WFO-26 2-Way Wi-Fi DCC Track Occupation Detector
Available Now!
With this 2-channel module you can detect occupation of two blocks of track on a DCC layout. Each detector works by passing the DCC
supply to the track through a current transformer and will detect currents as low as 1 mA (1/1000 Amp) with adjustable threshold.
Two channels are provided so that two blocks of track can be accomodated.
You can display the status of the 2 channels using Wifitrax
WFD-60 Layout controller
that polls all similar modules frequently to display the
track occupation on a WFD-60 Panel. The WFD-60 will give you up to 8 panels on which you can draw plans of your layout and see
block occupation as well as control turnouts, signals and lights.

Power Supply Options
12 to 18 Volts DC independent power, wired to screw teminals on unit. This unit does not operate using AC.
DCC Track Power supplied from NMRA Compatible DCC Booster may be used as alternative to DC.
Connections
Two pairs of screw terminal inputs to carry track DCC current. A channel is activated when at least 1 mA of DCC current flows between these.
Two screw terminal connections for DC or DCC power. Do not use AC.
Two open drain outputs and DC power. Use these for filament lamps or LEDs with 1K Ohm series resistors. Maximum current 0.4 Amp each.
These outputs are not short protected! Shorting them will damage the module. Only use with a suitable load not less than 33 Ohms, such as a 12V filament lamp or an LED with a 1K Ohm
series resistor.
Mounting
Four M3 mounting holes for use with screws, nuts and spacers, or suitable wood screws with spacers.
