ESU Navigator central station 50300


This digital command station was developed for model railroaders who operate a small or a midsize layout and who do not want to abandon contemporary control techniques

 

Run locos

The Navigator controls up to 40 locomotives; locos speaking DCC or Motorola® are appropriate. Depending on the decoders´ abilities, the Navigator switches up to 21 functions per locomotive and is able to handle up to 9999 addresses (up to 255 addresses are possible during Motorola® operation). Of course every loco can be named and assigned individually with an adequate symbol.

Multiple consists

You can also drive multiple consists with the Navigator; up to 6 locomotives can be moved at the same time. During consist operation access to the functions of each loco is granted - at any time; e.g. you are able to activate the horn of the leading loco.

Switch magnetic accessories

As is expected of a modern digital command station, the Navigator also switches your magnetic accessories and turnouts. It doesn´t matter whether you still use the original Märklin® k83 or k84, or the SwitchPilot which is compatible to it; you may construct up to 100 magnetic accessories on your layout and switch them. The Navigator handles Motorola® and DCC decoders.

Locomotive settings

Sometimes you cannot avoid changing the settings of your decoders during digital analog operation. The Navigator supports you with the programming of the decoders via its clearly structured operation interface. All CVs of DCC decoders can be read and changed on the programming track. If you use programmable Motorola® decoders (e.g. Märklin® mfx® decoders), you are able to change all appropriate registers (01-80) without any difficulty.

 

The Navigator is comfortably equipped to ensure you the most enjoyable control of your locomotives.

Remote control unit

The Navigator remote control unit communicates via a wireless infrared technique with its receiver (the central unit). As long as you are within a radius of approximately 22 feet of the receiver you will be able to reliably control your layout. The wide-angle optic-infrared communication will take care that you only have to produce a visual contact; you do not need to target the receiver. The advantageously shaped and well-balanced body with a centered back-lit (FSTN) display allows you direct access to the speed and the first ten functions of the selected locomotive. With the unique „joystick“ you control the locomotive’s speed with your thumb. The Navigator is operated with AAA batteries and can be worn around the neck using the provided strap.

Central unit

The receiver unit includes a complete central unit together with a booster for the main track connection, a programming track output, and a computer interface. An ECoSlink connection is already provided for a subsequent connection of the ECoS command station. On the main track output, the Navigator offers enough reserves for driving lighted trains, due to a 3.0A load output. A smooth operation of your layout is granted by an adjustable power supply, whose output current is stabilized and suitable for all gauges.

If you wish to read or reprogram your decoders, just drive them onto the accessible programming track. The Navigator can be connected to a PC via the USB computer interface; thus you are able to directly control your locomotives and turnouts.

The IR receiver

Usually, the infrared (IR) receiver will be plugged into the central unit. It establishes a connection to the remote control unit, and has to be placed in a reachable position so that a visual contact is provided. Thanks to its special wide-angle optics, it covers a distance of almost 180 degrees. If the IR receiver and the central unit are to be separated due to space limitations, it is possible to attach an extension cable. You can use all 5 IR receivers to enlarge the operation distance.

Power supply

Every Navigator system comes with an appropriate power supply. Thus we can assure you the best possible operation. The output current can be set between 15V - 21V via a potentiometer; suitable for the gauge of your layout. Beyond that, the output current is stabilized. „Blinking“ headlights happening during change of load will be a thing of the past.
