Technical Support
This module can be installed in most large-scale locomotives and can be powered from a battery or other DC power source.
The WDMI is in essence a tiny DCC Command Station, and outputs DCC signals to a decoder. The module outputs a WiFi signal, which can connect to and is controlled by a WiFi throttle such as a TCS UWT, a tablet, or smartphone.
A tablet or smartphone would need to have a corresponding app, such as:
- WiFitrax "Loco Operator 3"
- "Engine Driver" by Steve Todd
- "WiThrottle" by Brett Hoffman
You can also use the new UWT-100 from TCS which requires no additional software, and will directly connect to the WDMI and control the train.
The WDMI-27 will fit into many large scale locomotives, and can be used together with your choice of suitable Sound or Non-Sound DCC Decoder, such as the WOW501 or G8.
The module must be powered from a 12V DC source, and that source must have enough current capacity to power the module, decoder, and locomotive itself.
