==Connecting to NCE systems==

===NCE USB Interface===
The NCE USB Interface provides a connection to a computer from your NCE DCC system. This allows users to program and operate from a computer using software.

[https://www.ncedcc.com/online-store/USB-Interface-for-Power-Cab-p38322160 NCE USB Device Product Page]

'''Drivers'''

Non-Windows users may need to install additional drivers for their system to recognize the NCE USB Interface. You can find [https://ncedcc.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/200590919-USB-Driver-Download-and-Installation-Instructions- download and installation instructions] on the NCE webpage. USB drivers for the NCE Power Cab USB board can be downloaded from [https://www.silabs.com/products/mcu/Pages/USBtoUARTBridgeVCPDrivers.aspx Silicon Labs].

===PowerHouse Pro===
The NCE PowerHouse Pro has a RS-232 port. Connect that port to your computer by using any off-the-shelf USB to RS-232 cable. Once the PowerHouse Pro connected via USB, start a JMRI WiThrottle server and connect with your UWT-100.

===WifiTrax WFD-30===
The WFD-30 device from WifiTrax provides true WiFi control of your layout using and existing NCE DCC system. The WFD-30 is NCE CAB Bus-compatible and will work with any NCE Command Station (Power Pro, Smart Booster, Power Cab, etc). The unit acts as a WiThrottle server using the WiThrottle protocol, just like JMRI, with optional loco roster and turnout list.

There is no need to install JMRI or other third-party WiThrottle protocol client - just connect the WFD-30 to your NCE system, power up your throttle, scan for WiFi, and connect to the WFD-30 device.

==Specific Features==
The SC-44 charger is at its heart a WOWDiesel decoder but has had some customization to make it specific to the SC-44 Charger locomotive. The information below details where CV’s and operation differ from the standard Diesel decoder.

'''DC mode operation'''

When operating in DC mode, the SC-44 Charger locomotive will sit still until a sufficient track voltage is present. Once the minimum voltage is met the locomotive will begin to move. A horn blast and bell will activate automatically. Users may trigger a grade crossing horn quill sound by quickly adjusting the track voltage up and back down quickly. The directional horn blasts, quill, and automatic DC mode bell are enabled by default and are controlled by the Automatic Sounds CV.

'''Additional Sound Features'''

The SC-44 Charger locomotive features new sounds such as “Whoosh” and “station announcements” as well as new traction noises like “traction motor” and “traction motor gearbox." Listen for the whine of the traction motors as the prime mover spools up and the Charger takes off. As the locomotive climbs toward 125 MPH, the traction motors are drowned out as the noise from the gearbox hardware hums ever louder.

The SC-44 Charger supports an "automatic bell" in DCC mode. After the locomotive starts the bell will play until the DCC mode automatic bell cutout speed step is reached. Please refer to the [[CV Addendum (Indexed CV's)]] section below for more information.

The SC-44 Charger includes a brand new Emergency Brake air dump sound. This sound will play if a user presses the Emergency Stop button on their throttle, or if the Brake button is pressed 5 times.

'''New Lighting Features'''

The SC-44 Charger features a fully-functional emergency strobe light that operates prototypically. Send your DCC system into emergency and the engine will immediately stop and turn on the red strobe. Additionally you can also activate the “emergency brake” manually by engaging the TCS-exclusive Braking Feature fully with five rapid presses, after which the train will come to a quick stop and turn on the strobe.

The emergency strobe light also works in conjunction with the “crew alert” feature. The crew alert feature acts as a “dead mans” switch. If no user input is received after a set amount of time the alarm will sound giving the user short amount of time to enter input or else the train will go into emergency, brake, and come to a stop with the red emergency strobe flashing! When the crew alert feature is enabled, the emergency strobe will activate once the crew alert timer expires.

According to § 1.4.12 of the Siemens SC-44 Charger Operations Manual, the strobe lights function automatically when certain conditions are met. The white strobes will flash when the ditch lights are activated and headlights are at full brightness. TCS has implemented automatic and manual control modes for the white strobe lights. The factory default is set to automatic control (CV182 bit 7 is ON). In automatic mode the white strobe lights will behave as described in the Siemens manual section 1.4.12 while the strobe button is activated on the throttle (default Function 5). When Function 5 is activated, the strobe lights will turn on when both the headlight and ditch lights are active. If Function 5 is turned off, the strobe light will remain off regardless of current head and ditch light states. In manual control mode (CV182 bit 7 is OFF), headlight and ditch light status has no effect on the white strobes. The white strobe lights are controlled manually by the throttle button.

