Schönwitz 17185 Pendelzugautomatik - Pendelzugsteuerung für analogue / DC Product Details
Automatic shuttle operation on a branch line enlivens any model railroad layout. When the train reaches its stopping area, it is sent on its way again in the opposite direction after the set waiting time. If the train enters the separation section, the train stops according to the set time and then travels back to the other end of the line.
The polarity reversal required for the change of direction is performed automatically by this module. No external contacts required.
Features:
- Suitable for all track gauges!

Frequently asked questions
| Question: | Which model railway layouts is the Schönwitz 17185 shuttle train controller suitable for? |
| Answer: | The controller is designed for analogue model railway layouts using DC power. It is suitable for shuttle routes, branch lines, connections between two stations and automated operation on exhibition layouts. |
| Question: | What does the shuttle train controller do? |
| Answer: | The controller automatically moves a train back and forth between two endpoints. This allows regular shuttle operation without manually changing the direction of travel each time. |
| Question: | Which settings can be adjusted? |
| Answer: | The stopping times at the endpoints and the travel times can be adjusted individually. The operating sequence can therefore be adapted to the route length, the vehicle used and the desired presentation. |
| Question: | Does the train start and stop abruptly? |
| Answer: | No, the controller supports gradual acceleration and braking. This creates a more realistic movement sequence for regional, branch-line and shuttle train scenes. |
| Question: | What is the maximum permitted load? |
| Answer: | The shuttle train controller supports a maximum current of up to 1 A. The current consumption of the train should be checked before connection to ensure that it remains within this limit. |
