This starter kit consists of modules with “Starterkit” configuration pre-installed in locomotives and turnouts.

CTC components with configuration:

Additional necessary parts:

  • Power supply / power adapter
  • 2 x semaphore signal
  • Tracks

Starterkit with Configured CTC Modules Installed in Locomotives and Turnouts

The following describes the setup and commissioning of a model railway with CTC control. It is assumed that a starter kit with CTC modules installed in locomotives and turnouts is available.

Details about the turnout module can be found here: CTC-turnout module.

Each of the turnout modules is connected as shown in the following sketch:

  • to track A/B the power supply for the turnout module,
  • to W1 the turnout drive,
  • to W2 the drive for the signal,
  • to IR1 an IR-balise installed in the track, here referred to as DA1, and
  • to IR2 an IR-balise installed in the track, here referred to as DA2.

Wiring Turnout, Signal, IR-balise

The track installation is set up according to this sketch.

The fully assembled layout with the locomotives looks like this:
