Utility
Throttles
UT1 on right, UT2 on Left
These simple, cost effective throttles feature one large knob for speed control and a direction switch for direction control.
Locomotives are selected with dial switches so that you can immediately see which loco is assigned to the throttle. Unique locomotive selection allows you to pick up running locomotives at their current speed.
Utility Thottles can control 4 functions. These throttles are perfect for casual users and for those who prefer a more "traditional" throttle.
Utility Throttle Features: |
- The Utility Throtttles are LocoNet Throttles,
designed to operate on existing Digitrax LocoNet systems (DT200,
DCS100 or Computer Control). These throttles can acquire &
run one locomotive or consist (even the ones with four digit
addresses). The user can control speed, direction, & functions
for these units. By pressing Run/Stop, the user can stop the
unit he is running but will not stop the whole layout.
- 128 speed step operation! You can select
14, 28, or 128 speed step operation for each individual Digitrax
or other compatible DCC decoder when you program it so you
don't have to sacrifice performance if you have some decoders
that have 128 speed steps & some that don't.
- LED indicators, selection knobs and large
speed control knob show throttle status at a glance &
make operation easy.
- The large speed control knob gives incredibly
fine speed control. When you select a loco, if the speed control
knob position does not match the loco's acutal speed, the
LED indicators will flash to let you know that you need to
match the speed control knob to the actual loco speed before
you lock on to that loco. Capable of controlling Dispatched
UniVersal or Basic Consists
- Control F0, F1, F2 & F3 from the
keypad. These functions can be used for lighting, sound, etc.
- Utility Throttles are set up for easy
access to 2 digit addresses 00-98. Address 99 is set up so
that you can use it to select locomotives with 4 digit addresses.
This gives you access to all 2-digit and 4 digit DCC decoder
addresses.
- Utility throttles operate without a battery.
Because of this, Utility Throttles will not work on LocoNet
systems using stereo jacks as plug ins. Digitrax will complete
work on a battery pack for the Utility Throttles later this
year which will enable stereo jack operation of these throttles.
- The UT-2 Throttle has programming
capabilities that give you access to CV's 01-90. You can program
address, start mid & max voltage, loadable speed tables,
accel, decel, FX effects and much more. The UT-1 has no programming
capability.
