Connections
The LT-50 has the following external connections and indicators.
(See the graphics on the next page to see where you can find each of
these connections listed on the LT-50.)
“LT”: RJ-45 jack (1x)
This jack must be used in order to allow the LT-50 to provide power
to the track output. Using any other jack on the LT Panel with the LT-
50 will not power the track output.
The fascia cover plate has been designed so that it is not possible
to be screwed to the fascia board upside-down. If the fascia panel
board is installed with the RJ-45 connectors facing towards the floor,
you can flip the fascia cover plate to correctly show the LT-50 jack
position.
Track Output: 2-pin green detachable screw terminal
Connect one wire from each rail of your Mainline track. This output
also doubles as the Programming Track which you may use to read
and write the address and other settings (CV’s) of DCC decoders.
Power In: 2.5mm*5.5mm barrel jack
Connect the TCS-provided power supply here. Do not use any other
power supplies.
LCC Connectors: RJ-45 jack (3x)
These connectors support LCC CAN-bus. The current rating of each
jack is marked on the fascia panel board, and has an arrow noting
whether it is a supplier/passthrough, or consumer. Up to 400 mA of
power can be provided to certain sockets by connecting the configu
-
ration jumpers. Use the front-facing jack only for wired LCC throttles.
“Track On” LED:
The Track On LED will be lit RED when the fascia board has incom-
ing power from the power supply.
The Track On LED will go GREEN when power is being provided to
the Track Output.
The Track On LED will go RED again if the system is put into E-OFF.
Configuration Jumpers:
There are three jumpers provided with the LT Panel. These jumpers
can be used to connect circuits using the header on the LT Panel
board. See the table and diagrams to the right for more information.

WARNING:
Use only the TCS-provided power supply with the
LT-50. This requirement guarantees device performance as
certified.