==Button Mappings==
The Charger locomotive supports "function pagination." This makes it easy to access all 28 functions and all lighting effects on throttles with limited function access by adding an offset to the pressed function button (offset of 10 for function page 2, offset of 20 for function page 3. For example:

*Press function 8 twice to rotate through the pages until the decoder announces "function page two."
*Press function 5
*The decoder will activate function 5 + 10 (page 2 offset) = 15

''Note: the decoder supports accessing function 15 by pressing F15 on your throttle regardless of the currently selected function page.''

==Specific Features==
The SC-44 charger is at its heart a WOWDiesel decoder but has had some customization to make it specific to the SC-44 Charger locomotive. The information below details where CV’s and operation differ from the standard Diesel decoder.

'''DC mode operation'''

When operating in DC mode, the SC-44 Charger locomotive will sit still until a sufficient track voltage is present. Once the minimum voltage is met the locomotive will begin to move. A horn blast and bell will activate automatically. Users may trigger a grade crossing horn quill sound by quickly adjusting the track voltage up and back down quickly. The directional horn blasts, quill, and automatic DC mode bell are enabled by default and are controlled by the Automatic Sounds CV.

'''Additional Sound Features'''

The SC-44 Charger locomotive features new sounds such as “Whoosh” and “station announcements” as well as new traction noises like “traction motor” and “traction motor gearbox." Listen for the whine of the traction motors as the prime mover spools up and the Charger takes off. As the locomotive climbs toward 125 MPH, the traction motors are drowned out as the noise from the gearbox hardware hums ever louder.

The SC-44 Charger supports an "automatic bell" in DCC mode. After the locomotive starts the bell will play until the DCC mode automatic bell cutout speed step is reached. Please refer to the [[CV Addendum (Indexed CV's)]] section below for more information.

The SC-44 Charger includes a brand new Emergency Brake air dump sound. This sound will play if a user presses the Emergency Stop button on their throttle, or if the Brake button is pressed 5 times.

'''New Lighting Features'''

The SC-44 Charger features a fully-functional emergency strobe light that operates prototypically. Send your DCC system into emergency and the engine will immediately stop and turn on the red strobe. Additionally you can also activate the “emergency brake” manually by engaging the TCS-exclusive Braking Feature fully with five rapid presses, after which the train will come to a quick stop and turn on the strobe.

The emergency strobe light also works in conjunction with the “crew alert” feature. The crew alert feature acts as a “dead mans” switch. If no user input is received after a set amount of time the alarm will sound giving the user short amount of time to enter input or else the train will go into emergency, brake, and come to a stop with the red emergency strobe flashing! When the crew alert feature is enabled, the emergency strobe will activate once the crew alert timer expires.

According to § 1.4.12 of the Siemens SC-44 Charger Operations Manual, the strobe lights function automatically when certain conditions are met. The white strobes will flash when the ditch lights are activated and headlights are at full brightness. TCS has implemented automatic and manual control modes for the white strobe lights. The factory default is set to automatic control (CV182 bit 7 is ON). In automatic mode the white strobe lights will behave as described in the Siemens manual section 1.4.12 while the strobe button is activated on the throttle (default Function 5). When Function 5 is activated, the strobe lights will turn on when both the headlight and ditch lights are active. If Function 5 is turned off, the strobe light will remain off regardless of current head and ditch light states. In manual control mode (CV182 bit 7 is OFF), headlight and ditch light status has no effect on the white strobes. The white strobe lights are controlled manually by the throttle button.

==Button Mappings==
The Charger locomotive supports "function pagination." This makes it easy to access all 28 functions and all lighting effects on throttles with limited function access by adding an offset to the pressed function button (offset of 10 for function page 2, offset of 20 for function page 3. For example:

*Press function 8 twice to rotate through the pages until the decoder announces "function page two."
*Press function 5
*The decoder will activate function 5 + 10 (page 2 offset) = 15

''Note: the decoder supports accessing function 15 by pressing F15 on your throttle regardless of the currently selected function page.''

In-Throttle Consisting

2020-02-12T21:06:05Z

Stephenkoffel:

[[Category:Universal WiFi Throttle]]
It is common for operators to create and disband Multiple Unit “MU” consists during operating sessions. The UWT-100 features a simple method for quickly creating and managing consists that is completely self-contained in the [[UWT-100]] throttle. This method is known as “in-throttle” consisting which operates independently of the command station. In-throttle consisting can be used in conjunction with or independently of decoder-based “advanced” consists.

The UWT-100 consisting system is capable of controlling the speed, direction, and functions for all locomotives within a consist. The UWT-100 can also select JMRI-created and managed consists.

Our consisting system features “in-cab control” which allows the user to select the lead locomotive of the consist, effectively putting you “in the cab” as an operator. The Enter button can be used to quickly page through consist members and select the active cab.

===Managing Consists===

When a consist is created, the current cab address will become the first member of that consist. The following options in the “Consisting” menu can be used to manage consists.

