DCCconcepts Cobalt Alpha Series Manual page 9

The easiest possible "Power & Performance" upgrade for every DCC system!
If you own a basic DCC system that came in the box with a "Train-Set" or perhaps purchased a
basic low cost system to try out DCC operation - such as the easy-to-use but basic Bachmann
EZ Command, Hornby Select or E-Link or Roco MAUS etc...
OR if you purchased a "White box" start-set Z21or a Gaugemaster Prodigy Express but now
want Accessory control...
OR if you just want more power from your DCC system and perhaps like the idea of a separated
Cobalt Alpha - based Accessory power bus - then you really DO need Cobalt
