WDMI-35 Wi-Fi/DCC Locomotive Interface Module
This module can be installed within many DCC-Ready HO scale model locomotives to provide Wi-Fi control of a DCC Decoder installed in the locomotive. It is compatible with NMRA compliant decoders.
You can then drive the locomotive using our Loco Operator app (Version 3+) or you can use one of our DCCIP Send modules with your existing DCC command station.
You can also control the locomotive using DCC supplied to the track so that the locomotive may run normally on a DCC layout in addition to its Wi-Fi control.
Functions such as lighting and sound are all controllable from Loco Operator via Wi-Fi.
The WDMI-35 provides programming capability via Wi-Fi in service or operational mode. It does not need to be placed on a programming track.
The unit has a socket to which a Capacitive Power Maintenance module may be connected. This provides up to 5 seconds of running when the locomotive runs over dirty track or dead frogs etc. Our CPM-10 Capacitive Power Maintenance module is available separately.