'''Add Loco To Consist''' - Enter the address of the locomotive to be added, or select from a list. Pressing the Enter button changes the direction of the locomotive being added to the consist.

'''View Current Consist''' - Shows all members of current consist and their direction within the consist. Selecting a locomotive from the consist provides options to switch to that cab, remove that member, or change direction.

'''Clear Current Consist''' - Disbands the consist, returning all locomotives to independent operation.

'''Consist Functions''' - Determines what functions are assigned to the consist or to the selected cab.

Digital Command Control (DCC)

2020-02-11T20:42:50Z

Stephenkoffel:

Digital Command Control, commonly known by the acronym "DCC," refers to the Digital Command Control Standard created by the National Model Railroad Association (NMRA).

DCC revolutionized train control by allowing for multiple locomotives to operate independently on a layout.

DCC control is accomplished in two ways on a layout. First, the layout must be wired with a DCC system. This typically includes a wiring bus below the track that sends power and DCC signals (packets) from the command station to the rails. Second, locomotives must be fitted with a DCC decoder. This is, in essence, a computer chip that is capable of "decoding" DCC commands sent along the rails to each locomotive.

==Decoders==
The DCC standard ensures that any locomotive with a DCC decoder, regardless of manufacture, will work with any DCC system. All TCS decoders conform to the DCC standard and can be used with all commercially-available DCC systems.

==Overview==
The Desktop Engineering Programming and Operations Tool (or, 'DEPOT') software from TCS is a comprehensive software programming tool from TCS.

As you might have gathered from the name, this is a one-stop solution for TCS decoders, throttles, and other trackside devices. Once the DEPOT is downloaded to a user's computer, it can communicate with your layout, throttles, and decoders via WiFi or USB connections, in the same way as JMRI and other model railroad software applications.

Inside the DEPOT, you'll find specific programming tools for custom sound decoder programming, throttle firmware upgrades, sound downloads, operations tools, and much more. Moving beyond the core components, we will continue to roll out new features as users request them.

This software suite is designed to expand out and offer additional throttle and decoder tools as they are created.

===System Requirements===
The DEPOT currently is compatible with Windows systems running Windows 7 or better. Mac and Linux versions are in development and will be available around the time of the UWT-100 release.

===Version History===
Not available.

===Download===
Visit https://tcsdcc.com/depot to download a copy and try the DEPOT for yourself.

In-Throttle Consisting

2020-02-11T17:40:49Z

Stephenkoffel:

[[Category:Universal WiFi Throttle]]
It is common for operators to create and disband Multiple Unit “MU” consists during operating sessions. The UWT-100 features a simple method for quickly creating and managing consists that is completely self-contained in the [[UWT-100]] throttle. This method is known as “in-throttle” consisting which operates independently of the command station. In-throttle consisting can be used in conjunction with or independently of decoder-based “advanced” consists.

The UWT-100 consisting system is capable of controlling the speed, direction, and functions for all locomotives within a consist. The UWT-100 can also select JMRI-created and managed consists.

Our consisting system features “in-cab control” which allows the user to select the lead locomotive of the consist, effectively putting you “in the cab” as an operator. The Enter button can be used to quickly page through consist members and select the active cab.

===Managing Consists===

When a consist is created, the current cab address will become the first member of that consist. The following options in the “Consisting” menu can be used to manage consists.

Add Loco To Consist - Enter the address of the locomotive to be added, or select from a list. Pressing the Enter button changes the direction of the locomotive being added to the consist.

View Current Consist - Shows all members of current consist and their direction within the consist. Selecting a locomotive from the consist provides options to switch to that cab, remove that member, or change direction.

Clear Current Consist - Disbands the consist, returning all locomotives to independent operation.

Consist Functions - Determines what functions are assigned to the consist or to the selected cab.

UWT-100 Main Menu

==Overview==
Quickly created narrow gauge railroads played a crucial role in bringing food, ammunition, and construction material to entrenched troops and carrying away injured soldiers from the Western Front in World War I. The Class 10 Trench 2-6-2T was one of the engines that saw service with the U.S. Army in France. When the war ended, the victorious U.S. troops turned over all the railways and equipment to the French, who adapted them to agricultural use. [[Bachmann]]’s DCC WOWSound®-equipped model is the first ever to feature [[Chuffinity]] technology. Featuring a ten-fold increase in the number of chuff sounds over previous WOWSteam offerings, Chuffinity™ creates amazingly diverse and realistic sounds. Coupled with intelligent load and grade sensing, chuffs will vary in character, volume, and intensity in prototypical fashion. Chuffinity™ is just part of this Trench engine-specific WOWSound® steam locomotive sound package that also features depot background and battleground sounds. Bachmann’s DCC sound-equipped Trench engine will put you in the middle of all the action of the Great War!
