Hi All,

Seek your advice that E-Z Command Digital Command Controller with standard 1amp can support how many DCC Track Turnout/crossover ?

-Planning 2 DCC Locos with 2 DCC Crossover + 2 DCC Turnout.

Thank You for your help !

Dear Alson,
First of all, the EZ Command has no AC terminals, so you'll need another power pack as well.
Since only one or two switches throw at a time, 1 amp is usually fine.
Have fun!

Hi ,

i have doubts for mentioned "Power Pack" ...is it connected to DCC Track Turnout ?
Have any example ?

The Bach-man is referring to the remote turnouts that require a separate dc power to operate, if you are using the DCC onboard decoder equipped one's then yes you will be able to operate them with the EZ Command. You will notice a slight surge when the turnout is thrown

Thanks for your further clarify !

Means there are no problem to handle
2 DCC locos and 4 DCC track Turnout with EZ Command Control 1amp.

Correct, decoders draw almost no power when idle, and the ones in the turnouts will only be active for a split second.

Thanks All of you for Helping !
