Wireless Throttles - Overview
More than a decade ago, we offered one of the very first wireless throttles for a DCC system.
It was so popular that it was awarded the prestigious Model Railroader Magazine’s most innovative product award.
In the intervening years, we’ve refined, improved and simplified our wireless throttles based on user requests and changes to the NMRA-DCC standard.
This year, we’ve released our 3rd generation wireless throttle the T5000E and we think you’ll find it to be one of the finest wireless throttles we have ever released at a price that’s easy on the budget too.
Adding Wireless Throttles
Adding wireless throttles to your EasyDCC System is easy and straight forward.
You will need at least one wireless basestation, also called a receiver.
This basestation receives the wireless throttle data and formats for sending to the Command Station.
You can use multiple basestations on your layout especially if it is very large or you have a large number of operators.
Each basestation can support up to 8 throttles.
There are a number of different ways to hook up basestations.
Click on the Receivers link for details.
You can also read about the hookup options in the EasyDCC System Installation and Operation Manual (the Orange book).
Combine Wireless And Plug-In Throttles
The wireless throttles work right alongside plug-in throttles.
It is very common to have main-line operators using wireless throttles while yard and town operators use plug-in throttles.
Both can be used interchangeably without any hassle.
EasyDCC Is Optimized For Wireless Control:
Precision wireless control capable of flawless locomotive control is the goal; and CVP Products, with more than 30 years of command control design experience, has met and exceeded that goal with the EASYDCC wireless throttle option.
There are several attributes that describe the required performance levels for a wireless system.
Your Wireless Throttle Must Be Simple: your operators must be able to pick up the throttle and instinctively know how to operate their train.
Changing the speed or direction and controlling locomotive functions should never take an elaborate set of instructions.
Wireless Throttle Control Must Have Fast Response: EASYDCC is optimized to provide fast response time when many throttles and locomotives are active.
The Wireless System Must Be Stable: layout operations lasting for many hours is the norm for EasyDCC systems.
The system software has been tested and optimized for a variety of heavy duty conditions and environments.
Lots Of Wireless Throttles: Use up to 32 wireless throttles with an EasyDCC System.
Even when heavily loaded with this many trains and operators, your locomotive performance and system response will remain remarkably good.
Excellent Range: Excellent range and coverage is provide with the use of a high performance antenna.
Comfortable and Convenient: CVP’s wireless throttles have the same small size, balanced feel and easy to understand controls.
The big, speed-control knob makes precise speed control simple and intuitive.
The design allows for convenient one handed operation - for both right and left handed operators.
The sleek, balanced case makes the throttle very comfortable during long operating sessions.
