DCC Concepts DCD-ADS8FX Universal Solenoid Accessory Decoder (8 Way)

DCC Concepts DCD-ADS8FX Universal Solinoid Accessory Decoder (8 Way)

ADS-8fx is a high performance high feature level 8-output DCC accessory decoder with built-in CDU on every output designed to power Seep, Hornby, Peco and similar high current point motors properly and make sure they change every single time!

ADS-8fx can be powered with either DC (for DC only layouts) or with DCC to give all the advantages of digital or computer control. ADS-8fx will tolerate a very wide DC input voltage or a wide track bus voltage range and guarantees to give superb results every time.

Our specially designed approach to charging control means that power supply loading is very low on both DC or DCC layouts, and because it stores all the energy it needs on-board, when it changes your solenoids it will NOT drain important train-running power from your system.

ADS-8fx is powerful – it easily changes two Seep, Peco or Hornby motors – and can even manage 3 of them if the voltage is appropriate and your wire size is large enough to minimise voltage drop.

Wiring is also exceptionally simple as no added or secondary power supply is needed and ADS8-fx is designed to connect directly to track power or your accessory power bus. Understanding the wiring and connections is easy too, as they are also clearly printed onto the PCB so you will never forget how it should be done, even if working under the layout!

Addressing is so easy that we call it learning rather than programming – there are no CVs to set and there is no need for special programming either – All it needs is the changing of a simple switch to make it ready to teach – once that is done all you need do it act as if you are already changing it at the address you want it to be, return the switch to the run position and its done.

The ADS-8fx is easy to install, set up and connect to your layout systems:

Screw connectors means no need to solder.

One power input point for all of the 8 outputs.

Simple 3-wire output to the device being controlled

3 high power terminals for direct connection of point frogs and/or panel LEDs and/or signals

3 switch terminals with the option of one or two push-button switches

Feedback / IO data is provided via a pair of solder-pads– These output a low voltage as needed with output changing from 0v to +5v for direct connection of position feedback to systems that require it – or to any computer IO interface at all.

Main/branch indication can be set by just swapping wires as needed!

Simple “Learn” / “Operate” 2-position switch for easy addressing.

Flat back for easy layout mounting.

ADS-8fx simply does everything that Solenoid users have always wanted but never received from ANY solenoid motor accessory decoder in the past. ADS-8fx also has really high power available so it can control multiple point motors on each of its outputs, so it is economical too!

Because it has low power needs there is no real need for added boosters just for point motors… and there is another benefit almost unique within solenoid accessory decoders.

Unlike all its competitors - ADS-8fx can easily be macro or program driven and will always respond to rapid-fire commands as it is not limited by the ability of the power supply or track bus to fire many solenoids in quick succession!

Being able to directly control frog polarity AND be able control panel lights for signals plus offering system or computer feedback makes it something special and when it is connected via our Cobalt-S levers, the combination adds two more changeover switches, making it possible to control almost anything you can think of with nothing extra to buy or install.

About Us Delivery Information Payment Information Returns Policy

How it started; I have been interested in model trains since I was a child. My dad gave me the train bug. But on a little pocket money I couldn't afford many second hand models so I found damaged & none working ones to fix up. It was more fun and much cheaper, now I can fix most locos so they run like new.

Progress: When I realized I had too many spares I set up an eBay shop and repair business with digital DCC decoder fitting services in Middlesbrough.

Where I am now: Peters Spares now sells new and used models from the leading manufacturers past & present: Hornby, Bachmann, Gaugemaster, Peco, Metcalfe, Triang, Tri-ang, Dapol, Heljan, Wills, Superquick, Esu, Ixion, Wrenn and many more as well as continuing the repairs and DCC fitting service. We are also a Hornby Service Centre and recommended by Hornby on a daily basis. Used model railways & collections always wanted. Drop us a line on: 01642 909794 or just pop in for a visit to Peters Spares Model Railways ltd where our staff who are all railway modellers are always happy to help.

If you have any suggestions or comments please email us using the link on the store page or at [email address removed by eBay] .

As mentioned above we will combine your postage but only before you pay. We do not refund postage to buyers ordering one item, then paying, then ordering another, then paying and so on, then asking us for them to be combined, as they will be shipped as separate orders.

Due to the number of parcels we ship per day we can't hunt out other items already wrapped to combine with others. We are trying to save both parties time and money by combining postage before payment only.

Due to a lot of eBayer’s not paying for items after ten days we will open a buyer payment dispute this will give 7 days for payment or a response from the buyer to resolve the lack of payment. After 7 days if no payment has been made we will close the case to recoup our seller fees and leave an unpaid strike on the buyers account & then block this customer from buying form us in the future.

We are sorry about this, but there are a lot of timewasters out there who spoil it for the other honest eBayer's.
