![]() Now, one box does it all for your Marklin Digital layout. The Intellibox combines all the functions of these Marklin components: · 6021 Control Unit· 6036 Control 80f · 6051 Computer Interface · 6040 Keyboard · feedback for your s88 decoders |
Intellibox: The Uhlenbrock Central Unit Bright LCD display shows you the currently selected Locomotive numbers as well as their speed and direction. The central section holds information regarding turnout/signal status. Decoder programming is menu-driven. The extremely easy-to-use menu provides ready access to all the features and functions of this versatile unit. |
The two rotary encoders allow you to take control of a locomotive starting exactly from its current speed. Pressing the speed dial brings the currently selected locomotive to a stop and reverses direction (just like your old conventional transformers). |
One Intellibox instead of many devices - The Intellibox performs all these functions: Central Unit -- 3A Booster -- Two speed dials -- Keyboard for turnouts and signals -- Computer Interface -- Programmer for all Uhlenbrock and NMRA-compatible decoders. |
Completely compatible with all your existing Marklin Hardware - Take your existing 6035s, 6036s, 6040s -- even your 6021 -- and plug them all directly into the Intellibox. Everything will work as before! |
The Central Unit for all digital systems - Connects to many different devices: |
· | Marklin Control 80, Control 80f, Keyboard, Memory and s88 feedback modules |
· | Roco/LGB LokMaus |
· | DigiTrax LocoNet |
· | Lenz and Marklin Boosters |
· | Lenz XBus devices (through LocoNet adapter) |
Everything with everything: Mixed simultaneous operation of decoders by different companies and digital systems on the same track (MOTOROLA / DCC / TRIX) |
· Marklin Motorola Marklin (old and new format) · Marklin Digital= (2-Rail DC) · Modeltreno Digital Line (k83 compatibles) · Uhlenbrock
"Freshness" guarantee: The Intellibox is software upgradeable - just download and go!
·
"Future-proof" and expandableIsnt the Intellibox a clever device?
· | Supports simultaneous multiple Digital formats |
· | Up to 128 speed steps (for NMRA compatible devices) |
· | Up to 9999 decoders addresses |
· | Virtual addresses -- youre not locked in to naming your engines 1-80 anymore; "alias" your engine with any id up to 9999 |
· | Create up to 10 consists of 2-4 locomotives each for double-, triple- or even quadruple-heading your locomotives |
· | Informative LCD display |
· | Select your language: English, German, Dutch, French, Spanish, Italian, Swedish, Portuguese |
· | Extremely intuitive to operate |
One Intellibox replaces many different devices
The Intellibox is able to drive digital layouts using either the Marklin-Motorola or the NMRA digital format or TRIX format - or all together! It is a very powerful and extremely compact Central Unit: thanks to its five microprocessors, it is able to provide the functionality of many different devices through a single unit. |
· Locomotive control - Through the two rotary encoders, two locomotives at a time can be steered independently. · Keyboard for turnout and signal control for switching up to 256 (Marklin) and/or 2048 (NMRA) electromagnetic devices (turnouts, signals, etc.). Eight of these at a time are directly under your control. The LCD display shows the current status of the currently selected 8 devices. · Powerful 3A Booster can power several locomotives simultaneously. Track voltage adjustable for gauge N and H0. · Built-in computer Interface - Connect directly to a computer. Allows you to operate your layout through a computer. · Programmer - Programming Uhlenbrock and NMRA decoders is extremely simple and easy: the user interface is menu driven, with clear messages written in your language.
Connections for all types of equipment
The Intellibox can be connected to many different devices. On the backside you can find connectors for the power supply (16VAC transformer), s88 feedback modules, serial interface, Digitrax LocoNet, Roco and LGB LokMaus, Lenz and Marklin Boosters, Programming Track (for decoder programming) and power output for the tracks. Control 80, Control 80f and Control IR, Keyboard and Memory Units made by Marklin and Arnold can be connected to the Intellibox sides. |
