TRACK CONNECTION
If standard DC power packs supply your railroad, turn them off and disconnect the feeder wires to your track.
NOTE: IF YOUR LAYOUT IS SEGMENTED INTO “POWER DISTRICTS,” TURN ALL ELECTRICAL BLOCKS ON, AS
LONG AS DOING SO WILL NOT RESULT IN A SHORT CIRCUIT. PARTICULAR CARE MUST BE TAKEN WITH
REVERSE-LOOP TRACK CONFIGURATIONS.
If you are using Bachmann’s
E-Z Track
system, plug the red
E-Z Track
Track Power Wire into the socket on the back of the
E-Z
Command
Control Center labeled “TO TRACK” (figure 2) and plug the other end into any standard
E-Z Track
terminal rerailer (figure 3).
When using a track system other than
E-Z Track
, choose the Universal Track Power Wire (with the bare ends) and plug it into the
E-Z Command
Control Center as illustrated in figure 2. Next, attach the bare ends of the track power wire to the point where you
previously supplied power from your DC controller to your layout (figure 4).
After the track connections are complete, plug the Wall Pack Power Supply into a standard 110 volt wall outlet (figure 5). Plug the
wire from the Wall Pack Power Supply into the socket on the
E-Z Command
controller labeled “16V AC IN” (figure 6). Next, move
the master “On/Off” switch on the underside of the E-Z Command Control to the “On” position (figure 7).
Once the
E-Z Command
Control Center is powered, the power LED indicator (located below the “Stop” button) will be lit. One of the
“Direction” LEDs and the LED next to the address “1” button will also be lit (figure 8).
If your Control Center does not power up as shown here, disconnect it from the Wall Pack Power Supply, and let it sit for two
minutes. This will allow the system to reset itself. After two minutes, you can reconnect the Wall Pack Power Supply to the Control
Center.
