RR-CirKits ~ LCC LocoNet Gateway

RR-CirKits ~ LCC LocoNet Gateway

The LCC-LocoNet Gateway uses the CAN bus implementation of the NMRA
LCC.
• Communicates over the LCC CAN bus at 125Kb.
• Support for a total of 1024 Input/Output lines. (channels)
• CDI (Configuration Description Information) controlled programming via
Software.
• Boot Loader allows contact less user firmware upgrades over the LCC®
(Layout Command & Control) connection.
• Power is supplied from the LCC® bus. The LCC-LocoNet Gateway requires
20ma.
• Efficient switcher regulated 5VDC.
• Power may be supplied to the LCC Bus. (500mA per LCC connector)
• Option to create a stand alone LocoNet for systems without a Digitrax
command station. (this option bypasses the LocoNet isolation)
• Option to connect the Digitrax Railsync lines to the DCC pair of the LCC
cable to allow the command station to feed boosters over the LCC cable.
• Each segment of LCC® cable requires a terminator at each end.

The LCC-LocoNet Gateway has six connectors and four status indicators. Two of
these connectors are for connections to the LCC bus network. Two are used as
connections to the LocoNet lines. One is a power connection, and the remaining
connector is for the USB connection. This section covers the system connections
consisting of the CAN bus port connectors, LocoNet connectors, power connection,
USB port connection, and Status indicators.

The LCC-LocoNet Gateway requires a power source of between 7.5 and 27 volts
DC connected. This power may be provided through the 5.5mm by 2.1mm coaxial
connector and/or through the CAN bus power from another power source, such as
an LCC Power-Point, or the RR-CirKits LCC Repeater.
If powered via the coaxial power input, then the LCC-LocoNet Gateway can act as
the power source for a segment of LCC cable. The LCC-LocoNet Gateway acts as a
convenient way to power a small LCC network including other LCC boards over
standard RJ45 cables.

The LCC-LocoNet Gateway includes an internal LCC to USB interface. The USB
connection is optional and the Gateway function will operate with or without the
USB connection. The USB interface is only to the LCC, and does not serve as a
LocoNet interface. The USB interface can serve as the interface for the LCC
network instead of an LCC Buffer-USB or other interface device.
