Although originally designed for OO gauge it can also be used on N, TT and HO gauge layouts. It is part of the Train-Tech Sensor Signal system and can interconnect with Sensor Signals, but instead of a built-in signal you can wire to almost any type of LED colour light signal or signal heads on gantries etc.

• Sliding SC100 into OO track suitable for DCC layouts only DCC layouts have power on the tracks all of the time and so the SC100 and Sensor Signals can take their power straight from the track by sliding contact fingers into the slots which some track has for power clips.

• Using a SC100 signal on its own As soon as the power is switched on the signal connected to the SC100 should light green. If it does not light at all check the power connections thoroughly - see previous page.

• Manual override of multiple SC100 and Sensor Signals Multiple Sensor Signal and SC100 Signals can be overridden to show stop / caution in the same way as a single signal can, and because they are linked they also control any distant signals located in front of them to correctly display yellow or double yellow etc.

• Using Mimic Switches with the SC100 and Sensor Signals • Sensor signals may be used on their own but Train-Tech Mimic Switches and Mimic Lights are a great way of both controlling and monitoring your signals and trains on a control panel.

Train-Tech Signals are available with ‘Feather’ and ‘Theatre’ type route indicators which can be wired to the SC100 and switched on and off using DCC or a Mimic Switch as shown previously. Route indicators advise the train driver which route or platform etc they are going and are often dictated by point position.

SC100 or Sensor Signals (using just a single wire) they all work together to provide fully automatic block working, each signal protecting the following block by staying at danger until the train has left the block.
