Type of transmittor
There are IR LEDs in different designs and wavelengths.
Type 1 Short Distance Emitter
- SMD type 0603 without wire (1 x 1.2 mm)
- 3 mm wide beam 60 degrees with short connections
- 3 mm narrow radiating 40 degrees with short connections
- 5 mm with short connections
Type 2 Long Distance Emitter
- 5 mm 20 degrees emitting angle with short connections
- 5 mm 40 degrees emitting angle with short connections
For short distances
Using type 1:
The IR emitters are used at the roadside. They emit to the vehicle.
Depending on the resistance, the range is 5-30 cm. Sunlight reduces the range.
These emittors are used with:
All DC cars react to these emitters, so no address is necessary.
- DCC - digital system, they are connected to main track output
Only DC cars with the set address react to these emitters.
see also Stop coil
see also Progset
The long distance emitters type 2 are not suitable for this operating mode
For long distances
Using Type 2:
The other mode of transmission achieves a longer range. Theoretically, up to 7 meters are possible. Therefore, IR emitters from the ceiling can control the models. The transmision depends on the IR LED.
The models must be equipped with the LCIR.
The modules are designed per output (7 available) for 5 LEDs in series.
The short-range IRLEDs for Function module are not suitable for operation with DC-Car-Booster or PC-Transmitter
