Transformer Note: Although we do not recommend using the DCS System with homemade
transformers or those that put out more than 12 amps, virtually any commercial AC hobby power supply
will work with DCS. (See Transformer Compatibility Chart, p. 114) Bear in mind that as you begin
to run more and longer trains together, you need to have lots of power on the track. For this reason, we
recommend that railroaders with large layouts and long trains use M.T.H.’s Z-4000®(Item No. 40-
4000), which is the most powerful UL-rated transformer on the market.
Optional Additional Equipment Shown:
M.T.H. Terminal Block (Item No. 50-1014)
The screws in each terminal strip of this terminal block are electrically connected to
one another, making it easy to wire the TIU’s output into the binding posts and then
wire out to several lock-ons from different terminal pairs.
