Description
The Cross Hare from DCC Specialties provides all functions needed to control a one or two track grade crossing in a prototypical manner. The Cross Hare is designed to control a Tortoise turnout motor for mechanical operation of gates, provides sound and flashing light sequence. The Cross Hare uses up to eight optical sensors for train detection and for controlling the sequencing of the crossing. While the Cross Hare is designed to work with a dual track crossing, you can also use it with a single track crossing by only using 4 of the sensors. The Cross Hare will automatically detect whether it needs to watch one or two tracks. Should you not want to use the optical sensors, the Cross Hare will also operate using a simple on-off input such as from a block detector output such as the DCC Specialties Block Watcher 246-BLOCKWATCH. The Cross Hare Kit includes one Cross Hare Control Board, one Cross Hare Interface Board, one Connection Wire Harness (connects Cross Hare to interface board) and four Optic Cross Hare sensors. More can be purchased separately for double track configurations. Cross Hare also includes one TDS 28mm High Bass Speaker for sound.
