WNI-32 NCE Pro Cab Wi-Fi Interface Module
Preliminary Information
This module installs into your existing NCE Pro Cab or Power Cab to make it communicate with a WiThrottle server such as our WFD-30 or WFD-31 allowing you to drive trains in untethered, walk-around amnner.
As well as it being compatible with Wifitrax WFD-30 and WFD-31 for your NCE System, it also works with a computer used as a JMRI WiThrottle Server and many other Wifitrax products such as our Wi-Fi Command Stations with boosters and our large scale Wi-Fi/DCC Interface Modules such as WDMI-27.
The module, when activated in your Pro Cab (or Power Cab in Pro Cab mode), takes over the screen and keyboard and behaves very like an NCE Command Station, allowing selection of locomotives, driving and controlling functions as well as selection and control of accessories. The WNI-32 now becomes the Cab Bus Master with your Pro Cab is its client, implementing all commands via the WiThrottle protocol back to your true DCC command station.
Setup is automatic when working in Direct mode with a WFD-30, WFD-31, WFD-27 or WDMI-27. More complicated setup requiring connection to a home network, or multiple WiThrottle Servers can also be accomplished using the Pro Cab screen.
The WNI-32 operates either in direct mode or home-net mode. Up to four WNI-32 equipped Pro Cabs may be connected to a WFD-30, WFD-27, WFD-60 etc. in direct mode and up to six in home-net mode.
Currently the WNI-32 does not support DCC CV programming, but you can simple plug in your Pro Cab to a normal Cab Bus to go back to working directly with your command station. This automatically de-activates the WNI-32 interface.
Four AAA bateries, either rechargeable or not are required. Rechargeable are recommended and you will get up to nine hours of operation from a full charge.
Please Note: If you install a WNI-32 in a Power Cab, it will only work in Pro Cab Mode. You will need another Command station/Booster to supply DCC Power to your track! To use your Power Cab to supply DCC power to the track, you will have to plug it in to a Power Cab Panel or a WFD-31. In this case, the WNI-32 will be disabled.
