+ | ==== DiCoStation with USB- and Booster Connection ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | \\ If you wanted to **monitoring** and **control** your model railway with a **PC-Software** you had to implement in the past a command station with integrated PC-Interface or an additional external interface suitable to your command station.\\ \\ The **DirectCommandStation (DiCoStation)** offers now a **low-cost command station** which will work **without any push-buttons and speed regulator** because this functions will be taken over from the **PC-Model Railway Software**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The **DiCoStation** contains a **1.1/2.0 Full Speed USB-Connection** to the **PC**. All **USB-Units** require a so called **USB-Unit Driver Software** which can be found at the section [[:en:dicostation#downloads|Downloads]] for the **DiCoStation**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ :de:cad:dicos_11.gif }} | ||
+ | |||
+ | Via the **5-poles Boosterbus-connection** is it possible that up to **10 DigitalBooster [[:en:db-2|DB-2]], [[:en:db-4|DB-4]]** or compatible Booster can supply the **required capacity to the rails** and to **accessory decoders** such as **Turnout-Decoders** with **digital informations**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The **DiCoStation** creates as **multiprotocol-central-unit** the data formats **Märklin-Motorola** and **DCC** which can be available as **mixed formats** as well. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ :de:cad:dicostation_01.gif }} | ||
+ | |||
+ | The **DiCoStation** contains additionally the **connections** for **three s88-Feedback Lines** for up to **496 Feedback Contacts**. | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ :de:foto:dicostation_10_02.jpg }} | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Correct connection of the s88-standard feedback cables of all three feedback lines to the DiCoStation: Right hand and at the middle an interference-free twisted s88-standard bus cable from our delivery program. Left hand a ribbon-cable from Märklin or other manufacturer. ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | {{ :de:foto:dicostation_10_03.jpg }} | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== With the adapter Adap-HSI-s88-N is it possible to connect s88-Feedback Modules such as RM-88-N, RM-88-N-O or RM-GB-8-N directly via the screened Patch-Kabel to the DiCoStation in accordance to s88-N. For this connection shall be the Adapter Adap-HSI-s88-N simply plugged onto the three 6-poles pinbar of the DiCoStation. ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Features of the DiCoStation ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | * The **DiCoStation** supports up to **16127 DCC-Loc addresses** with up to **126 driving steps** and **28 functions**. For the **Motorola-Operation** there are with reference to the implemented decoder up to **255 addresses** with **28 driving steps** and **8 functions** possible. | ||
+ | * The **DiCoStation** will support within the **DCC format 2048 turnout addresses**. For the **Märklin-Motorola-Data Format** will be **320 turnout -addresses** supported. | ||
+ | * **Software-Updates** for the **DiCoStation** can be carried out **directly from the PC via the USB-Interface**. | ||
+ | * The **DiCoStation** can be operated with any **Model-Railway-Software** which supports the **data-protocol (P50)** of the **Märklin-Interface 6051 (only Märklin-Motorola-Data Format)** or even better the **extended data-protocol (P50x)** of the **Intellibox (Märklin-Motorola- and/or DCC-Data Format)**. Therefore is the **Software DIGITAL-S-INSIDE 2 (DSI 2)** required. For the **first installation** can be found the **demonstration software** within the next section. | ||
+ | * For the **permanent operation** of the **Software DSI 2** will be an **activation code** required. This code can be purchased from Company **modellplan** under [[https://www.modellplan.de|www.modellplan.de]]. | ||
+ | * If you **already** use the **Software DSI 1** for your **DiCoStation** you can purchase from company **modellplan** under [[https://www.modellplan.de|www.modellplan.de]] an **Update to DSI 2**. | ||
+ | * The **DiCoStation plus Software DSI 2** can operate under Operating Systems **Windows 10 (32- and 64-Bit), Windows 8 (32- and 64-Bit), Windows 7 (32- and 64-Bit), Windows Vista (32- and 64-Bit)** from Service Pack 2 and **Windows XP** from Service Pack 3. | ||
+ | * The finished module in a case comes with **24 month warranty**. | ||
+ | * Each **DiCoStation** will be supplied together with a **detailed Handbook** for the Installation of Hard- and Software. Those Handbook can be found within the next section. | ||
+ | * The **Digital Command Station DiCoStation** will be supplied as tested **finished module in a case** incl. USB-Connection Cable. Suitable **assembly material** for the installation can be found under [[:en:zubehoer|accessories]]. | ||
