas a numeric address which you select as and when you want to run thatlocomotive.DCC allows you to run it anywhere on your railway at thesame time as other trains are moving as well. You can operate points(individually or route set) and signals from the Walkaround. You can use it toprogramme your decoders to replicate the running characteristics of yourlocomotives, or even introduce a speed clock that allows you to run a 24 hourtimetable within one operating session.The possibilities are almost endless with DCC and withlocomotives becoming available with factory-fitted decoders as standard, we areentering an exciting new era. Of course, you can also retro-fit your olderlocomotives with decoders if you wish.The handset in this pack is fitted with a clear and brightblue backlit display, ideal for users operating a railway in less than ideallighting conditions.
