If your railroad has DCC

and you want to automate, you need DCC-Bitswitch. BitSwitches are compatible with all DCC systems and locomotive decoders that respond to Brake on DC Set Speed Zero (Brake Generators).

If you intend to use Bitswitch for O or G Scale, please note that fact when you order either online or by phone.

Brake Signal Generator
DCC-BitSwitch
$20.95
List $25.00

At least one required to use any Bitswitch. (manual version)
This component is manually operated and is suitable for systems where the mobile decoders support DC analog conversion for braking, e.g. NCE, TCS, Digitrax, Lenz. One component serves multiple Bitswitches.


Set Speed Zero Generator
DCC-BitSwitch
$71.95
List $85.00

A dedicated power booster is required.
Needed if using Soundtraxx decoders. This component can be operated via CAB and is suitable for all systems. This device includes a "Set Speed Zero" packet encoder. This code generator broadcasts a set speed zero command and is addressable. Suitable for those layouts running Soundtrax, older NCE or other decoders that do not recognize DC conversion.


Accessory Power Drop
DCC-BitSwitch
$16.95
List $19.95

Does not require Bitswitch section control.
This module allows for the connection of any 5, 9 or 12 VDC accessory direct to DCC track power. The module supplies a positive voltage regulated current up to 1 Amp to power features such as lights, motor driven devices, billboards etc.


X Gate / Signal BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$16.95
List $19.95

Does not require Bitswitch section control.
This BitSwitch can be used for triggering sound effects, closing a crossing gate, powering a X signal or any other purpose where it is desirable to apply 6 to 12 VDC to an accessory on the rail side.
Input power source can be 12 to 35 volts AC, DC or DCC.
Output power can be 6 VDC, 9 VDC or 12 VDC depending on the unit ordered.
Note: This BitSwitch will work for any layout regardless of the power used to operate the engines (AC, DC, DCC or BATTERY)


Timed Stop BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$75.95
List $89.95

Used to stop trains when they enter an isolated section (Block, Station, Spur etc.). Timed stop is adjustable from 0 to 120 seconds. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls.


Alternate Spur
DCC-BitSwitch
$58.95
List $69.95

A train entering either of two spurs will be stopped and held until another train enters the adjoining spur and then released to the main line.


Yard Siding BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$41.95
List $49.95

Used to stop trains as they enter a siding dependent on the turnout position of that sidings exit. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls. Includes Signal Control.


Block BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$41.95
List $49.95

Controls one block on a line. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls. Includes Signal Control.


Station BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$58.95
List $69.95

Controls two blocks on lines that merge at a station where the operator wishes the trains to stop. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls. Includes Signal Control.


Passing Siding BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$58.95
List $69.95

Controls two blocks on lines that separate at a siding where the operator wishes trains diverted to the siding to stop and remain in the siding until another train passes on the MAIN LINE. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls.


Merge BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$58.95
List $69.95

Controls Two blocks on lines that merge to a single line where the operator wishes the trains to stop only as traffic requires. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls. Includes Signal Control.


Spur BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$58.95
List $69.95

Controls one block immediately proceeding track points and checks the position of the points (closed or thrown) and also checks both lines following the points for occupancy. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls. Includes Signal Control.


DT-ST-DT BitSwitch
DCC-BitSwitch
$75.95
List $89.95

Controls a section of main line that operates in a Bi-Directional mode. This BitSwitch accommodates Double Track to Single Track main to Double Track condition. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls.


2 Way Crossing Control
DCC-BitSwitch
$58.95
List $69.95

Controls a crossing where traffic flow in the automatic mode is always moving in the same direction on either crossing line. Allows the trains to cross on a first come first serve basis. Is compatible with all BitSwitch controls.


4 Way Crossing Guard 2.5 Amp only
DCC-BitSwitch
$80.95
List $94.95

STAND ALONE DEVICE
Not suitable for large scale layouts.
Controls a crossing from all 4 directions. Allows the trains to cross on a first come first serve basis. This "Crossing Guard" can be used as a stand alone device or with "Block BitSwitches" on each approach for additional control but is not fully compatible with all BitSwitches controls.
