and a separate
accessory
power bus become more important. If you have a Digitrax system, whether it is a Zephyr, a
Super-Chief or any other, then Cobalt
D
Box will do it all for you!
This simple diagram shows how to add an accessory power bus or power districts to DIGITRAX using Alpha
D
Box.
Digitrax actually uses quite a different power bus wiring structure, however we made Alpha very versatile, so you still have
lots of possibilities, subject only to the use of the correct DIGITRAX adapter leads. There really is NO limit to the system
growth that is possible with Alpha
D
Box as long as you utilise our DIGITRAX adapter leads too (see page 26~27).
