Search Light Signal Features:   

  • HO N  O  & Large Scale Search Light signals have one LED lamp per target. Each LED is bi-color, three wire, solid state.
    • Each LED is capable of displaying both green or red aspects.
    • Each LED is capable of displaying a yellow aspect with the appropriate circuitry.
    • All signals come with current limiting resistors for 5v or 12v operation.
    • LEDs are common cathode wired. Connecting either lead to positive (+) will display the corresponding color. Connecting the green and red leads to positive will display yellow.

Color Light Signal Features: HO, N and O Scales

  • Color Light signals have one LED for each color aspect (green, yellow, or red).
  • LEDs are common anode wired. Bringing a lead to ground(-) will display the corresponding color.
  • All signals come with current limiting resistors for 5v or 12v operation.

Built-ups Features:HO N O & G Scale

  • All built-up signals come completely assembled.
  • All block signals come painted with black targets and silver base, mast, ladder, plate forms, and finials.
  • All signals are pretested.
  • Each signal comes with installation and operating instruction.

Signal Control Units

Grade Crossing Flasher Unit Features HO N or O (CF):

  • This unit controls the alternating illumination of Grade Crossing Signals.
  • 12-18v operation drive LED type crossing signals
  • built-in current limiting resistors
  •  can be used with DSD for activation or use other detection devices or simple on/off switch.

Grade Crossing Flasher/Detector Unit Features HO N or O (CFD):

  • This unit has the same features as the Grade Crossing Flasher unit with a built-in detector.
  • Output and input for double track mains to activate CFD from either track.

Detector/Signal Driver Unit (DSD) Features (HO N or O):

  • Current Sensing type detector
    The DSD provides detection and signal logic for either search light or color light signals for a single block of track.
  • Compatible with DC or DCC systems. Can be used on any system with 9-18v and a maximum 4 amp output.
  • will provide detection and signal driving for one block of track.
  • bi-directional providing detection and signaling on single-track mains in both directions.
  • drives LED type signals. (Search Light: bi color 3 wire, common cathode; D-Type-common anode). It will not drive two wire bi-color LEDs).
  • can control either search light or color light type signals. Current limiting resistors built in for signals.
  • Uses 12-1812v DC for operation.

NEW
    Detector/Signal Driver Unit (DSD-IF) Features (HO N or O):

  •   InfraRed Detector that fits between  the rails featuring detection in all light conditions. No cutting of rails.The DSD provides detection and signal logic for either search light or color light signals for a single block of track.
  • Compatible with all train control systems.
  • will provide detection and signal driving for one block of track.
  • bi-directional providing detection and signaling on single-track mains in both directions.
  • drives LED type signals. (Search Light: bi color 3 wire, common cathode; D-Type-common anode). It will not drive two wire bi-color LEDs).
  • can control either search light or color light type signals. Current limiting resistors built in for signals.

  • Compatible with any operating system.
  • The sysem :
  • Simple version selection by jumper block for:
    • Stand Alone selection is for simple operation with minimum wiring. The LDSD will bring the signal to red when a block is detected. When the train is no longer detected, the signal will drop to amber for 12 seconds, and then return to green
    • Interlocked version is completely interlocked. Signals will display the proper aspects of green, amber, and red depending on track condition. This version simulates ABS type signal systems.
  • New Relay box contains all the circuitry to run the system. Can be retrofit to any railroad already in use.
  • Uses the latest state-of-the-art electronics with infrared detection for any light conditions.
  • Capable of driving bicolor three-wire LEDs including circuitry for amber aspect.
  • draws 100ma power per unit
  • Can be used on any system with 9-18volt DC power source. (Live steam, DC, DCC, or Battery)
  • Will provide detection and signal driving for one block of track.
  • Bi-directional providing detection and signaling on single-track mains in both directions.
  • Drives LED type signals. It will not drive two wire bi-color LEDs.
  • Small Detector fit between ties for minimal track modification
  • For indoor or outdoor use.
  • Easy to install.
