DESCRIPTION:
Tx22 is a hand-held wireless transmitter intended to control up to 12 model railway train engines.
It has controls for Speed, Direction, Inertia, Lights, Coupling and Loco selection.
SPEED:
300° rotary control with 'center click'.
Full rotation can give 0-100% motor control or it can be used forward/reverse with 'center off' (depends on receiver).
The Speed knob controls Channel 1.
DIRECTION / LIGHTS:
3-way switch for Direction (changes only take effect when the locos is stopped and Inertia is not still in progress).
This switch can control lights instead of direction (eg: Rx60-22/Rx61-22).
The Direction switch controls Channel 3.
INERTIA:
300° rotary control with 'center click'.
32 step control over momentum/braking ranging from no effect to 60 seconds advance/retard.
The Inertia knob manipulates Speed (Channel 1).
ON/OFF:
Tx22 has an illuminated push-button on/off switch. It is best to switch Tx22 on before the receiver.
The Led flickers slightly while an Inertia transition is in progress.
The Led flashes more boldly when Binding.
SELECTA:
12-way rotary switch with positions matching those of a clock.
Allows 12 locos to brought in and out of service without touching them (requires Selecta enabled receivers eg: Rx6x-22 and Rx102-22).
The Selecta knob controls Channel 2.
BIND:
If a receiver has not previously been bound, it has to be 'paired' with Tx22. Binding is only required once per receiver.
1. Put your receiver into Bind mode (switch it on and wait for led to flash fast).
2. Choose the Tx22 Selecta switch position for this loco.
3. Press and hold the Bind push-button on Tx22.
4. Switch Tx22 on and then release the Bind button.
5. Binding is complete when the Led stops flashing.
COUPLING:
Once the Tx is switched on, the Bind button acts as a simple switch. This is used to control a servo for a coupling with Rx60-22 and Rx61-22.
TECHNOLOGY:
Tx22 uses the 2.4GHz band which requires no frequency channel control and is very resilient against interference.
The Binding process ensures that your receivers will only obey your Tx22. Any number of receivers can be bound to your Tx22.
Range is suitable for indoors and small outdoor sites.
COMPATIBILITY:
Tx22 is compatible with all DSM2 receivers. This includes all DelTang receivers.
The Direction/Light switch will ony have any effect with receivers that have these capabilities.
The Selecta switch will ony have any effect with receivers that have Selecta enabled.
BATTERY:
Tx22 is powered with a standard 9v PP3 battery.
It has some bare wires inside so care needs to be taken when installing the battery to avoid short circuits.
