Signal Animator

Random Signal Animator

ANIMATE your SIGNALS without investing the money and time in a fully prototypical signal system!

When the train covers the photocell (included) the signal turns red. When the train clears the photocell the signal turns yellow after a delay (10 or 30 seconds, selectable). After another delay the signal turns green.

 

Signal Animator (SA-1) Features:

bullet Controls searchlight or 3-light LED-based signals such as those from Tomar, NJ International, Oregon Rail Supply and others
bullet Adjustable yellow hue for searchlight signals
bullet Current limiting resistors included
bullet Requires no modification to track wiring or rolling stock
bullet Powered from AC or DC - draws about 25mA!
bullet Versions for controlling other signal types:
bullet SAD-SBCA for controlling Tomar semaphore motors, 3-light and Pennsy/B&O position light bulb-based signals such as those from NJ International (NJI), LED-based position light signals wired with a common anode (positive) such as those from Alkem Scale Models and Tomar.
bullet SAD-CC for controlling Pennsy/B&O position light and 3-light LED-based signals wired with a common cathode (negative) such as those from Integrated Signal Systems (ISS) and Atlas.
bullet Solid State Design (1 year limited warranty)

Random Signal Animator Features:

bullet All of the features and versions above but can operate in two different modes:
bullet Purely Random Mode: When the photocell is not used the signal will, at random times, change from green to red to yellow and then back to green. The time delay between each color change varies from random event to event in order to give the impression of trains of different lengths.
bullet Combination Mode: When used with the photocell the circuit will operate according to the standard Signal Animator AND at random times will cause the signal to change as described in the purely random mode.
