North American signals
Signalist SC1
The
Signalist SC1 signal mast controller comes with built in configurations
for most North American railroads and can be easily configured for any
specific
location. Simple to set up you can be up and running in minutes with
just a single CV to configure the mast type and simple wiring direct to
the signal LEDs and DCC track supply. With built in aspect tables and
flashing the SC1 offloads much of the processing that would normally be
done by your control system and logic.
Brightness and searchlight
colour can be adjusted by changing CV settings with 65 thousand shades
of yellow and 16 million shades of Lunar White possible. Once set
colour and brightness will remain fixed regardless of power supply
voltage.
The SC1 will connect to wires as thin as 38SWG so there
is no problem hiding the wiring within the signal mast and with current
control on board the SC1, series current limiting resistors are
eliminated making wiring even simpler.
Powered
by the DCC track supply makes wiring the SC1 as straightforward as
possible and the SC1 is small enough to be positioned under the
baseboard adjacent to the signal.
While it is possible to
connect any LED based signals to the SC1 and standard head definitions
are predefined, the following North American railroads have specific
mast configurations defined to make use of the SC1 as easy as
possible for aspect signalling on multi-head signal masts:-
Amtrak
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe (-1995)
Baltimore and Ohio
BNSF (1996-)
Burlington Northern (-1995)
Canada (CROR rules)
Chesapeake and Ohio
Conrail
Norfolk Southern
Norfolk & Western (position lights and searchlights)
Pennsylvania
Seaboard System
Union Pacific
In addition a generic NORAC definition is provided for other NORAC member railroads which follow the NORAC rulebook.
